It failed because the page has slab, page count is 1. Sorry for not
clarifying this.
"skbuff: !sendpage_ok - page: 0x54f9f140 (pfn: 120757). is_slab: 1, page_count: 1"
^
The print I used:
pr_info(
"!sendpage_ok - page: 0x%p (pfn: %lx). is_slab: %u, page_count: %u\n",
(void *)page,
page_to_pfn(page),
page_address(page),
!!PageSlab(page),
page_count(page)
);
Regarding the origin of the IO, I haven't investigated it yet. I suspect
the first 2 pages are the superblocks of the raid (mdp_superblock_1 and
bitmap_super_s) and the rest of the IO is the bitmap.
