This is the part I don't understand.  The path to calling
folio_add_lru_vma() comes directly from vma_alloc_zeroed_movable_folio():

[snip]

(sorry that's a lot of lines).  But there's _nowhere_ there that sets
PG_locked.  It's a freshly allocated page; all page flags (that are
actually flags; ignore the stuff up at the top) should be clear.  We
even check that with PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP.  Plus, it doesn't
make sense that we'd start I/O; the page is freshly allocated, full of
zeroes; there's no backing store to read the page from.

It really feels like this page was freed while it was still under I/O
and it's been reallocated to this victim process.

I'm going to try a few things and see if I can figure this out.

I'm having trouble reproducing this.  Can you get it to happen reliably?

This is what I'm currently running with, and it doesn't trigger.
I'd expect it to if we were going to hit the KCSAN bug.

Hello, Mr. Matthew,

I have applied your patch to 6.6-rc1 torvalds tree vanilla kernel, and so far there was not KCSAN
report on folio_batch_move_lru() repeated. :-/

I realise that it would be good if this is made reproducible, so I will try a couple of other things ...

I am not that familiar with the memory management core, so you should probably tell me what to expect.

So far I got the best match (but probably unrelated) from this KCSAN report
(from secondary_startup_64_no_verify() to bio_endio() the stacktrace is the same):

However, I have upgraded to 6.6-rc1 torvalds tree kernel in the meantime.

If you want me, I could test with the 6.5 + your patch.

Best regards,
