Hi Yosry, I am preparing the follow-up patch so I can submit it once this patch-series is merged to mm-unstable (since these changes have dependencies on my existing patch). Is my understanding correct that the folio lock also protects against swapoff happening in between addition of the entry to the xarray and initializing its members, which will need to be valid for swapoff --> ... -> free_swap_slot() --> zswap_invalidate() ? Would appreciate it if you can confirm. Thanks, Kanchana
