Hi Rik, I applied your patch to linux-next kernel, then divide error happened when I ran ltp stress test. The divide error occurred on the following div_u64(), so the following should be also fixed... static unsigned long bdi_position_ratio(struct backing_dev_info *bdi, unsigned long thresh, unsigned long bg_thresh, unsigned long dirty, unsigned long bdi_thresh, unsigned long bdi_dirty) { ... if (bdi_dirty < x_intercept - span / 4) { pos_ratio = div_u64(pos_ratio * (x_intercept - bdi_dirty), x_intercept - bdi_setpoint + 1); The result of disassemble is as follows. 0xffffffff8116f520 <bdi_position_ratio+0xf0>: mov %rsi,%rax 0xffffffff8116f523 <bdi_position_ratio+0xf3>: sub %ebx,%esi 0xffffffff8116f525 <bdi_position_ratio+0xf5>: xor %edx,%edx 0xffffffff8116f527 <bdi_position_ratio+0xf7>: sub %r13,%rax 0xffffffff8116f52a <bdi_position_ratio+0xfa>: add $0x1,%esi 0xffffffff8116f52d <bdi_position_ratio+0xfd>: imul %r11,%rax 0xffffffff8116f531 <bdi_position_ratio+0x101>: div %rsi <= divide error!

It is possible for "limit - setpoint + 1" to equal zero, leading to a divide by zero error. Blindly adding 1 to "limit - setpoint" is not working, so we need to actually test the divisor before calling div64.
