Consider the following case: - mark_idle() cutoff time 8h - mark_idle() cutoff time 4h - writeback() idle - will writeback entries with cutoff time 8h, while it should only pick entries with cutoff time 4h Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241028073529.1383980-3-senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: Shin Kawamura <kawasin@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) --- a/drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c~zram-clear-idle-flag-in-mark_idle +++ a/drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c @@ -410,6 +410,8 @@ static void mark_idle(struct zram *zram, #endif if (is_idle) zram_set_flag(zram, index, ZRAM_IDLE); + else + zram_clear_flag(zram, index, ZRAM_IDLE); zram_slot_unlock(zram, index); } } _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxxxxx are zram-introduce-zram_pp_slot-flag.patch zram-permit-only-one-post-processing-operation-at-a-time.patch zram-rework-recompress-target-selection-strategy.patch zram-rework-recompress-target-selection-strategy-fix.patch zram-rework-writeback-target-selection-strategy.patch zram-do-not-mark-idle-slots-that-cannot-be-idle.patch zram-reshuffle-zram_free_page-flags-operations.patch zram-remove-under_wb-and-simplify-writeback.patch zram-do-not-open-code-comp-priority-0.patch zram-clear-idle-flag-after-recompression.patch zram-clear-idle-flag-in-mark_idle.patch
