This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled maple_tree: set the node limit when creating a new root node to the 6.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: maple_tree-set-the-node-limit-when-creating-a-new-root-node.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 3c769fd88b9742954763a968e84de09f7ad78cfe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2023 11:54:37 +0800 Subject: maple_tree: set the node limit when creating a new root node From: Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3c769fd88b9742954763a968e84de09f7ad78cfe upstream. Set the node limit of the root node so that the last pivot of all nodes is the node limit (if the node is not full). This patch also fixes a bug in mas_rev_awalk(). Effectively, always setting a maximum makes mas_logical_pivot() behave as mas_safe_pivot(). Without this fix, it is possible that very small tasks would fail to find the correct gap. Although this has not been observed with real tasks, it has been reported to happen in m68k nommu running the maple tree tests.
