[PATCH 5.13 122/127] mm/hwpoison: retry with shake_page() for unhandlable pages

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fcc00621d88b274b5dffd8daeea71d0e4c28b84e ]

HWPoisonHandlable() sometimes returns false for typical user pages due
to races with average memory events like transfers over LRU lists.  This
causes failures in hwpoison handling.

There's retry code for such a case but does not work because the retry
loop reaches the retry limit too quickly before the page settles down to
handlable state.  Let get_any_page() call shake_page() to fix it.
