[PATCH 5.17 658/772] mm, compaction: fast_find_migrateblock() should return pfn in the target zone

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

 



From: Rei Yamamoto <yamamoto.rei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bbe832b9db2e1ad21522f8f0bf02775fff8a0e0e upstream.

At present, pages not in the target zone are added to cc->migratepages
list in isolate_migratepages_block().  As a result, pages may migrate
between nodes unintentionally.

This would be a serious problem for older kernels without commit
a984226f457f849e ("mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of
mem_cgroup_page_lruvec"), because it can corrupt the lru list by
handling pages in list without holding proper lru_lock.

Avoid returning a pfn outside the target zone in the case that it is
not aligned with a pageblock boundary.  Otherwise
isolate_migratepages_block() will handle pages not in the target zone.
