Hi,
Sorry for the noise and for sending an insufficiently validated conclusion earlier. I rechecked this more carefully, and my earlier conclusion was not well founded.
I can no longer justify
memcg_validate_race: fixed start/end mismatch (1 -> 0)
as evidence for this patch.
I rebuilt an apples-to-apples baseline/fixed pair from the same source base and reran the QEMU validation. The result is:
- baseline and fixed both reproduce the warning under the original remount-based harness
- baseline and fixed both stop reproducing it under a no-remount harness
- the validation workers still start in the no-remount case
So this warning does not distinguish the wrapper patch from baseline behavior. At this point it appears to be induced by the remount/rebind test harness itself, not evidence of a wrapper-specific regression.
I do not have a reproducer that distinguishes baseline from the patched kernel, so I am dropping this patch from this line of argument.
