[PATCH v2] mm: shmem: fix getting incorrect lruvec when replacing a shmem folio
From: Baolin Wang
Date: Thu Jun 13 2024 - 20:49:39 EST
When testing shmem swapin, I encountered the warning below on my machine.
The reason is that replacing an old shmem folio with a new one causes
mem_cgroup_migrate() to clear the old folio's memcg data. As a result,
the old folio cannot get the correct memcg's lruvec needed to remove itself
from the LRU list when it is being freed. This could lead to possible serious
problems, such as LRU list crashes due to holding the wrong LRU lock, and
incorrect LRU statistics.
To fix this issue, we can fallback to use the mem_cgroup_replace_folio()
to replace the old shmem folio.
