From a84edd52f0a0fa193f0f685769939cf84510755b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Vishal Moola (Oracle)" Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2025 19:10:24 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/compaction: fix bug in hugetlb handling pathway The compaction code doesn't take references on pages until we're certain we should attempt to handle it. In the hugetlb case, isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page() may return -EBUSY without taking a reference to the folio associated with our pfn. If our folio's refcount drops to 0, compound_nr() becomes unpredictable, making low_pfn and nr_scanned unreliable. The user-visible effect is minimal - this should rarely happen (if ever). Fix this by storing the folio statistics earlier on the stack (just like the THP and Buddy cases). Also revert commit 66fe1cf7f581 ("mm: compaction: use helper compound_nr in isolate_migratepages_block") to make backporting easier.
