Subject: mm: migrate: prevent memory cgroup release in folio_migrate_mapping()
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=53050890802e25b6b04ab5b243c90e42d10ef777;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

mm: migrate: prevent memory cgroup release in folio_migrate_mapping()

In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding memory
cgroup.  To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to hold the rcu
read lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup returned by
folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.

In __folio_migrate_mapping(), the rcu read lock is employed to safeguard
against the release of the memory cgroup in folio_migrate_mapping().

This serves as a preparatory measure for the reparenting of the LRU pages.
