Subject: [patch 2/5] mm,thp: stop leaking unreleased file pages
Date: Wed, 27 May 2020 22:20:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200528052043.TKW9wStFk%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200527222015.62ba8592af63dae12ab58ffe@linux-foundation.org>
From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>
Subject: mm,thp: stop leaking unreleased file pages
When collapse_file() calls try_to_release_page(), it has already isolated
the page: so if releasing buffers happens to fail (as it sometimes does),
remember to putback_lru_page(): otherwise that page is left unreclaimable
and unfreeable, and the file extent uncollapsible.
