Message-ID: <20230201004524.8DCEAC433EF@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-swapfile-add-cond_resched-in-get_swap_pages.patch

of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/swapfile: add cond_resched() in get_swap_pages()
Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2023 09:47:57 +0000
The softlockup still occurs in get_swap_pages() under memory pressure. 64
CPU cores, 64GB memory, and 28 zram devices, the disksize of each zram
device is 50MB with same priority as si. Use the stress-ng tool to
increase memory pressure, causing the system to oom frequently.
The plist_for_each_entry_safe() loops in get_swap_pages() could reach tens
of thousands of times to find available space (extreme case:
cond_resched() is not called in scan_swap_map_slots()). Let's add
cond_resched() into get_swap_pages() when failed to find available space
to avoid softlockup.
