Message-ID: <20260324214228.03354C19424@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm, swap: mark bad slots in swap table directly
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-swap-mark-bad-slots-in-swap-table-directly.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm, swap: mark bad slots in swap table directly
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2026 04:06:32 +0800
In preparing the deprecating swap_map, mark bad slots in the swap table
too when setting SWAP_MAP_BAD in swap_map. Also, refine the swap table
sanity check on freeing to adapt to the bad slots change. For swapoff,
the bad slots count must match the cluster usage count, as nothing should
touch them, and they contribute to the cluster usage count on swapon. For
ordinary swap table freeing, the swap table of clusters with bad slots
should never be freed since the cluster usage count never reaches zero.
