Message-ID: <20261107193956.C154C1F0089F@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/khugepaged: don't map folios that are not uptodate in MADV_COLLAPSE
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-khugepaged-dont-map-folios-that-are-not-uptodate-in-madv_collapse.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: mm/khugepaged: don't map folios that are not uptodate in MADV_COLLAPSE
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2026 19:16:44 +0100

madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) can map PMD-sized pagecache folios that are not
uptodate.  For example, shmem fallocate() can put such folios into the
page cache.

collapse_file() already refuses to proceed with folios that are not
uptodate.  Let's just do the same in try_collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and
skip such folios, leaving handling to the page faults.

Note that collapse_file() effectively clears shmem folios through
shmem_get_folio(); let's keep this fix simple and simply let the page
fault path deal with that.
