Subject: [PATCH v2 03/26] mm/fbatch: temporarily disable lazyfree and mlock+munlock batching
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 02:46:45 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5953f6aa-ca44-c9a2-97e1-a5b3b92e9e50@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e28f9a94-4339-f8ac-8301-6be3c9b5b7ce@google.com>
It will not matter if we occasionally get activation or deactivation
wrong; but a mistaken lazyfree (MADV_FREE) would likely cause dataloss.
So disable its batching while reworking the per-cpu fbatch handling,
then re-enable it with more thought afterwards.
Similarly disable mlock+munlock batching temporarily: they will need
some redesign before re-enabling. Just insert one disabling line for
now, leaving the rest of the code as it was, for consideration later.
