Subject: [PATCH v5 4/5] mm: memory_failure: Generalize extra_pins handling to all MF_DELAYED cases
Date: Sun, 23 Aug 2026 19:40:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260823-memory-failure-mf-delayed-fix-v5-4-d97a5703e45a@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260823-memory-failure-mf-delayed-fix-v5-0-d97a5703e45a@google.com>
Generalize extra_pins handling to all MF_DELAYED cases not only
shmem_mapping.
If MF_DELAYED is returned, the filemap continues to hold refcounts on the
folio. Hence, take that into account when checking for extra refcounts.
As clarified in an earlier patch, a return value of MF_DELAYED implies that
the page still has elevated refcounts. Hence, set extra_pins to true if the
return value is MF_DELAYED. This is aligned with the implementation in
me_swapcache_dirty(), where, if a folio is still in the swap cache, ret is
set to MF_DELAYED and extra_pins is set to true.
