However, it still would try to take the pool_lock in an attempt to save a stack trace in the current pool (if space is available). This could result in deadlock if an NMI is handled while pool_lock is already held. To avoid deadlock, only try to take the lock in NMI context and give up if unsuccessful. The documentation is fixed to clearly convey this.

That will cause the VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS() in const_folio_flags() to trigger when it shouldn't. Fortunately, we don't need to call PageTail() here; it's fine to have a pointer to a virtual alias of the page's flag word rather than the real page's flag word.

Anders and Philippe have reported that recent kernels occasionally hang when used with NFS in readahead code. The problem has been bisected to 7c877586da3 ("readahead: properly shorten readahead when falling back to do_page_cache_ra()"). The cause of the problem is that ra->size can be shrunk by read_pages() call and subsequently we end up calling do_page_cache_ra() with negative (read huge positive) number of pages. Let's revert 7c877586da3 for now until we can find a proper way how the logic in read_pages() and page_cache_ra_order() can coexist. This can lead to reduced readahead throughput due to readahead window confusion but that's better than outright hangs.

Despite the wait queue being empty, the condition, allow_direct_reclaim(pgdat), may still be returning false, causing it to continue looping. In some cases, reclaimable pages exist (zone_reclaimable_pages() returns > 0), but calculations of pfmemalloc_reserve and free_pages result in wmark_ok being false. And then, despite the pgdat->kswapd_wait queue being non-empty, kswapd is not woken up, further exacerbating the problem: crash> px ((struct pglist_data *) 0xffff00817fffe540)->kswapd_highest_zoneidx $775 = __MAX_NR_ZONES This patch modifies allow_direct_reclaim() to wake kswapd if the pgdat->kswapd_wait queue is active, regardless of whether wmark_ok is true or false. This change ensures kswapd does not miss wake-ups under high memory pressure, reducing the risk of task stalls in the throttled reclaim path.

The hugetlb_dio test not only uses the same strings for every test that is run but it also uses different strings for test passes and failures which means that test automation is unable to follow what the test is doing at all. Pull the existing duplicated logging of the number of free huge pages before and after the test out of the conditional and replace that and the logging of the result with a single ksft_print_result() which incorporates the parameters passed into the test into the output.
