The quilt patch titled Subject: zsmalloc: fix races between modifications of fullness and isolated has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was zsmalloc-fix-races-between-modifications-of-fullness-and-isolated.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrew Yang andrew.yang@mediatek.com Subject: zsmalloc: fix races between modifications of fullness and isolated Date: Fri, 21 Jul 2023 14:37:01 +0800
We encountered many kernel exceptions of VM_BUG_ON(zspage->isolated == 0) in dec_zspage_isolation() and BUG_ON(!pages[1]) in zs_unmap_object() lately. This issue only occurs when migration and reclamation occur at the same time.
With our memory stress test, we can reproduce this issue several times a day. We have no idea why no one else encountered this issue. BTW, we switched to the new kernel version with this defect a few months ago.
Since fullness and isolated share the same unsigned int, modifications of them should be protected by the same lock.
