[PATCH v4 12/31] mm: page_io: prevent memory cgroup release in page_io module
Posted by Qi Zheng 4 days, 3 hours ago
From: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com>

In the near future, a folio will no longer pin its corresponding
memory cgroup. To ensure safety, it will only be appropriate to
hold the rcu read lock or acquire a reference to the memory cgroup
returned by folio_memcg(), thereby preventing it from being released.

In the current patch, the rcu read lock is employed to safeguard
against the release of the memory cgroup in swap_writeout() and
bio_associate_blkg_from_page().

This serves as a preparatory measure for the reparenting of the
LRU pages.
