[PATCH v3 02/12] mm: memcontrol: introduce compact_folio_lruvec_lock_irqsave

From: Muchun Song
Date: Wed Feb 16 2022 - 06:52:18 EST


If we reuse the objcg APIs to charge LRU pages, the folio_memcg()
can be changed when the LRU pages reparented. In this case, we need
to acquire the new lruvec lock.

lruvec = folio_lruvec(folio);

// The page is reparented.

compact_lock_irqsave(&lruvec->lru_lock, &flags, cc);

// Acquired the wrong lruvec lock and need to retry.

But compact_lock_irqsave() only take lruvec lock as the parameter,
we cannot aware this change. If it can take the page as parameter
to acquire the lruvec lock. When the page memcg is changed, we can
use the folio_memcg() detect whether we need to reacquire the new
lruvec lock. So compact_lock_irqsave() is not suitable for us.
Similar to folio_lruvec_lock_irqsave(), introduce
compact_folio_lruvec_lock_irqsave() to acquire the lruvec lock in
the compaction routine.
