[PATCH 0/3] mm: Fix bug affecting swapping in MTE tagged pages

From: Peter Collingbourne
Date: Fri May 12 2023 - 19:58:49 EST


This patch series reworks the logic that handles swapping in page
metadata to fix a reported bug [1] where metadata can sometimes not
be swapped in correctly after commit c145e0b47c77 ("mm: streamline COW
logic in do_swap_page()").

Peter Collingbourne (3):
mm: Move arch_do_swap_page() call to before swap_free()
mm: Call arch_swap_restore() from arch_do_swap_page() and deprecate
the latter

tag issue
