Subject: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v2 2/2] selftests/ve: check memory.numa_migrate keeps the folio order
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 15:17:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028-b4-prep-khorenko-vstor-151607-numa-migrate-order-v2-2-b973a82a5b0c@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028-b4-prep-khorenko-vstor-151607-numa-migrate-order-v2-0-b973a82a5b0c@virtuozzo.com>
memcg_numa_migrate_new_folio() used to allocate a PMD-sized destination
for every large folio. A page cache folio of a smaller order then ended
up with a 512-page destination carrying its index and reference count.
Only the source pages were copied into it, so a read of the folios that
followed in the same 2 MB range was served from the uninitialised part
of the destination, and the inode died in clear_inode() on eviction.
The test writes a file on an XFS image, where 64K writes produce large
folios, from a cgroup bound to one NUMA node, migrates the cgroup to a
second node, reads the file back against the written pattern and checks
through memory.numa_stat that something was migrated. The stat read is
retried for a while, as memcg flushes its per-cpu counters lazily. On an
unfixed kernel the comparison fails; the test then leaves the image
mounted, because unlinking or unmounting would evict the inode and
crash the node.
The folio sizes are not taken on faith: before the migration the test
maps the file and reads the compound flags of its pages through
/proc/self/pagemap and /proc/kpageflags. A file without a large folio
fails the test with a message, because it would pass without touching
the bug.
It needs root, two NUMA nodes with memory (numa=fake=2 is enough),
cgroup2 with the memory and cpuset controllers, and mkfs.xfs, and skips
otherwise.
