Ok yeah, cachestat() holds the rcu read lock, so workingset_test_recent() can't do a sleepable rstat flush.

I think the easiest fix would be to flush rstat from the root down (NULL) in filemap_cachestat(), before the rcu section, and add a flag to workingset_test_recent() to forego it. Nhat?

You're right. I think it's been broken since this commit:

b00684722262 mm: workingset: move the stats flush into workingset_test_recent()

which moves the stats flushing from the refault step (before rcu read lock section) to inside workingset_test_recent(). I believe that's 6.8, 6.9, and 6.10 we need to fix?

The fix sounds reasonable to me :) Let me whip up something real quick.

PATCH 1/1 cachestat: do not flush stats in recency check

In reply to syzbot

syzbot detects that cachestat() is flushing stats, which can sleep, in its RCU read section (see [1]). This is done in the workingset_test_recent() step (which checks if the folio's eviction is recent).

Move the stat flushing step to before the RCU read section of cachestat, and skip stat flushing during the recency check.
