Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Commit 3fea5a49 ("mm: memcontrol: convert page cache to a new mem_cgroup_charge() API") introduced a bug in __add_to_page_cache_locked() causing the following splat: page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_memcg(page)) pages's memcg:ffff8889a4116000 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at mm/memcontrol.c:2924! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI CPU: 35 PID: 12345 Comm: cat Tainted: G S W I 5.11.0-rc4-debug+ #1 Hardware name: HP HP Z8 G4 Workstation/81C7, BIOS P60 v01.25 12/06/2017 RIP: commit_charge+0xf4/0x130 Call Trace: mem_cgroup_charge+0x175/0x770 __add_to_page_cache_locked+0x712/0xad0 add_to_page_cache_lru+0xc5/0x1f0 cachefiles_read_or_alloc_pages+0x895/0x2e10 [cachefiles] __fscache_read_or_alloc_pages+0x6c0/0xa00 [fscache] __nfs_readpages_from_fscache+0x16d/0x630 [nfs] nfs_readpages+0x24e/0x540 [nfs] read_pages+0x5b1/0xc40 page_cache_ra_unbounded+0x460/0x750 generic_file_buffered_read_get_pages+0x290/0x1710 generic_file_buffered_read+0x2a9/0xc30 nfs_file_read+0x13f/0x230 [nfs] new_sync_read+0x3af/0x610 vfs_read+0x339/0x4b0 ksys_read+0xf1/0x1c0 do_syscall_64+0x33/0x40 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Before that commit, there was a try_charge() and commit_charge() in __add_to_page_cache_locked(). These two separated charge functions were replaced by a single mem_cgroup_charge(). However, it forgot to add a matching mem_cgroup_uncharge() when the xarray insertion failed with the page released back to the pool. Fix this by adding a mem_cgroup_uncharge() call when insertion error happens.
