Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: mm: migration: do not try to migrate unmapped anonymous pages
Problem Details: rmap_walk_anon() was triggering errors in memory compaction that look like use-after-free errors. The problem is that between the page being isolated from the LRU and rcu_read_lock() being taken, the mapcount of the page dropped to 0 and the anon_vma gets freed. This can happen during memory compacti...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems
Problem Details: Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, i...
