Subject: mm/vmscan: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in shrink_lruvec()
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 02:57:36 -0700

I am seeing some rcu_tasks stalls in the Meta fleet during reclaim.

  INFO: rcu_tasks detected stalls on tasks:
	0000000088620d09: .. nvcsw: 6735/6735 holdout: 1 idle_cpu: -1/8
	task:GlobalCPUThread state:R  running task  pid:2552016 tgid:2524552
  Call Trace:
   shrink_lruvec
   mem_cgroup_iter
   shrink_node
   do_try_to_free_pages
   try_to_free_pages
   __alloc_frozen_pages_noprof
   alloc_pages_noprof
   pte_alloc_one
   __pte_alloc
   handle_mm_fault

Nothing promises direct reclaim returns in bounded time, and the scan loop
in shrink_lruvec() only calls cond_resched(), which is a no-op on
PREEMPTION kernels.  Involuntary preemption is not a Tasks-RCU quiescent
state, so the reclaiming task never reports one and becomes a holdout.

Upgrade it to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), which reports a quiescent state
even when cond_resched() does nothing.

PS: This has been discussed in [1]
