A folio turns into a Workingset during: 1) shrink_active_list() placing the folio from active to inactive list. 2) When a workingset transition is happening during the folio refault. And when Workingset is set on a folio, PSI for memory can be accounted during a) That folio is being reclaimed and b) Refault of that folio, for usual reclaims. This accounting of PSI for memory is not consistent for reclaim + refault operation between usual reclaim and madvise(COLD/PAGEOUT) which deactivate or proactively reclaim a folio: a) A folio started at inactive and moved to active as part of accesses. Workingset is absent on the folio thus refault of it when reclaimed through MADV_PAGEOUT operation doesn't account for PSI. b) When the same folio transition from inactive->active and then to inactive through shrink_active_list(). Workingset is set on the folio thus refault of it when reclaimed through MADV_PAGEOUT operation accounts for PSI. c) When the same folio is part of active list directly as a result of folio refault and this was a workingset folio prior to eviction. Workingset is set on the folio thus the refault of it when reclaimed through MADV_PAGEOUT/MADV_COLD operation accounts for PSI. d) MADV_COLD transfers the folio from active list to inactive list. Such folios may not have the Workingset thus refault operation on such folio doesn't account for PSI. As said above, refault operation caused because of MADV_PAGEOUT on a folio is accounts for memory PSI in b) and c) but not in a). Refault caused by the reclaim of a folio on which MADV_COLD is performed accounts memory PSI in c) but not in d). These behaviours are inconsistent w.r.t usual reclaim + refault operation. Make this PSI accounting always consistent by turning a folio into a workingset one whenever it is leaving the active list. Also, accounting of PSI on a folio whenever it leaves the active list as part of the MADV_COLD/PAGEOUT operation helps the users whether they are operating on proper folios[1].

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.
