PSI tries to account for the cost of bringing back in pages discarded by the MM LRU management. Currently the prime place for that is hooked into the bio submission path, which is a rather bad place: - it does not actually account I/O for non-block file systems, of which we have many - it adds overhead and a layering violation to the block layer Add the accounting into the two places in the core MM code that read pages into an address space by calling into ->read_folio and ->readahead so that the entire file system operations are covered, to broaden the coverage and allow removing the accounting in the block layer going forward. As psi_memstall_enter can deal with nested calls this will not lead to double accounting even while the bio annotations are still present.

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.
