This bug requests that multi-gen LRU be built into the kernel, but be disabled by default, such that users can opt-in as needed. [Fix] Set CONFIG_LRU_GEN=y and CONFIG_LRU_GEN_ENABLED=n. [Test Plan] Google has provided the expected output: $ cat /boot/config-$(uname -r) | grep LRU CONFIG_LRU_GEN=y # CONFIG_LRU_GEN_ENABLED is not set # CONFIG_LRU_GEN_STATS is not set Based on the docs here: https://docs.kernel.org/next/admin-guide/mm/multigen_lru.html You can also check this module is available but disabled by verifying this output: $ cat /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled 0x0000 [Where problems could occur] The only expected change in behavior is that multi-gen LRU is available for customers, but the default behavior should be identical. By having this module available, it's possible that the bug responsible for originally disabling multi-gen LRU could come up again, but it should only impact customers that opt-in.
