[PATCH v1 07/18] mm/memory: use folio_mapcount() in zap_present_folio_ptes()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary. In zap_present_folio_ptes(), let's simply check
the folio mapcount(). If there is some issue, it will underflow at some
point either way when unmapping.

As indicated already in commit 10ebac4f95e7 ("mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap
with PTE-mapped THP"), we already documented "If we ever have a cheap
folio_mapcount(), we might just want to check for underflows there.".

There is no change for small folios. For large folios, we'll now catch
more underflows when batch-unmapping, because instead of only testing
the mapcount of the first subpage, we'll test if the folio mapcount
underflows.
