Hi, Alistair,

The overall patch looks good to me, however I have a few comments or questions
inlined below.

May be nicer to mention this rename in commit message (or make it a separate
patch)?

Should we add another short description for the newly added two types?
Otherwise the reader could get confused assuming the above comment is
explaining all four types, while it is for SWP_DEVICE_{READ|WRITE} only?

I looked at MMU_NOTIFIER_CLEAR document and it tells me:

 * @MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR: clear page table entry (many reasons for this like
 * madvise() or replacing a page by another one, ...).

Does MMU_NOTIFIER_CLEAR suite for this case?  Normally I think for such a case
(existing pte is invalid) we don't need to notify at all.  However from what I
read from the whole series, this seems to be a critical point where we'd like
to kick the owner/driver to synchronously stop doing atomic operations from the
device.  Not sure whether we'd like a new notifier type, or maybe at least
comment on why to use CLEAR?

IIUC a while loop of page_vma_mapped_walk() handles thps, however here it's
already in do_swap_page() so it's small pte only?  Meanwhile...

... I'm not sure whether passing in page would work for thp after all, as iiuc
we may need to pass in the subpage rather than the head page if so.

(As I read more, I feel more that maybe it's better to move this renaming
 change along with mmu_notifier_range_init_owner() rework into a separate
 patch, as even the changes are straightforward there're still quite a few
 places that need touch up; no strong opinion though)

Is this for hugetlb specific?  Can we drop this chunk if we know it's
PageAnon(), or is this a preparation for the future?

IMHO if possible we shouldn't introduce code that may never run, so to me that
sounds still better to be postponed until the hugetlbfs support (if there will
be).  So raise this question up.

Same here, not sure whether "if" would be easier.

Same question here: could the subpage be not the same as page at all?

We don't update RSS, right?  If so, can this be dropped?

I think I get the point of doing this (as after GUP the pte could have been
changed to point to another page), however it smells a bit odd to me (or it's
also possible that I'm not familiar enough with the code base..).  IIUC this is
the _only_ reason that we passed in "address" into try_to_protect() too, and
further into the ttp_args.

The odd part is the remote GUP should have walked the page table already, so
since the target here is the vaddr to replace, the 1st page table walk should
be able to both trylock/lock the page, then modify the pte with pgtable lock
held, return the locked page, then walk the rmap again to remove all the rest
of the ptes that are mapping to this page.  In that case before we call the
rmap_walk() we know this must be the page we want to take care of, and no one
will be able to restore the original mm pte either (as we're with the page
lock).  Then we don't need this check, neither do we need ttp->address.

However frankly I didn't think deeper on how to best implement that and how
many code changes are needed.  So just raise it up as question too here.

(For my own preference I actually prefer make_device_exclusive_entry(writable)
 and helpers defined like that, then these lines can be written as oneliner by
 passing in pte_write(); however that's quite subjective opinion and I saw
 there're discussions around that on patch 2, so I'll avoid commenting more)

Is this too general?  Either on the word "protect" or the comment after it, as
there're a lot of types of swap entries (and a lot of types of protect too..),
while it seems this is only for the device exclusive swap entries.

How about rename it to try_to_mark_device_exclusive?  Or even dropping the
"try_to_" (e.g. device_exclusive_mark_page())?

I think we can drop the PageAnon() check as it's just done above.

I feel like this chunk was copied over from try_to_unmap(), however is that
necessary?  Is it possible that the caller of make_device_exclusive_range()
pass in a temp stack vma during exec()?

Hmm, I see that try_to_protect() can fail even if npages returned from GUP, so
perhaps "number of pages successfully GUPed, however the page is marked for
exclusive access only if the page pointer is non-NULL", or something like that?

 today..)
