[LSF/MM/BPF TOPIC] Scalable Pagefaults

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

 



We should continue the conversation from last year on the topic of page
fault scalability.  I presume that by the time of the conference Suren's
current patches for per-VMA locks [1] [2] will be at least in Andrew's
tree, even if not quite upstream yet.  We will then be in a good place
to discuss enhancements:

 - File-backed VMAs
 - UFFD
 - Swap
 - Improve performance for low-thread-count apps
 - Full RCU handling of (some) page faults

Suren Baghdasaryan, Liam Howlett, Michel Lespinasse, Laurent Dufour,
Peter Xu would all be good participants.
