The current udmabuf mmap uses a page fault mechanism to populate the vma.

However, the current udmabuf has already obtained and pinned the folio
upon completion of the creation.This means that the physical memory has
already been acquired, rather than being accessed dynamically. The
current page fault method only saves some page table memory.

As a result, the page fault mechanism has lost its purpose as a demanding
page. Due to the fact that page fault requires trapping into kernel mode
and filling in when accessing the corresponding virtual address in mmap,
this means that user mode access to virtual addresses needs to trap into
kernel mode.

Therefore, when creating a large size udmabuf, this represents a
considerable overhead.

Therefore, the current patch removes the page fault method of mmap and
instead fills it directly when mmap is triggered.

That might not work correctly. We intentionally remove the pages from the sgtable when it is shared between devices.

Additional to that the sgtable is *not* a page container, but rather a DMA address container. So that here is also a rather bad idea from the design side.

Sorry for that and patch 1 3 4's ops. I was not aware of this before. All idea to do this in mmap/vmap is just like system_heap and any other heaps that I learned.

But well to learn it.

BTW, sgtable is a wrong idea to maintain page, maybe we need to both setup page's array(order 0 page), and folio's array(only the folio, use for unpin)?

Or else, mapping page to vm_off and vma solely through folio's array is quite challenging. Moreover, even in this way, the memory overhead is smaller than the current unpin list.

Thanks for your correct.:)
