Hi,
Here is the latest "fast mremap" series. This just a repost with Kirill's
Acked-bys added. I would like this to be considered for linux -next. I also
dropped the CONFIG enablement patch for arm64 since I am yet to test it with
the new TLB flushing code that is in very recent kernel releases. (None of my
arm64 devices run mainline right now.) so I will post the arm64 enablement once
I get to that. The performance numbers in the series are for x86.
List of patches in series:
(1) mm: select HAVE_MOVE_PMD in x86 for faster mremap
(2) mm: speed up mremap by 20x on large regions (v4)
v1->v2: Added support for per-arch enablement (Kirill Shutemov)
v2->v3: Updated commit message to state the optimization may also
run for non-thp type of systems (Daniel Col).
v3->v4: Remove useless pmd_lock check (Kirill Shutemov)
Rebased ontop of Linus's master, updated perf results based
on x86 testing. Added Kirill's Acks.
(3) mm: treewide: remove unused address argument from pte_alloc functions (v2)
v1->v2: fix arch/um/ prototype which was missed in v1 (Anton Ivanov)
update changelog with manual fixups for m68k and microblaze.
not included - (4) mm: select HAVE_MOVE_PMD in arm64 for faster mremap
This patch is dropped since last posting pending further performance
testing on arm64 with new TLB gather updates. See notes in patch
titled "mm: speed up mremap by 500x on large regions" for more
details.
This breaks UML build:
CC mm/mremap.o
mm/mremap.c: In function ‘move_normal_pmd’:
mm/mremap.c:229:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘set_pmd_at’; did you mean ‘set_pte_at’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
set_pmd_at(mm, new_addr, new_pmd, pmd);
^~~~~~~~~~
set_pte_at
CC crypto/rng.o
CC fs/direct-io.o
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
To test yourself, just run on a x86 box:
$ make defconfig ARCH=um
$ make linux ARCH=um
Thanks,
//richard
UM somehow managed to miss one of the 3-level functions, I sent a patch
at some point to add to the mmremap series, but it looks like it did not
get included in the final version.
You need these two incremental on top of Joel's patch. Richard - feel
free to relocate the actual implementation of the set_pgd_at elsewhere -
