When memory is migrated to the GPU it is likely to be accessed by GPU
code soon afterwards. Instead of waiting for a GPU fault, map the
migrated memory into the GPU page tables with the same access permissions
as the source CPU page table entries. This preserves copy on write
semantics.

This patch is based on top of Christoph Hellwig's 9 patch series
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190729234611.GC7171@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u
"turn the hmm migrate_vma upside down" but without patch 9
"mm: remove the unused MIGRATE_PFN_WRITE" and adds a use for the flag.

This looks useful.  I've already dropped that patch for the pending
resend.

Thanks.


  static unsigned long nouveau_dmem_migrate_copy_one(struct nouveau_drm *drm,
-		struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long addr,
-		unsigned long src, dma_addr_t *dma_addr)
+		struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long src,
+		dma_addr_t *dma_addr, u64 *pfn)

I'll pick up the removal of the not needed addr argument for the patch
introducing nouveau_dmem_migrate_copy_one, thanks,

  static void nouveau_dmem_migrate_chunk(struct migrate_vma *args,
-		struct nouveau_drm *drm, dma_addr_t *dma_addrs)
+		struct nouveau_drm *drm, dma_addr_t *dma_addrs, u64 *pfns)
  {
  	struct nouveau_fence *fence;
  	unsigned long addr = args->start, nr_dma = 0, i;
for (i = 0; addr < args->end; i++) {
  		args->dst[i] = nouveau_dmem_migrate_copy_one(drm, args->vma,
-				addr, args->src[i], &dma_addrs[nr_dma]);
+				args->src[i], &dma_addrs[nr_dma], &pfns[i]);

Nit: I find the &pfns[i] way to pass the argument a little weird to read.
Why not "pfns + i"?

OK, will do in v2.
Should I convert to "dma_addrs + nr_dma" too?

+nouveau_pfns_alloc(unsigned long npages)

Can we use struct_size here?

Yes, good suggestion.

+		return;
+	}
+	mutex_unlock(&svm->mutex);

Given that nouveau_find_svmm doesn't take any kind of reference, what
gurantees svmm doesn't go away after dropping the lock?

I asked Ben and Jerome about this too.
I'm still looking into it.

nouveau_dmem.c and nouveau_svm.c are both built conditional on
CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_SVM, so there is no need for stubs here.


Good point. I'll remove them in v2.
