Yes, there is tlb flush in try_to_migrate(), but it seems mmu notifier invalidate is missed for the THP migration case. I'm not quite sure why it is not needed, maybe just missed? So, you may need the below change too: diff --git a/mm/rmap.c b/mm/rmap.c index 2d29a57d29e8..e1c8b654563d 100644 --- a/mm/rmap.c +++ b/mm/rmap.c @@ -1749,6 +1749,8 @@ static bool try_to_migrate_one(struct page *page, struct vm_area_struct *vma, !PageTransCompound(page), page); set_pmd_migration_entry(&pvmw, page); + mmu_notifier_invalidate_range(mm, range.start, + range.end); continue; } #endif > > Signed-off-by: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Yang Shi <shy828301@xxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx> > Cc: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Heiko Carstens <hca@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Kirill A.
