[PATCH v2 16/18] mm/memremap_pages: Support initializing pages to a zero reference count

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

 



The initial memremap_pages() implementation inherited the
__init_single_page() default of pages starting life with an elevated
reference count. This originally allowed for the page->pgmap pointer to
alias with the storage for page->lru since a page was only allowed to be
on an lru list when its reference count was zero.

Since then, 'struct page' definition cleanups have arranged for
dedicated space for the ZONE_DEVICE page metadata, and the
MEMORY_DEVICE_{PRIVATE,COHERENT} work has arranged for the 1 -> 0
page->_refcount transition to route the page to free_zone_device_page()
and not the core-mm page-free. With those cleanups in place and with
filesystem-dax and device-dax now converted to take and drop references
at map and truncate time, it is possible to start MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX
and MEMORY_DEVICE_GENERIC reference counts at 0.

MEMORY_DEVICE_{PRIVATE,COHERENT} still expect that their ZONE_DEVICE
pages start life at _refcount 1, so make that the default if
pgmap->init_mode is left at zero.
