From: Björn Töpel <bjorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx> The RISC-V port requires that kernel PGD entries are to be synchronized between MMs. This is done via the vmalloc_fault() function, that simply copies the PGD entries from init_mm to the faulting one. Historically, faulting in PGD entries have been a source for both bugs [1], and poor performance. One way to get rid of vmalloc faults is by pre-allocating the PGD entries. Pre-allocating the entries potientially wastes 64 * 4K (65 on SV39). The pre-allocation function is pulled from Jörg Rödel's x86 work, with the addition of 3-level page tables (PMD allocations). The pmd_alloc() function needs the ptlock cache to be initialized (when split page locks is enabled), so the pre-allocation is done in a RISC-V specific pgtable_cache_init() implementation. Pre-allocate the kernel PGD entries for the vmalloc/modules area, but only for 64b platforms.
