Hi Huacai,

After failed over and over and over again, I think I've found the reason
why we can't define tlb_virt_to_page as macro or inline function in            
asm/page.h or asm/pgtable.h. :)

I'll go through this step by step.

If I put tlb_virt_to_page in asm/page.h as following,

=====================================================
+static inline struct page *tlb_virt_to_page(unsigned long kaddr)
+{
+       return pte_page(*virt_to_kpte(kaddr));
+}
=====================================================

and compile kernel, gcc says to me the following error.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
  CC      arch/loongarch/kernel/asm-offsets.s
In file included from ./include/linux/shm.h:6,
                 from ./include/linux/sched.h:16,
                 from arch/loongarch/kernel/asm-offsets.c:8:
./arch/loongarch/include/asm/page.h: In function ‘tlb_virt_to_page’:
./arch/loongarch/include/asm/page.h:126:16: error: implicit declaration of function ‘pte_page’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  126 |         return pte_page(*virt_to_kpte(kaddr));
      |                ^~~~~~~~
---------------------------------------------------------------------

"pte_page" is declared in asm/pgtable.h, so I put "#include
<asm/pgtable.h>" ahead, like this,

=====================================================
+#include <asm/pgtable.h>
+static inline struct page *tlb_virt_to_page(unsigned long kaddr)
+{
+       return pte_page(*virt_to_kpte(kaddr));
+}
=====================================================

then compile again, gcc says,

---------------------------------------------------------------------
  CC      arch/loongarch/kernel/asm-offsets.s

      |                          ^~~~~~~~~~~~
---------------------------------------------------------------------

"virt_to_kpte" is defined in linux/pgtable.h, consequently I add "#include
<linux/pgtable.h>" as well,

=====================================================
+#include <asm/pgtable.h>
+#include <linux/pgtable.h>
+static inline struct page *tlb_virt_to_page(unsigned long kaddr)
+{
+       return pte_page(*virt_to_kpte(kaddr));
+}
=====================================================

and continue,

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The first line above shows that it compiled successfully for the
asm-offsets module.  That's fair enough.  Actually, the point is the
next one (invalid use of undefined type 'struct mm_struct').

As we all know, before the compiler compiles, it expands the header
files first.  For this example, it firstly expands from the header file
vdso.h, then the mm.h file and so on.  We can see that the line 436 of
asm/pgtable.h are using 'struct mm_struct'.  When we backtrack to a file
that has been previously expanded, it's obvious that the definition of
mm_struct does not appear in the expanded file.  Instead, it appears
afterward (mm_types.h).

To be clear, I'll exemplify this case with a cheap ASCII diagram.

                                                                 ... <-|
                    we're using 'mm_struct' here >>>   asm/pgtable.h <-|
                                                                 ... <-|
                                                                       |
                                                               |->...  |
                                                               |->asm/page.h
                                                               |->...
                                                       |->...  |
                                         |->...        |->mm_types_task.h
                             |->...      |->mm_types.h-|->...

  |->...    |->mm.h-|->...            But 'mm_struct' is defined here.
  |->vdso.h-|->...
  |->...
vgetcpu.c

I've also tried to include mm_types.h in advance, but in this case that
doesn't work because the _LINUX_MM_TYPES_H macro already exists.
The "forward declaration" was also taken into account, in the end it was
found to be unavailable as well.

In summary, I'm afraid that rewriting tlb_virt_to_page in asm/page.h as
a macro or inline function is not possible.  The root case of this is
that both 'struct mm_struct' and 'virt_to_kpte' belong to high-level
data structures, and if they are referenced in asm/page.h at the
low-level, dependency problems arise.

Anyway, we can at least define it as a normal function in asm/pgtable.h,
is that Okay with you?

It may be a bit wordy, so please bear with me.  In addition, all of the
above is my understanding, am I missing something?

Enze
