I'm using it in core-mm to help calculate the number of "contiguously mapped" pages within a folio (note that's not the same as arm64's notion of contpte-mapped. I just want to know that there are N physically contiguous pages mapped virtually contiguously with the same permissions). And I'm using pte_pgprot() to extract the permissions for each pte to compare. It's important that we compare the permissions because just because the pages belongs to the same folio doesn't imply they are mapped with the same permissions; think mprotect()ing a sub-range. I don't have a great idea for how to fix this - does anyone have any thoughts? Some ideas: - Implement folio_nr_pages_cont_mapped() conditionally on CONFIG_HAVE_IOREMAP_PROT being set, otherwise it just returns 1 and for those arches we always get the old, non-batching behavior. There is some precident; mm/memory.c is already using pte_pgprot() behind this ifdef. - Implement a generic helper the same way arm64 does it. This will return all the pte bits that are not part of the PFN. But I'm not sure this is definitely a valid thing to do for all architectures: static inline pgprot_t pte_pgprot(pte_t pte) { unsigned long pfn = pte_pfn(pte); return __pgprot(pte_val(pfn_pte(pfn, __pgprot(0))) ^ pte_val(pte)); } - Explicitly implement pte_pgprot() for all arches that don't currently have it (sigh).
