[RFC PATCH 09/12] khugepaged: Introduce vma_collapse_anon_folio()

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

 



In contrast to PMD-collapse, we do not need to operate on two levels of pagetable
simultaneously. Therefore, downgrade the mmap lock from write to read mode. Still
take the anon_vma lock in exclusive mode so as to not waste time in the rmap path,
which is anyways going to fail since the PTEs are going to be changed. Under the PTL,
copy page contents, clear the PTEs, remove folio pins, and (try to) unmap the
old folios. Set the PTEs to the new folio using the set_ptes() API.

Note: I have been trying hard to get rid of the locks in here: we still are
taking the PTL around the page copying; dropping the PTL and taking it after
the copying should lead to a deadlock, for example:
khugepaged						madvise(MADV_COLD)
folio_lock()						lock(ptl)
lock(ptl)						folio_lock()

We can create a locked folio list, altogether drop both the locks, take the PTL,
do everything which __collapse_huge_page_isolate() does *except* the isolation and
again try locking folios, but then it will reduce efficiency of khugepaged
and almost looks like a forced solution :)
Please note the following discussion if anyone is interested:
