From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Here's the second version of the patchset. The intend of the work is get code ready to enable transparent huge page cache for the most simple fs -- ramfs. We have read()/write()/mmap() functionality now. Still plenty work ahead.
It's a great work. But could you give more explanation how you design to implement thp support page cache in order that more developers are easy and happy to review your big patchset?
Any feedback is welcome. Changes since v1: - mmap(); - fix add_to_page_cache_locked() and delete_from_page_cache(); - introduce mapping_can_have_hugepages(); - call split_huge_page() only for head page in filemap_fault(); - wait_split_huge_page(): serialize over i_mmap_mutex too; - lru_add_page_tail: avoid PageUnevictable on active/inactive lru lists; - fix off-by-one in zero_huge_user_segment(); - THP_WRITE_ALLOC/THP_WRITE_FAILED counters; TODO: - memcg accounting has not yet evaluated; - collapse; - migration (?); - stats, knobs, etc.; - tmpfs/shmem enabling; Kirill A.
