[PATCH v6 2/7] dax: support dirty DAX entries in radix tree

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

 



Add support for tracking dirty DAX entries in the struct address_space
radix tree.  This tree is already used for dirty page writeback, and it
already supports the use of exceptional (non struct page*) entries.

In order to properly track dirty DAX pages we will insert new exceptional
entries into the radix tree that represent dirty DAX PTE or PMD pages.
These exceptional entries will also contain the writeback sectors for the
PTE or PMD faults that we can use at fsync/msync time.

There are currently two types of exceptional entries (shmem and shadow)
that can be placed into the radix tree, and this adds a third.  We rely on
the fact that only one type of exceptional entry can be found in a given
radix tree based on its usage.  This happens for free with DAX vs shmem but
we explicitly prevent shadow entries from being added to radix trees for
DAX mappings.

The only shadow entries that would be generated for DAX radix trees would
be to track zero page mappings that were created for holes.  These pages
would receive minimal benefit from having shadow entries, and the choice
to have only one type of exceptional entry in a given radix tree makes the
logic simpler both in clear_exceptional_entry() and in the rest of DAX.
