[PATCH 0/6] nouveau/hmm: add support for mapping large pages

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

 



hmm_range_fault() returns an array of page frame numbers and flags for
how the pages are mapped in the requested process' page tables. The PFN
can be used to get the struct page with hmm_pfn_to_page() and the page size
order can be determined with compound_order(page) but if the page is larger
than order 0 (PAGE_SIZE), there is no indication that the page is mapped
using a larger page size. To be fully general, hmm_range_fault() would need
to return the mapping size to handle cases like a 1GB compound page being
mapped with 2MB PMD entries. However, the most common case is the mapping
size the same as the underlying compound page size.
This series adds a new output flag to indicate this so that callers know it
is safe to use a large device page table mapping if one is available.
Nouveau and the HMM tests are updated to use the new flag.

Note that this series depends on a patch queued in Ben Skeggs' nouveau
tree ("nouveau/hmm: map pages after migration") and the patches queued
in Jason's HMM tree.
There is also a patch outstanding ("nouveau/hmm: fix nouveau_dmem_chunk
allocations") that is independent of the above and could be applied
before or after.
