[RFC 05/14] s390/mm: Split huge pages when migrating

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

 



Right now we mark the huge page that is being written to as dirty
although only a single byte may have changed. This means we have to
migrate 1MB although only a very limited amount of memory in that
range might be dirty.

To speed up migration this patch splits up write protected huge pages
into normal pages. The protection for the normal pages is only removed
for the page that caused the fault.
