Let's remove yet another follow_page() user. Note that we have to do the

Hi David,

Our (arm64) CI is showing a regression in split_huge_page_test from mm selftests from next-20240805 onwards. Navigating around a couple of other lurking bugs, I was able to bisect to this change (which smells about right).

Newly failing test:

# # ------------------------------
# # running ./split_huge_page_test
# # ------------------------------
# # TAP version 13
# # 1..12
# # Bail out! Still AnonHugePages not split
# # # Planned tests != run tests (12 != 0)
# # # Totals: pass:0 fail:0 xfail:0 xpass:0 skip:0 error:0
# # [FAIL]
# not ok 52 split_huge_page_test # exit=1

It's trying to split some pmd-mapped THPs then checking and finding that they are not split. The split is requested via /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages, which I believe ends up in this function you are modifying here. Although I'll admit that looking at the change, there is nothing obviously wrong! Any ideas?

Nothing jumps at me as well. Let me fire up the debugger :)

Ah, very likely the can_split_folio() check expects a raised refcount
already.

Indeed, the following does the trick! Thanks Ryan, I could have sworn
I ran that selftest as well.

TAP version 13
1..12
ok 1 Split huge pages successful
ok 2 Split PTE-mapped huge pages successful
# Please enable pr_debug in split_huge_pages_in_file() for more info.
# Please check dmesg for more information
ok 3 File-backed THP split test done

...


@Andrew, can you squash the following?

Subject: [PATCH] fixup: mm/huge_memory: convert split_huge_pages_pid() from
 follow_page() to folio_walk

We have to teach can_split_folio() that we are not holding an additional
reference.
