Subject: shared page table for hugetlb page - v4
From: "Chen, Kenneth W" <kenneth.w.chen@xxxxxxxxx>

Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken. 
This set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only.

The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number
of independent processes sharing large shared memory segments.  In the
normal page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is
quite significant.  For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the
primary objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead
significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb
is to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss.

With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the
cache consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return,
application gets much higher cache hit ratio.  One other effect is that
cache hit ratio with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be
higher and this helps to reduce tlb miss latency.  These two effects
contribute to higher application performance.
