From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: secretmem: optimize page_is_secretmem()
Kernel test robot reported -4.2% regression of
will-it-scale.per_thread_ops due to commit "mm: introduce memfd_secret
system call to create "secret" memory areas".
The perf profile of the test indicated that the regression is caused by
page_is_secretmem() called from gup_pte_range() (inlined by
gup_pgd_range):
27.76 +2.5 30.23 perf-profile.children.cycles-pp.gup_pgd_range
0.00 +3.2 3.19 ± 2% perf-profile.children.cycles-pp.page_mapping
0.00 +3.7 3.66 ± 2% perf-profile.children.cycles-pp.page_is_secretmem
Further analysis showed that the slow down happens because neither
page_is_secretmem() nor page_mapping() are not inline and moreover,
multiple page flags checks in page_mapping() involve calling
compound_head() several times for the same page.
Make page_is_secretmem() inline and replace page_mapping() with page flag
checks that do not imply page-to-head conversion.
