Subject: mm/huge_memory: add vmf_insert_folio_pmd()
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2025 14:55:32 +1100
Currently DAX folio/page reference counts are managed differently to
normal pages. To allow these to be managed the same as normal pages
introduce vmf_insert_folio_pmd. This will map the entire PMD-sized folio
and take references as it would for a normally mapped page.
This is distinct from the current mechanism, vmf_insert_pfn_pmd, which
simply inserts a special devmap PMD entry into the page table without
holding a reference to the page for the mapping.
It is not currently useful to implement a more generic vmf_insert_folio()
which selects the correct behaviour based on folio_order(). This is
because PTE faults require only a subpage of the folio to be PTE mapped
rather than the entire folio. It would be possible to add this context
somewhere but callers already need to handle PTE faults and PMD faults
separately so a more generic function is not useful.
