OK, here's an actual implementation: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230207194937.122543-3-willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ It survives a run of xfstests. If your architecture doesn't store its PFNs at PAGE_SHIFT, you're going to want to implement your own set_ptes(), or you'll see entirely the wrong pages mapped into userspace. You may also wish to implement set_ptes() if it can be done more efficiently than __pte(pteval(pte) + PAGE_SIZE). Architectures that implement things like flush_icache_page() and update_mmu_cache() may want to propose batched versions of those. That's alpha, csky, m68k, mips, nios2, parisc, sh, arm, loongarch, openrisc, powerpc, riscv, sparc and xtensa. Maintainers BCC'd, mailing lists CC'd. I'm happy to collect implementations and submit them as part of a v6.
