[PATCH v2 07/12] s390: add pte_free_defer() for pgtables sharing page

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add s390-specific pte_free_defer(), to call pte_free() via call_rcu().
pte_free_defer() will be called inside khugepaged's retract_page_tables()
loop, where allocating extra memory cannot be relied upon.  This precedes
the generic version to avoid build breakage from incompatible pgtable_t.

This version is more complicated than others: because s390 fits two 2K
page tables into one 4K page (so page->rcu_head must be shared between
both halves), and already uses page->lru (which page->rcu_head overlays)
to list any free halves; with clever management by page->_refcount bits.

Build upon the existing management, adjusted to follow a new rule: that
a page is not linked to mm_context_t::pgtable_list while either half is
pending free, by either tlb_remove_table() or pte_free_defer(); but is
afterwards either relinked to the list (if other half is allocated), or
freed (if other half is free): by __tlb_remove_table() in both cases.

This rule ensures that page->lru is no longer in use while page->rcu_head
may be needed for use by pte_free_defer().  And a fortuitous byproduct of
following this rule is that page_table_free() no longer needs its curious
two-step manipulation of _refcount - read commit c2c224932fd0 ("s390/mm:
fix 2KB pgtable release race") for what to think of there.  But it does
not solve the problem that two halves may need rcu_head at the same time.

For that, add HHead bits between s390's AAllocated and PPending bits in
the upper byte of page->_refcount: then the second pte_free_defer() can
see that rcu_head is already in use, and the RCU callee pte_free_half()
can see that it needs to make a further call_rcu() for that other half.

page_table_alloc() set the page->pt_mm field, so __tlb_remove_table()
knows where to link the freed half while its other half is allocated.
But linking to the list needs mm->context.lock: and although AA bit set
guarantees that pt_mm must still be valid, it does not guarantee that mm
is still valid an instant later: so acquiring mm->context.lock would not
be safe.  For now, use a static global mm_pgtable_list_lock instead:
then a soon-to-follow commit will split it per-mm as before (probably by
using a SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU structure for the list head and its lock);
and update the commentary on the pgtable_list.
