  • As with rmap, with new refcounting we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() to
    check if we need to charge size of huge page form the cgroup. We need
    to get information from caller to know whether it was mapped with PMD or
    PTE.

    We do uncharge when last reference on the page gone. At that point if
    we see PageTransHuge() it means we need to unchange whole huge page.

    The tricky part is partial unmap -- when we try to unmap part of huge
    page. We don't do a special handing of this situation, meaning we don't
    uncharge the part of huge page unless last user is gone or
    split_huge_page() is triggered. In case of cgroup memory pressure
    happens the partial unmapped page will be split through shrinker. This
    should be good enough.

  • We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound
    page. It means we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() check to decide if
    map/unmap small page or THP.

    The patch adds new argument to rmap functions to indicate whether we
    want to operate on whole compound page or only the small page.

  • If the rwsem starves writers it wasn't strictly a bug but lockdep
    doesn't like it and this avoids depending on lowlevel implementation
    details of the lock.

  • This implements mcopy_atomic and mfill_zeropage that are the lowlevel
    VM methods that are invoked respectively by the UFFDIO_COPY and
    UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE userfaultfd commands.
