We're going to use migration entries instead of compound_lock() to
stabilize page refcounts. Setup and remove migration entries require
page to be locked.Some of split_huge_page() callers already have the page locked. Let's
require everybody to lock the page before calling split_huge_page().Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

We are going to use migration PTE entries to stabilize page counts. If
the page is mapped with PMDs we need to split the PMD and setup
migration entries. It's reasonable to combine these operations to avoid
double-scanning over the page table.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

Original split_huge_page() combined two operations: splitting PMDs into
tables of PTEs and splitting underlying compound page. This patch
implements split_huge_pmd() which split given PMD without splitting
other PMDs this page mapped with or underlying compound page.Without tail page refcounting, implementation of split_huge_pmd() is
pretty straight-forward.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
page.This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
page_mapped().Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound. It
means we need to track mapcount on per small page basis.Straight-forward approach is to use ->_mapcount in all subpages to track
how many time this subpage is mapped with PMDs or PTEs combined. But
this is rather expensive: mapping or unmapping of a THP page with PMD
would require HPAGE_PMD_NR atomic operations instead of single we have
now.The idea is to store separately how many times the page was mapped as
whole -- compound_mapcount. This frees up ->_mapcount in subpages to
track PTE mapcount.We use the same approach as with compound page destructor and compound
order to store compound_mapcount: use space in first tail page,
->mapping this time.Any time we map/unmap whole compound page (THP or hugetlb) -- we
increment/decrement compound_mapcount. When we map part of compound
page with PTE we operate on ->_mapcount of the subpage.page_mapcount() counts both: PTE and PMD mappings of the page.
Basically, we have mapcount for a subpage spread over two counters. It
makes tricky to detect when last mapcount for a page goes away.We introduced PageDoubleMap() for this. When we split THP PMD for the
first time and there's other PMD mapping left we offset up ->_mapcount
in all subpages by one and set PG_double_map on the compound page.
These additional references go away with last compound_mapcount.This approach provides a way to detect when last mapcount goes away on
per small page basis without introducing new overhead for most common
cases.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix typo in comment]

Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support.
It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is
pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to
->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to
be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during
the split.We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the
compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in
tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned.The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for
now.Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much
simpler.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

With new refcounting THP can belong to several VMAs. This makes tricky
to track THP pages, when they partially mlocked. It can lead to leaking
mlocked pages to non-VM_LOCKED vmas and other problems.With this patch we will split all pages on mlock and avoid
fault-in/collapse new THP in VM_LOCKED vmas.I've tried alternative approach: do not mark THP pages mlocked and keep
them on normal LRUs. This way vmscan could try to split huge pages on
memory pressure and free up subpages which doesn't belong to VM_LOCKED
vmas. But this is user-visible change: we screw up Mlocked accouting
reported in meminfo, so I had to leave this approach aside.We can bring something better later, but this should be good enough for
now.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

Generic fast GUP rely on page_cache_get_speculative() to obtain
reference on page. page_cache_get_speculative() always fails on tail
pages, because ->_count on tail pages is always zero.Let's handle tail pages in gup_pte_range().
New split_huge_page() will rely on migration entries to freeze page's

With new refcounting we will be able map the same compound page with
PTEs and PMDs. It requires adjustment to conditions when we can reuse
the page on write-protection fault.For PTE fault we can't reuse the page if it's part of huge page.
For PMD we can only reuse the page if nobody else maps the huge page or
it's part. We can do it by checking page_mapcount() on each sub-page,
but it's expensive.The cheaper way is to check page_count() to be equal 1: every mapcount
takes page reference, so this way we can guarantee, that the PMD is the
only mapping.This approach can give false negative if somebody pinned the page, but
that doesn't affect correctness.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

The goal of this patchset is to make refcounting on THP pages cheaper
with simpler semantics and allow the same THP compound page to be mapped
with PMD and PTEs. This is required to get reasonable THP-pagecache
implementation.With the new refcounting design it's much easier to protect against
split_huge_page(): simple reference on a page will make you the deal.
It makes gup_fast() implementation simpler and doesn't require
special-case in futex code to handle tail THP pages.It should improve THP utilization over the system since splitting THP in
one process doesn't necessary lead to splitting the page in all other
processes have the page mapped.The patchset drastically lower complexity of get_page()/put_page()
codepaths. I encourage people look on this code before-and-after to
justify time budget on reviewing this patchset.This patch (of 37):
With new refcounting all subpages of the compound page are not necessary
have the same mapcount. We need to take into account mapcount of every
sub-page.Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov
