We removed all "bool compound" and RMAP_COMPOUND parameters. Let's remove
the remaining "compound" terminology by making COMPOUND_MAPPED match the
"folio->_entire_mapcount" terminology, renaming it to ENTIRELY_MAPPED.
ENTIRELY_MAPPED is only used when the whole folio is mapped using a single
page table entry (e.g., a single PMD mapping a PMD-sized THP). For now,
we don't support mapping any THP bigger than that, so ENTIRELY_MAPPED only
applies to PMD-mapped PMD-sized THP only.

Let's convert it like we converted all the other rmap functions. Don't
introduce folio_try_share_anon_rmap_ptes() for now, as we don't have a
user that wants rmap batching in sight. Pretty easy to add later.
All users are easy to convert -- only ksm.c doesn't use folios yet but
that is left for future work -- so let's just do it in a single shot.
While at it, turn the BUG_ON into a WARN_ON_ONCE.
Note that page_try_share_anon_rmap() so far didn't care about pte/pmd
mappings (no compound parameter). We're changing that so we can perform
better sanity checks and make the code actually more readable/consistent.
For example, __folio_rmap_sanity_checks() will make sure that a PMD range
actually falls completely into the folio.

Let's mimic what we did with folio_add_file_rmap_*() and
folio_add_anon_rmap_*() so we can similarly replace page_remove_rmap()
next.
Make the compiler always special-case on the granularity by using
__always_inline.
We're adding folio_remove_rmap_ptes() handling right away, as we want to
use that soon for batching rmap operations when unmapping PTE-mapped large
folios.

Make the compiler always special-case on the granularity by using
__always_inline.
For the PageAnonExclusive sanity checks, when adding a PMD mapping, we're

only the head page.
Note that the new functions ignore the RMAP_COMPOUND flag, which we will
remove as soon as page_add_anon_rmap() is gone.

folio_add_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
Let's get rid of the compound parameter and instead define explicitly
which mappings we're adding. That is more future proof, easier to read
and harder to mess up.
Use an enum to express the granularity internally. Make the compiler
always special-case on the granularity by using __always_inline. Replace
the "compound" check by a switch-case that will be removed by the compiler
completely.
Add plenty of sanity checks with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. Replace the
folio_test_pmd_mappable() check by a config check in the caller and sanity
checks. Convert the single user of folio_add_file_rmap_range().
While at it, consistently use "int" instead of "unisgned int" in rmap code
when dealing with mapcounts and the number of pages.
This function design can later easily be extended to PUDs and to batch
PMDs. Note that for now we don't support anything bigger than PMD-sized
folios (as we cleanly separated hugetlb handling). Sanity checks will
catch if that ever changes.
Next up is removing page_remove_rmap() along with its "compound" parameter
and smilarly converting all other rmap functions.

hugetlb rmap handling differs quite a lot from "ordinary" rmap code. For
example, hugetlb currently only supports entire mappings, and treats any
mapping as mapped using a single "logical PTE". Let's move it out of the
way so we can overhaul our "ordinary" rmap. implementation/interface.
So let's introduce and use hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap() to make all hugetlb
handling use dedicated hugetlb_* rmap functions.
Add sanity checks that we end up with the right folios in the right
functions.
Note that try_to_unmap_one() does not need care. Easy to spot because
among all that nasty hugetlb special-casing in that function, we're not
using set_huge_pte_at() on the anon path -- well, and that code assumes
that we would want to swapout.

Patch series "mm/rmap: interface overhaul", v2.
This series overhauls the rmap interface, to get rid of the "bool
compound" / RMAP_COMPOUND parameter with the goal of making the interface
less error prone, more future proof, and more natural to extend to
"batching". Also, this converts the interface to always consume
folio+subpage, which speeds up operations on large folios.
Further, this series adds PTE-batching variants for 4 rmap functions,
whereby only folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() is used for batching in this
series when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP. folio_remove_rmap_ptes(),
folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_ptes() and folio_dup_file_rmap_ptes() will soon
come in handy[1,2].
This series performs a lot of folio conversion along the way. Most of the
added LOC in the diff are only due to documentation.
As we're moving to a pte/pmd interface where we clearly express the
mapping granularity we are dealing with, we first get the remainder of
hugetlb out of the way, as it is special and expected to remain special:
it treats everything as a "single logical PTE" and only currently allows
entire mappings.
Even if we'd ever support partial mappings, I strongly assume the
interface and implementation will still differ heavily: hopefull we can
avoid working on subpages/subpage mapcounts completely and only add a
"count" parameter for them to enable batching.
New (extended) hugetlb interface that operates on entire folio:
* hugetlb_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_add_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* hugetlb_try_dup_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_try_share_anon_rmap()
* hugetlb_add_file_rmap()
* hugetlb_remove_rmap()
New "ordinary" interface for small folios / THP::
* folio_add_new_anon_rmap() -> Already existed
* folio_add_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_dup_anon_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_try_share_anon_rmap_[pte|pmd]()
* folio_add_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_dup_file_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
* folio_remove_rmap_[pte|ptes|pmd]()
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() will always map at the largest granularity
possible (currently, a single PMD to cover a PMD-sized THP). Could be
extended if ever required.
In the future, we might want "_pud" variants and eventually "_pmds"
variants for batching.
I ran some simple microbenchmarks on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4210R:
measuring munmap(), fork(), cow, MADV_DONTNEED on each PTE ... and PTE
remapping PMD-mapped THPs on 1 GiB of memory.
For small folios, there is barely a change (< 1% improvement for me).
For PTE-mapped THP:
* PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP is more than 10% faster.
* fork() is more than 4% faster.
* MADV_DONTNEED is 2% faster
* COW when writing only a single byte on a COW-shared PTE is 1% faster
* munmap() barely changes (< 1%).

This patch (of 40):
Let's just call it "hugetlb_".
Yes, it's all already inconsistent and confusing because we have a lot of
"hugepage_" functions for legacy reasons. But "hugetlb" cannot possibly
be confused with transparent huge pages, and it matches "hugetlb.c" and
"folio_test_hugetlb()". So let's minimize confusion in rmap code.

Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CA+EESO4uO84SSnBhArH4HvLNhaUQ5nZKNKXqxRCyjniNVjp0Aw@mail.gmail.com/
Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

Patch series "userfaultfd move option", v6.
This patch series introduces UFFDIO_MOVE feature to userfaultfd, which has
long been implemented and maintained by Andrea in his local tree [1], but
was not upstreamed due to lack of use cases where this approach would be
better than allocating a new page and copying the contents. Previous
upstraming attempts could be found at [6] and [7].
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [2]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [3]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in
the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs.
UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap
compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses
by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in
[3].
Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without
touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap,
however it forces splitting the vma.
TODOs for follow-up improvements:
- cross-mm support. Known differences from single-mm and missing pieces:
- memcg recharging (might need to isolate pages in the process)
- mm counters
- cross-mm deposit table moves
- cross-mm test
- document the address space where src and dest reside in struct
uffdio_move
- TLB flush batching. Will require extensive changes to PTL locking in
move_pages_pte(). OTOH that might let us reuse parts of mremap code.
This patch (of 5):
For now, folio_move_anon_rmap() was only used to move a folio to a
different anon_vma after fork(), whereby the root anon_vma stayed
unchanged. For that, it was sufficient to hold the folio lock when
calling folio_move_anon_rmap().
However, we want to make use of folio_move_anon_rmap() to move folios
between VMAs that have a different root anon_vma. As folio_referenced()
performs an RMAP walk without holding the folio lock but only holding the
anon_vma in read mode, holding the folio lock is insufficient.
When moving to an anon_vma with a different root anon_vma, we'll have to
hold both, the folio lock and the anon_vma lock in write mode.
Consequently, whenever we succeeded in folio_lock_anon_vma_read() to
read-lock the anon_vma, we have to re-check if the mapping was changed in
the meantime. If that was the case, we have to retry.
Note that folio_move_anon_rmap() must only be called if the anon page is
exclusive to a process, and must not be called on KSM folios.
This is a preparation for UFFDIO_MOVE, which will hold the folio lock, the
anon_vma lock in write mode, and the mmap_lock in read mode.

In preparation for supporting anonymous multi-size THP, improve
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to allow a non-pmd-mappable, large folio to be
passed to it. In this case, all contained pages are accounted using the
order-0 folio (or base page) scheme.

Patch series "Multi-size THP for anonymous memory", v9.
A series to implement multi-size THP (mTHP) for anonymous memory
(previously called "small-sized THP" and "large anonymous folios").
The objective of this is to improve performance by allocating larger
chunks of memory during anonymous page faults:
1) Since SW (the kernel) is dealing with larger chunks of memory than base
pages, there are efficiency savings to be had; fewer page faults, batched PTE
and RMAP manipulation, reduced lru list, etc. In short, we reduce kernel
overhead. This should benefit all architectures.
2) Since we are now mapping physically contiguous chunks of memory, we can take
advantage of HW TLB compression techniques. A reduction in TLB pressure
speeds up kernel and user space. arm64 systems have 2 mechanisms to coalesce
TLB entries; "the contiguous bit" (architectural) and HPA (uarch).
This version incorporates David's feedback on the core patches (#3, #4)
and adds some RB and TB tags (see change log for details).
By default, the existing behaviour (and performance) is maintained. The
user must explicitly enable multi-size THP to see the performance benefit.
This is done via a new sysfs interface (as recommended by David
Hildenbrand - thanks to David for the suggestion)! This interface is
inspired by the existing per-hugepage-size sysfs interface used by
hugetlb, provides full backwards compatibility with the existing PMD-size
THP interface, and provides a base for future extensibility. See [9] for
detailed discussion of the interface.
This series is based on mm-unstable (715b67adf4c8).
Prerequisites
=============
I'm removing this section on the basis that I don't believe what we were
previously calling prerequisites are really prerequisites anymore. We
originally defined them when mTHP was a compile-time feature. There is
now a runtime control to opt-in to mTHP; when disabled, correctness and
performance are as before. When enabled, the code is still
correct/robust, but in the absence of the one remaining item (compaction)
there may be a performance impact in some corners. See the old list in
the v8 cover letter at [8]. And a longer explanation of my thinking here
[10].
SUMMARY: I don't think we should hold this series up, waiting for the
items on the prerequisites list. I believe this series should be ready
now so hopefully can be added to mm-unstable for some testing, then
fingers crossed for v6.8.
Testing
=======
The series includes patches for mm selftests to enlighten the cow and
khugepaged tests to explicitly test with multi-size THP, in the same way
that PMD-sized THP is tested. The new tests all pass, and no regressions
are observed in the mm selftest suite. I've also run my usual kernel
compilation and java script benchmarks without any issues.
Refer to my performance numbers posted with v6 [6]. (These are for
multi-size THP only - they do not include the arm64 contpte follow-on
series).
John Hubbard at Nvidia has indicated dramatic 10x performance improvements
for some workloads at [11]. (Observed using v6 of this series as well as
the arm64 contpte series).
Kefeng Wang at Huawei has also indicated he sees improvements at [12] although
there are some latency regressions also.
I've also checked that there is no regression in the write fault path when
mTHP is disabled using a microbenchmark. I ran it for a baseline kernel,
as well as v8 and v9. I repeated on Ampere Altra (bare metal) and Apple
M2 (VM):
| | m2 vm | altra |
|--------------|---------------------|---------------------|
| kernel | mean | std_rel | mean | std_rel |
|--------------|----------|----------|----------|----------|
| baseline | 0.000% | 0.341% | 0.000% | 3.581% |
| anonfolio-v8 | 0.005% | 0.272% | 5.068% | 1.128% |
| anonfolio-v9 | -0.013% | 0.442% | 0.107% | 1.788% |
There is no measurable difference on M2, but altra has a slow down in v8
which is fixed in v9 by moving the THP order check to be inline within
thp_vma_allowable_orders(), as suggested by David.
This patch (of 10):
In preparation for the introduction of anonymous multi-size THP, we would
like to be able to split them when they have unmapped subpages, in order
to free those unused pages under memory pressure. So remove the
artificial requirement that the large folio needed to be at least
PMD-sized.

Patch series "mm/rmap: convert page_move_anon_rmap() to
folio_move_anon_rmap()".
Convert page_move_anon_rmap() to folio_move_anon_rmap(), letting the
callers handle PageAnonExclusive. I'm including cleanup patch #3 because
it fits into the picture and can be done cleaner by the conversion.
This patch (of 3):
Let's move it into the caller: there is a difference between whether an
anon folio can only be mapped by one process (e.g., into one VMA), and
whether it is truly exclusive (e.g., no references -- including GUP --
from other processes).
Further, for large folios the page might not actually be pointing at the
head page of the folio, so it better be handled in the caller. This is a
preparation for converting page_move_anon_rmap() to consume a folio.

If large folio is in the range of VM_LOCKED VMA, it should be mlocked to
avoid being picked by page reclaim. Which may split the large folio and
then mlock each pages again.
Mlock this kind of large folio to prevent them being picked by page
reclaim.
For the large folio which cross the boundary of VM_LOCKED VMA or not fully
mapped to VM_LOCKED VMA, we'd better not to mlock it. So if the system is
under memory pressure, this kind of large folio will be split and the
pages ouf of VM_LOCKED VMA can be reclaimed.
Ideally, for large folio, we should mlock it when the large folio is fully
mapped to VMA and munlock it if any page are unmampped from VMA. But it's
not easy to detect whether the large folio is fully mapped to VMA in some
cases (like add/remove rmap). So we update mlock_vma_folio() and
munlock_vma_folio() to mlock/munlock the folio according to vma->vm_flags.
Let caller to decide whether they should call these two functions.
For add rmap, only mlock normal 4K folio and postpone large folio handling
to page reclaim phase. It is possible to reuse page table iterator to
detect whether folio is fully mapped or not during page reclaim phase.
For remove rmap, invoke munlock_vma_folio() to munlock folio unconditionly
because rmap makes folio not fully mapped to VMA.

Let's sanity-check PageAnonExclusive vs. mapcount in page_add_anon_rmap()
and hugepage_add_anon_rmap() after setting PageAnonExclusive simply by
re-reading the mapcounts.
We can stop initializing the "first" variable in page_add_anon_rmap() and
no longer need an atomic_inc_and_test() in hugepage_add_anon_rmap().
While at it, switch to VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO().

If swapin code would ever decide to not use order-0 pages and supply a
PTE-mapped large folio, we will have to change how we call
__folio_set_anon() -- eventually with exclusive=false and an adjusted
address. For now, let's add a VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO() with a comment about the

Let's handle it in the caller; no need for the "first" check based on the
mapcount.
We really only end up with !anon pages in page_add_anon_rmap() via
do_swap_page(), where we hold the folio lock. So races are not possible.
Add a VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO() to make sure that we really hold the folio lock.
In the future, we might want to let do_swap_page() use
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() on new pages instead: however, we might have to
pass then whether the folio is exclusive or not. So keep it in there for
now.
For hugetlb we never expect to have a non-anon page in
hugepage_add_anon_rmap(). Remove that code, along with some other checks
that are either not required or were checked in
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() already.

Patch series "Anon rmap cleanups".
Some cleanups around rmap for anon pages. I'm working on more cleanups
also around file rmap -- also to handle the "compound" parameter
internally only and to let hugetlb use page_add_file_rmap(), but these
changes make sense separately.
This patch (of 6):
That comment was added in commit 5dbe0af47f8a ("mm: fix kernel BUG at
mm/rmap.c:1017!") to document why we can see vma->vm_end getting adjusted
concurrently due to a VMA split.
However, the optimized locking code was changed again in bf181b9f9d8 ("mm
anon rmap: replace same_anon_vma linked list with an interval tree.").
... and later, the comment was changed in commit 0503ea8f5ba7 ("mm/mmap:
remove __vma_adjust()") to talk about "vma_merge" although the original
issue was with VMA splitting.
Let's just remove that comment. Nowadays, it's outdated, imprecise and
confusing.
