From 7ed2c31dabdeb3ee6abe8ff5aac7287821a50cba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anshuman Khandual Date: Tue, 5 Mar 2019 15:43:44 -0800 Subject: mm/hugetlb: distinguish between migratability and movability Patch series "arm64/mm: Enable HugeTLB migration", v4. This patch series enables HugeTLB migration support for all supported huge page sizes at all levels including contiguous bit implementation. Following HugeTLB migration support matrix has been enabled with this patch series. All permutations have been tested except for the 16GB. CONT PTE PMD CONT PMD PUD -------- --- -------- --- 4K: 64K 2M 32M 1G 16K: 2M 32M 1G 64K: 2M 512M 16G First the series adds migration support for PUD based huge pages. It then adds a platform specific hook to query an architecture if a given huge page size is supported for migration while also providing a default fallback option preserving the existing semantics which just checks for (PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT macros. The last two patches enables HugeTLB migration on arm64 and subscribe to this new platform specific hook by defining an override. The second patch differentiates between movability and migratability aspects of huge pages and implements hugepage_movable_supported() which can then be used during allocation to decide whether to place the huge page in movable zone or not. This patch (of 5): During huge page allocation it's migratability is checked to determine if it should be placed under movable zones with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE. But the movability aspect of the huge page could depend on other factors than just migratability. Movability in itself is a distinct property which should not be tied with migratability alone. This differentiates these two and implements an enhanced movability check which also considers huge page size to determine if it is feasible to be placed under a movable zone. At present it just checks for gigantic pages but going forward it can incorporate other enhanced checks.
