[PATCH 10/19] thp: PMD splitting without splitting compound page

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Wed Nov 05 2014 - 10:05:57 EST

Current split_huge_page() combines two operations: splitting PMDs into
tables of PTEs and splitting underlying compound page. This patch
changes split_huge_pmd() implementation to split the given PMD without
splitting other PMDs this page mapped with or underlying compound page.

In order to do this we have to get rid of tail page refcounting, which
uses _mapcount of tail pages. Tail page refcounting is needed to be able
to split THP page at any point: we always know which of tail pages is
pinned (i.e. by get_user_pages()) and can distribute page count
correctly.

We can avoid this by allowing split_huge_page() to fail if the compound
page is pinned. This patch removes all infrastructure for tail page
refcounting and make split_huge_page() to always return -EBUSY. All
split_huge_page() users already know how to handle its fail. Proper
implementation will be added later.

Without tail page refcounting, implementation of split_huge_pmd() is
pretty straight-forward.
