[PATCH v11 07/14] HMM: mm add helper to update page table when migrating memory v2.

From: JÃrÃme Glisse
Date: Wed Oct 21 2015 - 16:19:58 EST


For doing memory migration to remote memory we need to unmap range
of anonymous memory from CPU page table and replace page table entry
with special HMM entry.

This is a multi-stage process, first we save and replace page table
entry with special HMM entry, also flushing tlb in the process. If
we run into non allocated entry we either use the zero page or we
allocate new page. For swaped entry we try to swap them in.

Once we have set the page table entry to the special entry we check
the page backing each of the address to make sure that only page
table mappings are holding reference on the page, which means we
can safely migrate the page to device memory. Because the CPU page
table entry are special entry, no get_user_pages() can reference
the page anylonger. So we are safe from race on that front. Note
that the page can still be referenced by get_user_pages() from
other process but in that case the page is write protected and
as we do not drop the mapcount nor the page count we know that
all user of get_user_pages() are only doing read only access (on
write access they would allocate a new page).

Once we have identified all the page that are safe to migrate the
first function return and let HMM schedule the migration with the
device driver.

Finaly there is a cleanup function that will drop the mapcount and
reference count on all page that have been successfully migrated,
or restore the page table entry otherwise.

Changed since v1:
- Fix pmd/pte allocation when migrating.
- Fix reverse logic on mm_forbids_zeropage()
- Add comment on why we add to lru list new page.
