The MMIO region of a device maybe huge (GB level), try to use
block mapping in stage2 to speedup both map and unmap.
Compared to normal memory mapping, we should consider two more
points when try block mapping for MMIO region:
1. For normal memory mapping, the PA(host physical address) and
HVA have same alignment within PUD_SIZE or PMD_SIZE when we use
the HVA to request hugepage, so we don't need to consider PA
alignment when verifing block mapping. But for device memory
mapping, the PA and HVA may have different alignment.
2. For normal memory mapping, we are sure hugepage size properly
fit into vma, so we don't check whether the mapping size exceeds
the boundary of vma. But for device memory mapping, we should pay
attention to this.
This adds get_vma_page_shift() to get page shift for both normal
memory and device MMIO region, and check these two points when
selecting block mapping size for MMIO region.

I don't understand how VM_PFNMAP is set for hugetlbfs related vma.
I think they are exclusive, meaning the flag is never set for
hugetlbfs vma. If it's true, VM_PFNMAP needn't be checked on hugetlbfs
vma and the VM_BUG_ON() becomes unnecessary.
Yes, but we're not sure all drivers follow this rule. Add a BUG_ON() is
a way to catch issue.
I think I didn't make things clear. What I meant is VM_PFNMAP can't
be set for hugetlbfs VMAs. So the checks here can be simplified as
below if you agree:
if (is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma))
return huge_page_shift(hstate_vma(vma));
if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_PFNMAP))
return PAGE_SHIFT;
VM_BUG_ON(is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma)); /* Can be dropped */
+ pa = (vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT) + (hva - vma->vm_start);
+
+#ifndef __PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED
+ if ((hva & (PUD_SIZE - 1)) == (pa & (PUD_SIZE - 1)) &&
+ ALIGN_DOWN(hva, PUD_SIZE) >= vma->vm_start &&
+ ALIGN(hva, PUD_SIZE) <= vma->vm_end)
+ return PUD_SHIFT;
+#endif
+
+ if ((hva & (PMD_SIZE - 1)) == (pa & (PMD_SIZE - 1)) &&
+ ALIGN_DOWN(hva, PMD_SIZE) >= vma->vm_start &&
+ ALIGN(hva, PMD_SIZE) <= vma->vm_end)
+ return PMD_SHIFT;
+
+ return PAGE_SHIFT;
+}

There is "switch(...)" fallback mechanism in user_mem_abort(). PUD_SIZE/PMD_SIZE
can be downgraded accordingly if the addresses fails in the alignment check
by fault_supports_stage2_huge_mapping(). I think it would make user_mem_abort()
simplified if the logic can be moved to get_vma_page_shift().
Another question if we need the check from fault_supports_stage2_huge_mapping()
if VM_PFNMAP area is going to be covered by block mapping. If so, the "switch(...)"
fallback mechanism needs to be part of get_vma_page_shift().
Yes, Good suggestion. My idea is that we can keep this series simpler and do further
optimization in another patch series. Do you mind to send a patch?
Yeah, It's fine to keep this series as of being. There are 3 checks applied
here for MMIO region: hva/hpa/ipa and they're distributed in two functions,
making the code a bit hard to follow. I can post patch to simplify it after
your series gets merged :)
Thanks,
Gavin
