[PATCH mm-unstable 00/10] convert core hugetlb functions to folios
From: Sidhartha Kumar
Date: Tue Nov 15 2022 - 16:22:56 EST
============== OVERVIEW ===========================
Now that many hugetlb helper functions that deal with hugetlb specific
flags[1] and hugetlb cgroups[2] are converted to folios, higher level
allocation, prep, and freeing functions within hugetlb can also be
converted to operate in folios.
Patch 1 of this series implements the wrapper functions around setting
the compound destructor and compound order for a folio. Besides the user
added in patch 1, patch 2 and patch 9 also use these helper functions.
Patches 2-10 convert the higher level hugetlb functions to folios.
============== TESTING ===========================
LTP:
Ran 10 back to back rounds of the LTP hugetlb test suite.
Gigantic Huge Pages:
Test allocation and freeing via hugeadm commands:
hugeadm --pool-pages-min 1GB:10
hugeadm --pool-pages-min 1GB:0
Demote:
Demote 1 1GB hugepages to 512 2MB hugepages
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote
cat /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
# 512
cat /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
# 0
