[PATCH v2 09/46] mm: add MADV_SPLIT to enable HugeTLB HGM
From: James Houghton
Date: Fri Feb 17 2023 - 19:29:25 EST
Issuing ioctl(MADV_SPLIT) on a HugeTLB address range will enable
HugeTLB HGM. MADV_SPLIT was chosen for the name so that this API can be
applied to non-HugeTLB memory in the future, if such an application is
to arise.
MADV_SPLIT provides several API changes for some syscalls on HugeTLB
address ranges:
1. UFFDIO_CONTINUE is allowed for MAP_SHARED VMAs at PAGE_SIZE
alignment.
2. read()ing a page fault event from a userfaultfd will yield a
PAGE_SIZE-rounded address, instead of a huge-page-size-rounded
address (unless UFFD_FEATURE_EXACT_ADDRESS is used).
There is no way to disable the API changes that come with issuing
MADV_SPLIT. MADV_COLLAPSE can be used to collapse high-granularity page
table mappings that come from the extended functionality that comes with
using MADV_SPLIT.
For post-copy live migration, the expected use-case is:
1. mmap(MAP_SHARED, some_fd) primary mapping
2. mmap(MAP_SHARED, some_fd) alias mapping
3. MADV_SPLIT the primary mapping
4. UFFDIO_REGISTER/etc. the primary mapping
5. Copy memory contents into alias mapping and UFFDIO_CONTINUE the
corresponding PAGE_SIZE sections in the primary mapping.
More API changes may be added in the future.
