Hi Christoph,
All by itself, yes. But the very next patch (which needs a little
rework for other reasons, so not included here) needs to reuse some of
these functions within __unpin_devmap_managed_user_page():
page_is_devmap_managed()
free_devmap_managed_page()
That patch was posted as part of the v11 series [1], and it did this:
+#ifdef CONFIG_DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS
+static bool __unpin_devmap_managed_user_page(struct page *page)
+{
+ int count;
+
+ if (!page_is_devmap_managed(page))
+ return false;
+
+ count = page_ref_sub_return(page, GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS);
+
+ __update_proc_vmstat(page, NR_FOLL_PIN_RETURNED, 1);
+ /*
+ * devmap page refcounts are 1-based, rather than 0-based: if
+ * refcount is 1, then the page is free and the refcount is
+ * stable because nobody holds a reference on the page.
+ */
+ if (count == 1)
+ free_devmap_managed_page(page);
+ else if (!count)
+ __put_page(page);
+
+ return true;
+}
+#else
+static bool __unpin_devmap_managed_user_page(struct page *page)
+{
+ return false;
+}
+#endif /* CONFIG_DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS */
+
+/**
+ * unpin_user_page() - release a dma-pinned page
+ * @page: pointer to page to be released
+ *
+ * Pages that were pinned via pin_user_pages*() must be released via either
+ * unpin_user_page(), or one of the unpin_user_pages*() routines. This is so
+ * that such pages can be separately tracked and uniquely handled. In
+ * particular, interactions with RDMA and filesystems need special handling.
+ */
+void unpin_user_page(struct page *page)
+{
+ page = compound_head(page);
+
+ /*
+ * For devmap managed pages we need to catch refcount transition from
+ * GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS to 1, when refcount reach one it means the
+ * page is free and we need to inform the device driver through
+ * callback. See include/linux/memremap.h and HMM for details.
+ */
+ if (__unpin_devmap_managed_user_page(page))
+ return;
+
+ if (page_ref_sub_and_test(page, GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS))
+ __put_page(page);
+
+ __update_proc_vmstat(page, NR_FOLL_PIN_RETURNED, 1);
