[PATCH 1/4] hugetlb, rmap: always use anon_vma root pointer

[Naoya Horiguchi]

This patch applies Andrea's fix given by the following patch into hugepage
rmapping code:

  commit 288468c334e98aacbb7e2fb8bde6bc1adcd55e05
  Author: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com>
  Date:   Mon Aug 9 17:19:09 2010 -0700

Btw, why isn't the code in __page_set_anon_rmap() also doing this
cleaner version (ie a single "if (PageAnon(page)) return;" up front)?

The comments in that function are also some alien language translated
to english by some broken automatic translation service. Could
somebody clean up that function and come up with a comment that
actually parses as English and makes sense?

Perhaps I misunderstand the question, but __page_set_anon_rmap
should handle Anon pages, shouldn't it?

I'm talking about this:

    if (!exclusive) {
        if (PageAnon(page))
            return;
        anon_vma = anon_vma->root;
    } else {
        .. big bad comment ...
        if (PageAnon(page))
            return;
    }

where both sides of the if-statement start off doing the same thing.

It would be much cleaner to just do

    ... big _comprehensible_ comment ...
    if (PageAnon(page))
        return;

    if (!exclusive)
        anon_vma = anon_vma->root;

which avoids that silly else that just does something that we always do.

The reason I reacted is that Naoya-san's patch did that cleaner
version for the hugetlb case. So when I compared it to the non-hugetlb
case I just went "Ewww..."

__page_set_anon_rmap sets the page->mapping to be
a pointer to the anon_vma & PAGE_MAPPING_ANON.

PageAnon tests for page->mapping & PAGE_MAPPING_ANON,
ie. whether page->mapping is already pointing to an
anon_vma.

If it is, __page_set_anon_rmap should leave the page
mapping pointer alone.

[PATCH 2/4] hugetlb, rmap: use hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() in hugetlb_cow()

[Naoya Horiguchi]

Obviously, setting anon_vma for COWed hugepage should be done
by hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() to scan vmas faster.
This patch fixes it.

[PATCH 3/4] hugetlb, rmap: fix confusing page locking in hugetlb_cow()

[Naoya Horiguchi]

if(!trylock_page) block in avoidcopy path of hugetlb_cow() looks confusing
and is buggy.  Originally this trylock_page() is intended to make sure
that old_page is locked even when old_page != pagecache_page, because then
only pagecache_page is locked.
This patch fixes it by moving page locking into hugetlb_fault().

Why isn't this a potential deadlock? You have two pages, and lock them 
both. Is there some ordering guarantee that says that 'pagecache_page' and 
'page' will always be in a certain relationship so that you cannot get 
A->B and B->A lock ordering?

Please document that ordering rule if so.

Locking order is always pagecache -> page, so we are free from deadlock.

Yes. I comment it.

Please replace this patch by the following one.
