ODP supports a single 'full VA' call at process startup, just like these cases. > That is when mmu_interval_notifier_insert() / > mmu_interval_notifier_remove() can be called and the driver doesn't > have to worry about the interval changing sizes or being removed > while I/O is happening. =20 No, for the 'ODP full process VA' (aka implicit ODP) mode it dynamically maintains a list of intervals. ODP chooses the align the dynamic intervals to it's HW page table levels, and not to SW VMAs. This is much simpler to manage and faster to fault, at the cost of capturing more VA for invalidations which have to be probed against the HW shadow PTEs. > It isn't that expensive, there is an extra driver lock/unlock as > part of the lookup and possibly a find_vma() and kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) > for new intervals.

Well, compared to ODP which does a single xa lookup with no lock to find its interval, this looks very expensive and not parallel. I think if there is merit in having ranges cover the vmas and track changes then there is probably merit in having the core code provide much of that logic, not the driver. But it would be interesting to see some kind of analysis on the two methods to decide if the complexity is worthwhile. Jason
