[mm-unstable v4 PATCH 0/7] Cleanup transhuge_xxx helpers

[mm-unstable v4 PATCH 0/7] Cleanup transhuge_xxx helpers

[Yang Shi]

v4: * Consolidated the transhuge_vma_size_ok() helper proposed in the
      earlier versions into transhuge_vma_suitable(), per Zach.
    * Fixed the regression introduced by patch 3/7, per Zach and Miaohe.
    * Reworded the comment for transhuge_vma_suitable(), per Zach.
    * Removed khugepaged_enter() per Miaohe.
    * More comments for hugepage_vma_check(), per Zach.
    * Squashed patch 4/7 (mm: khugepaged: use transhuge_vma_suitable replace open-code)
      in the earlier version into patch 2/7 of this version.
    * Minor correction to the doc about THPeligible (patch 7/7), so the
      total number of patches is kept 7. 
v3: * Fixed the comment from Willy
v2: * Rebased to the latest mm-unstable
    * Fixed potential regression for smaps's THPeligible

This series is the follow-up of the discussion about cleaning up transhuge_xxx
helpers at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/627a71f8-e879-69a5-ceb3-fc8d29d2f7f1@suse.cz/.

THP has a bunch of helpers that do VMA sanity check for different paths, they
do the similar checks for the most callsites and have a lot duplicate codes.
And it is confusing what helpers should be used at what conditions.

This series reorganized and cleaned up the code so that we could consolidate
all the checks into hugepage_vma_check().

The transhuge_vma_enabled(), transparent_hugepage_active() and
__transparent_hugepage_enabled() are killed by this series.

[v4 PATCH 1/7] mm: khugepaged: check THP flag in hugepage_vma_check()

[Yang Shi]

Currently the THP flag check in hugepage_vma_check() will fallthrough if
the flag is NEVER and VM_HUGEPAGE is set.  This is not a problem for now
since all the callers have the flag checked before or can't be invoked if
the flag is NEVER.

However, the following patch will call hugepage_vma_check() in more
places, for example, page fault, so this flag must be checked in
hugepge_vma_check().

[v4 PATCH 2/7] mm: thp: consolidate vma size check to transhuge_vma_suitable

[Yang Shi]

There are couple of places that check whether the vma size is ok for
THP or whether address fits, they are open coded and duplicate, use
transhuge_vma_suitable() to do the job by passing in (vma->end -
HPAGE_PMD_SIZE).

Move vma size check into hugepage_vma_check().  This will make
khugepaged_enter() is as same as khugepaged_enter_vma().  There is just
one caller for khugepaged_enter(), replace it to khugepaged_enter_vma()
and remove khugepaged_enter().

[v4 PATCH 3/7] mm: khugepaged: better comments for anon vma check in hugepage_vma_revalidate

[Yang Shi]

The hugepage_vma_revalidate() needs to check if the vma is still
anonymous vma or not since the address may be unmapped then remapped to
file before khugepaged reaquired the mmap_lock.

The old comment is not quite helpful, elaborate this with better
comment.

[v4 PATCH 4/7] mm: thp: kill transparent_hugepage_active()

[Yang Shi]

The transparent_hugepage_active() was introduced to show THP eligibility
bit in smaps in proc, smaps is the only user.  But it actually does the
similar check as hugepage_vma_check() which is used by khugepaged.  We
definitely don't have to maintain two similar checks, so kill
transparent_hugepage_active().

This patch also fixed the wrong behavior for VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED vmas.

Also move hugepage_vma_check() to huge_memory.c and huge_mm.h since it
is not only for khugepaged anymore.

[v4 PATCH 5/7] mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()

[Yang Shi]

The page fault path checks THP eligibility with
__transhuge_page_enabled() which does the similar thing as
hugepage_vma_check(), so use hugepage_vma_check() instead.

However page fault allows DAX and !anon_vma cases, so added a new flag,
in_pf, to hugepage_vma_check() to make page fault work correctly.

The in_pf flag is also used to skip shmem and file THP for page fault
since shmem handles THP in its own shmem_fault() and file THP allocation
on fault is not supported yet.

Also remove hugepage_vma_enabled() since hugepage_vma_check() is the
only caller now, it is not necessary to have a helper function.

[v4 PATCH 6/7] mm: khugepaged: reorg some khugepaged helpers

[Yang Shi]

The khugepaged_{enabled|always|req_madv} are not khugepaged only
anymore, move them to huge_mm.h and rename to hugepage_flags_xxx, and
remove khugepaged_req_madv due to no users.

Also move khugepaged_defrag to khugepaged.c since its only caller is in
that file, it doesn't have to be in a header file.

[v4 PATCH 7/7] doc: proc: fix the description to THPeligible

[Yang Shi]

The THPeligible bit shows 1 if and only if the VMA is eligible for
allocating THP and the THP is also PMD mappable.  Some misaligned file
VMAs may be eligible for allocating THP but the THP can't be mapped by
PMD.  Make this more explictly to avoid ambiguity.
