Subject: [PATCH 07/19] mm, thp: adjust conditions when we can reuse the page on WP fault
Date: Wed,  5 Nov 2014 16:49:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1415198994-15252-8-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1415198994-15252-1-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>

With new refcounting we will be able map the same compound page with
PTEs and PMDs. It requires adjustment to conditions when we can reuse
the page on write-protection fault.

For PTE fault we can't reuse the page if it's part of huge page.

For PMD we can only reuse the page if nobody else maps the huge page or
it's part. We can do it by checking page_mapcount() on each sub-page,
but it's expensive.
The cheaper way is to check page_count() to be equal 1: every mapcount
takes page reference reference, so this way we can guarantee, that the
PMD is the only mapping.
This can give false negative if somebody pinned the page, but that's
fine.
