Subject: [PATCH RFC 07/30] mm/swap: Introduce the idea of special swap ptes
Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2021 12:08:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210115170907.24498-8-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210115170907.24498-1-peterx@redhat.com>

We used to have special swap entries, like migration entries, hw-poison
entries, device private entries, etc.

Those "special swap entries" reside in the range that they need to be at least
swap entries first, and their types are decided by swp_type(entry).

This patch introduces another idea called "special swap ptes".

It's very easy to get confused against "special swap entries", but a speical
swap pte should never contain a swap entry at all.  It means, it's illegal to
call pte_to_swp_entry() upon a special swap pte.

Make the uffd-wp special pte to be the first special swap pte.

Before this patch, is_swap_pte()==true means one of the below:

   (a.1) The pte has a normal swap entry (non_swap_entry()==false).  For
         example, when an anonymous page got swapped out.

   (a.2) The pte has a special swap entry (non_swap_entry()==true).  For
         example, a migration entry, a hw-poison entry, etc.

After this patch, is_swap_pte()==true means one of the below, where case (b) is
added:

 (a) The pte contains a swap entry.

   (a.1) The pte has a normal swap entry (non_swap_entry()==false).  For
         example, when an anonymous page got swapped out.

   (a.2) The pte has a special swap entry (non_swap_entry()==true).  For
         example, a migration entry, a hw-poison entry, etc.

 (b) The pte does not contain a swap entry at all (so it cannot be passed
     into pte_to_swp_entry()).  For example, uffd-wp special swap pte.

Teach the whole mm core about this new idea.  It's done by introducing another
helper called pte_has_swap_entry() which stands for case (a.1) and (a.2).
Before this patch, it will be the same as is_swap_pte() because there's no
special swap pte yet.  Now for most of the previous use of is_swap_entry() in
mm core, we'll need to use the new helper pte_has_swap_entry() instead, to make
sure we won't try to parse a swap entry from a swap special pte (which does not
contain a swap entry at all!).  We either handle the swap special pte, or it'll
naturally use the default "else" paths.

Warn properly (e.g., in do_swap_page()) when we see a special swap pte - we
should never call do_swap_page() upon those ptes, but just to bail out early if
it happens.
