Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Speed up mremap on large regions
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 22:21:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200930222130.4175584-1-kaleshsingh@google.com> (raw)

mremap time can be optimized by moving entries at the PMD/PUD level if
the source and destination addresses are PMD/PUD-aligned and
PMD/PUD-sized. Enable moving at the PMD and PUD levels on arm64 and
x86. Other architectures where this type of move is supported and known to
be safe can also opt-in to these optimizations by enabling HAVE_MOVE_PMD
and HAVE_MOVE_PUD.

Observed Performance Improvements for remapping a PUD-aligned 1GB-sized
region on x86 and arm64:

    - HAVE_MOVE_PMD is already enabled on x86 : N/A
    - Enabling HAVE_MOVE_PUD on x86   : ~13x speed up

    - Enabling HAVE_MOVE_PMD on arm64 : ~ 8x speed up
    - Enabling HAVE_MOVE_PUD on arm64 : ~19x speed up

          Altogether, HAVE_MOVE_PMD and HAVE_MOVE_PUD
          give a total of ~150x speed up on arm64.

Kalesh Singh (5):
  kselftests: vm: Add mremap tests
  arm64: mremap speedup - Enable HAVE_MOVE_PMD
  mm: Speedup mremap on 1GB or larger regions
  arm64: mremap speedup - Enable HAVE_MOVE_PUD
  x86: mremap speedup - Enable HAVE_MOVE_PUD
