<title>mm/rmap.c: avoid double faults migrating device private pages</title>

<content type='text'>
During migration special page table entries are installed for each page
being migrated.  These entries store the pfn and associated permissions
of ptes mapping the page being migarted.

Device-private pages use special swap pte entries to distinguish
read-only vs.  writeable pages which the migration code checks when
creating migration entries.  Normally this follows a fast path in
migrate_vma_collect_pmd() which correctly copies the permissions of
device-private pages over to migration entries when migrating pages back
to the CPU.

However the slow-path falls back to using try_to_migrate() which
unconditionally creates read-only migration entries for device-private
pages.  This leads to unnecessary double faults on the CPU as the new
pages are always mapped read-only even when they could be mapped
writeable.  Fix this by correctly copying device-private permissions in
try_to_migrate_one().

<title>mm/rmap: Add folio_mkclean()</title>

<id>d9c08e2232fbca4fa56b9350f7f84835c4aa3add</id>
<content type='text'>
Transform page_mkclean() into folio_mkclean() and add a page_mkclean()
wrapper around folio_mkclean().

folio_mkclean is 15 bytes smaller than page_mkclean, but the kernel
is enlarged by 33 bytes due to inlining page_folio() into each caller.
This will go away once the callers are converted to use folio_mkclean().

<id>730633f0b7f951726e87f912a6323641f674ae34</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead
against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is
like:

fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)			read / fault / ..
  truncate_inode_pages_range()
						  &lt;create pages in page
						   cache here&gt;
  &lt;update fs block mapping and free blocks&gt;

Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can
instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks
get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do
not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given
range. inode-&gt;i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under
mmap_sem which ranks below inode-&gt;i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes
the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer.

So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock -
that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads /
readahead.

not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given
range. inode-&gt;i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under
mmap_sem which ranks below inode-&gt;i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes
the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer.

So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock -
that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads /
readahead.

Many thanks to Kirill for reminding that PageDoubleMap cannot be relied on
to warn of pte mappings in the Anon THP case; and a scan of subpages does
not seem appropriate here.  Note how follow_trans_huge_pmd() does not even
mark an Anon THP as mlocked when compound_mapcount != 1: multiple mlocking
of Anon THP is avoided, so simply return from page_mlock() in this case.

inode-&gt;i_mutex has been replaced with inode-&gt;i_rwsem long ago. Fix
comments still mentioning i_mutex.
