Subject: hugetlb: batch PMD split for bulk vmemmap dedup
Date: Fri, 15 Sep 2023 15:15:43 -0700

In an effort to minimize amount of TLB flushes, batch all PMD splits
belonging to a range of pages in order to perform only 1 (global) TLB
flush.

Add a flags field to the walker and pass whether it's a bulk allocation or
just a single page to decide to remap.  First value
(VMEMMAP_SPLIT_NO_TLB_FLUSH) designates the request to not do the TLB
flush when we split the PMD.

The patch titled
     Subject: hugetlb: batch PMD split for bulk vmemmap dedup
has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch.  Its filename is
     hugetlb-batch-pmd-split-for-bulk-vmemmap-dedup.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/hugetlb-batch-pmd-split-for-bulk-vmemmap-dedup.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything
branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

From: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins@oracle.com>
Subject: hugetlb: batch PMD split for bulk vmemmap dedup
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2023 19:31:08 -0700

In an effort to minimize amount of TLB flushes, batch all PMD splits
belonging to a range of pages in order to perform only 1 (global) TLB
flush.

Add a flags field to the walker and pass whether it's a bulk allocation or
just a single page to decide to remap.  First value
(VMEMMAP_SPLIT_NO_TLB_FLUSH) designates the request to not do the TLB
flush when we split the PMD.
