[merged mm-stable] mm-hugetlb_vmemmap-batch-hvo-work-when-demoting.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: batch HVO work when demoting
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-hugetlb_vmemmap-batch-hvo-work-when-demoting.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: batch HVO work when demoting
Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2024 16:48:23 -0600

Batch the HVO work, including de-HVO of the source and HVO of the
destination hugeTLB folios, to speed up demotion.

After commit bd225530a4c7 ("mm/hugetlb_vmemmap: fix race with speculative
PFN walkers"), each request of HVO or de-HVO, batched or not, invokes
synchronize_rcu() once.  For example, when not batched, demoting one 1GB
hugeTLB folio to 512 2MB hugeTLB folios invokes synchronize_rcu() 513
times (1 de-HVO plus 512 HVO requests), whereas when batched, only twice
(1 de-HVO plus 1 HVO request).  And the performance difference between the
two cases is significant, e.g.,

  echo 2048kB >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size
  time echo 100 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/demote

Before this patch:
  real     8m58.158s
  user     0m0.009s
  sys      0m5.900s

After this patch:
  real     0m0.900s
  user     0m0.000s
  sys      0m0.851s

Note that this patch changes the behavior of the `demote` interface when
de-HVO fails.  Before, the interface aborts immediately upon failure; now,
it tries to finish an entire batch, meaning it can make extra progress if
the rest of the batch contains folios that do not need to de-HVO.
