Message-ID: <20250318051022.99DF9C4CEDD@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm/huge_memory: move folio split common code to __folio_split()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-huge_memory-move-folio-split-common-code-to-__folio_split.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/huge_memory: move folio split common code to __folio_split()
Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2025 12:39:56 -0500
This is a preparation patch for folio_split().
In the upcoming patch folio_split() will share folio unmapping and
remapping code with split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(), so move the code
to a common function __folio_split() first.
Add a TODO for splitting large shmem folio in swap cache.

- * This function splits a large folio into smaller folios of order @new_order.

- * Prerequisites:
- *
- * 1) The caller must hold a reference on the @page's owning folio, also known
- * as the large folio.
- *
- * 2) The large folio must be locked.

- * 3) The folio must not be pinned. Any unexpected folio references, including

- * will receive an -EAGAIN.
- *
- * 4) @new_order > 1, usually. Splitting to order-1 anonymous folios is not
- * supported for non-file-backed folios, because folio->_deferred_list, which
- * is used by partially mapped folios, is stored in subpage 2, but an order-1
- * folio only has subpages 0 and 1. File-backed order-1 folios are supported,
- * since they do not use _deferred_list.
- *
- * After splitting, the caller's folio reference will be transferred to @page,
- * resulting in a raised refcount of @page after this call. The other pages may
- * be freed if they are not mapped.
- *
- * If @list is null, tail pages will be added to LRU list, otherwise, to @list.
