Subject: [PATCH v4 02/12] mm/rmap: Add try_to_unmap_hugetlb_one
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 12:06:25 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526063635.61721-3-dev.jain@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260526063635.61721-1-dev.jain@arm.com>

Simplify try_to_unmap_one by separating out the hugetlb parts into
try_to_unmap_hugetlb_one.

To understand the correctness of the refactoring, the following points
are noted:

1. try_to_unmap() is called for hugetlb folios only when they are
   hwpoisoned.

2. A hugetlb VMA cannot be mlocked.

3. The pvmw API sets pvmw.pte to the base of the hugetlb folio (pvmw.pmd
   is NULL).

4. We won't ever process a softleaf entry that encodes a hugetlb folio;
   hugetlb folios are never swapped out, migration entries will be skipped
   (PVMW_MIGRATION not passed) and device-exclusive does not work for
   hugetlb.

5. uffd-wp bit is lost when converting pvmw.pte to hwpoison softleaf
   (therefore no need to call pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed after
   clearing pvmw.pte)

6. TTU_HWPOISON is always present; for it to not be present, either folio
   has to be in swapcache, or mapping_can_writeback() is true (see
   unmap_poisoned_folio), none of which is true for hugetlb folios.

7. hugetlb uses separate counters from normal rss counters, therefore
   update_highwater_rss() need not be called.

While at it:

 - Change VM_BUG_* to VM_WARN_*.

 - Do not declare variables which are only used once

 - Assert that the subpage derived by the pvmw walk is exactly the head
   page. This is because try_to_unmap() does not remember the specific
   subpage which was hwpoisoned, and, since we cannot munmap/mremap
   across a hugetlb folio partially, the first pte mapping the hugetlb
   folio (in case of a contpte or contpmd mapped folio) cannot ever point
   to an intermediate page.
