Subject: [PATCH v5 17/28] mm: page_reporting: add per-page zeroed bitmap for host feedback
Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 18:23:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8f7e00cf0ab76d2d393e043bf82cca32546e9e4f.1778192416.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1778192416.git.mst@redhat.com>
The host may skip zeroing some reported pages (e.g., due to alignment
constraints or bounce buffer fallback in QEMU). Currently, when
host_zeroes_pages is set, all reported pages are unconditionally
marked PG_zeroed - even ones the host did not actually zero.
Add a zeroed_bitmap to page_reporting_dev_info that the report()
callback can use to indicate which pages were actually zeroed.
The driver's report() callback is responsible for managing the
bitmap: zeroing it before sending pages to the host, then setting
bits for pages the host actually zeroed.
page_reporting_drain() checks the bitmap per-page in addition to the
global host_zeroes_pages flag.
No driver sets host_zeroes_pages yet, so the static key is
off and the bitmap is never read. Behavior is unchanged.
