[PATCH v1 13/15] mm: handling Non-LRU pages returned by vm_normal_pages

Alex Sierra
2022-05-05T21:35:39Z

With DEVICE_COHERENT, we'll soon have vm_normal_pages() return
device-managed anonymous pages that are not LRU pages. Although they
behave like normal pages for purposes of mapping in CPU page, and for
COW. They do not support LRU lists, NUMA migration or THP.

We also introduced a FOLL_LRU flag that adds the same behaviour to
follow_page and related APIs, to allow callers to specify that they
expect to put pages on an LRU list.
