Subject: [PATCH 8/9] mm/rmap: introduce folio_try_share_anon_rmap_ptes
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 13:00:12 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260310073013.4069309-9-dev.jain@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260310073013.4069309-1-dev.jain@arm.com>
In the quest of enabling batched unmapping of anonymous folios, we need to
handle the sharing of exclusive pages. Hence, a batched version of
folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pte is required.
Currently, the sole purpose of nr_pages in __folio_try_share_anon_rmap is
to do some rmap sanity checks. Add helpers to set and clear the
PageAnonExclusive bit on a batch of nr_pages. Note that
__folio_try_share_anon_rmap can receive nr_pages == HPAGE_PMD_NR from the
PMD path, but currently we only clear the bit on the head page. Retain this
behaviour by setting nr_pages = 1 in case the caller is
folio_try_share_anon_rmap_pmd.
