Subject: [PATCH 05/13] mm: add PMD swap entry detection support
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 03:01:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427100553.2754667-6-usama.arif@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260427100553.2754667-1-usama.arif@linux.dev>

Currently when a PMD-mapped THP is swapped out, the PMD is always split
into 512 PTE-level swap entries.  To preserve huge page information
across swap cycles, later patches will install a single PMD-level swap
entry instead.  This patch adds the infrastructure to detect those
entries.

Teach the softleaf layer to recognise PMD swap entries:
pmd_is_swap_entry() detects them and softleaf_is_valid_pmd_entry()
accepts them as a valid non-present type.  Clear the exclusive overlay
bit in softleaf_from_pmd() before decoding, matching how soft_dirty and
uffd_wp bits are already stripped.

Add pmd_swp_mkexclusive(), pmd_swp_exclusive(), and
pmd_swp_clear_exclusive() helpers to each architecture that supports
THP migration (x86, arm64, s390, riscv, loongarch), mirroring the
existing PTE swap exclusive helpers in each arch's pgtable.h.
