Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] promote mapped executable folios after first usage for MGLRU
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2026 18:46:17 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1784197559.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)

Now MGLRU's protection of mapped executable file folios is less reliable.
Follow the classical LRU's logic, promoting mapped executable file folios
after their first usage to give executable code a better chance to stay in
memory and improve workload performance (See patch 2 for more details).

Changes from v1:
 - Add a new patch to clean up vma flags as preparation.
 - Add a new helper to check exec file folios (per Kaisui).
 - Promote exec file folios in lru_gen_set_refs (Per Sashiko).
