Subject: [PATCH v3 01/14] mm: Convert pXd_devmap checks to vma_is_dax
Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2025 18:57:53 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f0611f6f475f48fcdf34c65084a359aefef4cccc.1750323463.git-series.apopple@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.176965585864cb8d2cf41464b44dcc0471e643a0.1750323463.git-series.apopple@nvidia.com>
Currently dax is the only user of pmd and pud mapped ZONE_DEVICE
pages. Therefore page walkers that want to exclude DAX pages can check
pmd_devmap or pud_devmap. However soon dax will no longer set PFN_DEV,
meaning dax pages are mapped as normal pages.
Ensure page walkers that currently use pXd_devmap to skip DAX pages
continue to do so by adding explicit checks of the VMA instead.
Remove vma_is_dax() check from mm/userfaultfd.c as validate_move_areas()
will already skip DAX VMA's on account of them not being anonymous.
The check in userfaultfd_must_wait() is also redundant as
vma_can_userfault() should have already filtered out dax vma's.
For HMM the pud_devmap check seems unnecessary as there is no reason we
shouldn't be able to handle any leaf PUD here so remove it also.
