Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 1/3] mm/migrate: factor out movable_ops page handling into migrate_movable_ops_page()
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 11:24:10 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428152412.3034119-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026042723-large-sedan-f63a@gregkh>
From: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit b9ed00483d4cbacca04edb11984d8daf09e9ae22 ]
Let's factor it out, simplifying the calling code.
Before this change, we would have called flush_dcache_folio() also on
movable_ops pages. As documented in Documentation/core-api/cachetlb.rst:
"This routine need only be called for page cache pages which can
potentially ever be mapped into the address space of a user
process."
So don't do it for movable_ops pages. If there would ever be such a
movable_ops page user, it should do the flushing itself after performing
the copy.
Note that we can now change folio_mapping_flags() to folio_test_anon() to
make it clearer, because movable_ops pages will never take that path.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix kerneldoc]
