[PATCH 2/3] hugetlb: Demand fault handler

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Version 5 (Tue, 11 Oct 2005)
	Deal with hugetlbfs file truncation in find_get_huge_page()
Version 4 (Mon, 03 Oct 2005)
	Make find_get_huge_page bale properly when add_to_page_cache fails
	  due to OOM conditions
Version 3 (Thu, 08 Sep 2005)
        Organized logic in hugetlb_pte_fault() by breaking out
          find_get_page/alloc_huge_page logic into separate function
        Removed a few more paranoid checks  ( Thanks       )
        Fixed tlb flushing in a race case   ( Yanmin Zhang )

Version 2 (Wed, 17 Aug 2005)
        Removed spurious WARN_ON()
    Patches added earlier in the series (now in mainline):
        Check for p?d_none() in arch/i386/mm/hugetlbpage.c:huge_pte_offset()
        Move i386 stale pte check into huge_pte_alloc()

Initial Post (Fri, 05 Aug 2005)

Below is a patch to implement demand faulting for huge pages.  The main
motivation for changing from prefaulting to demand faulting is so that
huge page memory areas can be allocated according to NUMA policy.

Thanks to consolidated hugetlb code, switching the behavior requires changing
only one fault handler.  The bulk of the patch just moves the logic from 
hugelb_prefault() to hugetlb_pte_fault() and find_get_huge_page().
