Subject: [RESEND v7 08/29] mm: recognize PMD swap entries in the softleaf layer
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 05:27:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914122950.3283997-9-usama.arif@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260914122950.3283997-1-usama.arif@linux.dev>

Reclaim splits a PMD-mapped anonymous THP into PTE-level swap entries
before unmapping it, so an ordinary swap entry has never had to appear in a
PMD. Later patches install one there instead, and the softleaf layer is
where every consumer decodes non-present PMDs.

Accept swap entries as valid PMD softleaves and add pmd_is_swap_entry().
A swap entry carries no PFN, so make pmd_softleaf_to_folio() warn and
return NULL rather than interpret a swap offset as a page frame number.

Unlike migration and device-private entries, a PMD swap entry can also
carry the swap-exclusive marker, which softleaf_from_pmd() has to strip
before decoding. Strip all three overlays unconditionally while we are
here: each clear is a plain bit clear, so testing first only buys a branch.
