Subject: [PATCH v8 11/30] mm: split PMD swap entries into PTE swap entries
Date: Fri,  2 Oct 2026 02:52:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261002095503.3585565-12-usama.arif@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261002095503.3585565-1-usama.arif@linux.dev>

Once a PMD can hold a swap entry, everything that splits a PMD - mprotect()
or munmap() over part of the range, MADV_FREE, a pagewalk with no PMD
handler - has to be able to split that entry too. A swap PMD already passes
the pmd_is_valid_softleaf() gate, so without this it reaches
__split_huge_pmd_locked() and falls through to the present-PMD path, which
pmdp_invalidate()s it and calls pmd_page() on a non-present entry.

No reference counting is needed: a swap entry pins no folio, and swap_map
is already one per slot, so the PTEs simply take over what the PMD held.

The migration-only entry point cannot reach the new branch:
page_vma_mapped_walk() never hands back a swap PMD, and
__split_huge_pmd_locked() already asserts that to_migration_entries
implies a present or device-private PMD.

Test the pre-split old_pmd rather than re-reading *pmd in the trailing
folio_remove_rmap_pmd() gate, so every entry-type test in the function
interrogates the same snapshot. That part is cosmetic: pmdp_invalidate()
leaves the PMD present as far as software is concerned.
