Subject: [PATCH RFC 0/9] mm/huge_memory: refactor __split_huge_pmd_locked()
Date: Sat, 29 Aug 2026 02:33:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1787941780.git.yintirui@gmail.com> (raw)

__split_huge_pmd_locked() currently decides from the VMA --
vma_is_anonymous(), then vma_is_special_huge() -- before inspecting the PMD
entry, so split and zap can classify the same PMD differently. The entry
itself should decide. The function also mixes the present and non-present
cases, resulting in duplicated code.

This series uses the PMD entry and its folio to decide how to handle each
PMD, as zap_huge_pmd() does. It separates the present and non-present paths
and moves their common work into helper functions. After this change,
__split_huge_pmd_locked() only selects the appropriate helper.

Yin Tirui (9):
  mm/huge_memory: read the huge PMD entry once when splitting it
  mm/huge_memory: add and use huge_zero_pmd_can_split()
  mm/huge_memory: add and use unmap_huge_pmd_entry()
  mm/huge_memory: use normal_or_softleaf_folio_pmd() in the PMD split
    path
  mm/huge_memory: dispatch on the folio when splitting a huge PMD
  mm/huge_memory: add and use split_huge_pmd_anon_rmap()
  mm/huge_memory: add struct split_pmd_state
  mm/huge_memory: split present and non-present huge PMDs separately
  mm/huge_memory: unify the migration and device private PTE loops
