Subject: [PATCH 2/2] huge-memory: Use fast mm counters for transparent huge pages
From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>
We found that the mm struct anon page counter cache line is much hotter
with transparent huge pages compared to small pages.
Small pages use a special fast counter mechanism in task_struct, but huge pages
didn't. The huge pages are larger than the normal 64 entry threshold for the
fast counter, so it cannot be directly used. Use a new special counter for huge
pages to handle them efficiently.
Any users just calculate the correct total.
The only special case is transferring the large page count to small pages
when splitting. I put it somewhat arbitarily into the tricky split
sequence. Some review on this part is appreciated.
[An alternative would be to not do that, but that could lead to
negative counters. These should still give the correct result]
Contains a fix for a problem found by Andrea in review.
