Subject: [PATCHv5 00/11] split page table lock for PMD tables
Alex Thorlton noticed that some massively threaded workloads work poorly,
if THP enabled. This patchset fixes this by introducing split page table
lock for PMD tables. hugetlbfs is not covered yet.
This patchset is based on work by Naoya Horiguchi.
Please review and consider applying.
Changes:
v5:
- do not use split page table lock on 32-bit machines with
GENERIC_LOCKBREAK enabled -- otherwise it increases sizeof(struct
page).
We probably should fallback to dynamic allocation of page->ptl if
sizeof(spinlock_t) > sizeof(long);
- atomic_long_t instead pf atomic_t for mm->nr_ptes;
- drop irrelevant comment in <linux/mm_types.h>;
v4:
- convert hugetlb to new locking;
v3:
- fix USE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCKS;
- fix warning in fs/proc/task_mmu.c;
v2:
- reuse CONFIG_SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS for PMD split lock;
- s/huge_pmd_lock/pmd_lock/g;
- assume pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() can fail;
- fix format line in task_mem() for VmPTE;

Kirill A. Shutemov (11):
mm: avoid increase sizeof(struct page) due to split page table lock

mm: convert mm->nr_ptes to atomic_long_t
mm: introduce api for split page table lock for PMD level
mm, thp: change pmd_trans_huge_lock() to return taken lock
mm, thp: move ptl taking inside page_check_address_pmd()
mm, thp: do not access mm->pmd_huge_pte directly
mm, hugetlb: convert hugetlbfs to use split pmd lock
mm: convent the rest to new page table lock api
mm: implement split page table lock for PMD level
x86, mm: enable split page table lock for PMD level
