Subject: [RFC, PATCH] mm: unified interface to handle page table entries on different levels?
Linux VM was built with fixed page size in mind. We have rich API to
deal with page table entries, but it focused mostly on one level of page
tables -- PTE.
As huge pages was added we duplicated routines on demand for other page
tables level (PMD, PUD). With separate APIs it's hard to harmonize huge
pages support code with rest of VM.
Can we do better than that?
Below is my attempt to play with the problem. I've took one function --
page_referenced_one() -- which looks ugly because of different APIs for
PTE/PMD and convert it to use vpte_t. vpte_t is union for pte_t, pmd_t
and pud_t.
Basically, the idea is instead of having different helpers to handle
PTE/PMD/PUD, we have one, which take pair of vpte_t + pglevel.
Should we try this way? Any suggestions?
