Subject: [PATCH 07/16] memfd: memfd_create(name, MFD_HUGEPAGE) for shmem huge
pages
Commit 749df87bd7be ("mm/shmem: add hugetlbfs support to memfd_create()")
in 4.14 added the MFD_HUGETLB flag to memfd_create(), to use hugetlbfs
pages instead of tmpfs pages: now add the MFD_HUGEPAGE flag, to use tmpfs
Transparent Huge Pages when they can be allocated (flag named to follow
the precedent of madvise's MADV_HUGEPAGE for THPs).
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled "always" or "force"
already made this possible: but that is much too blunt an instrument,
affecting all the very different kinds of files on the internal shmem
mount, and was intended just for ease of testing hugepage loads.
MFD_HUGEPAGE is implemented internally by VM_HUGEPAGE in the shmem inode
flags: do not permit a PR_SET_THP_DISABLE (MMF_DISABLE_THP) task to set
this flag, and do not set it if THPs are not allowed at all; but let the
memfd_create() succeed even in those cases - the caller wants to create a
memfd, just hinting how it's best allocated if huge pages are available.
shmem_is_huge() (at allocation time or khugepaged time) applies its
SHMEM_HUGE_DENY and vma VM_NOHUGEPAGE and vm_mm MMF_DISABLE_THP checks
first, and only then allows the memfd's MFD_HUGEPAGE to take effect.
