Subject: [PATCH v3 7/7] mm: multi-gen LRU: use mmu_notifier_test_clear_young()
From: Yu Zhao <yuzhao@...gle.com>
Use mmu_notifier_{test,clear}_young_bitmap() to handle KVM PTEs in
batches when the fast path is supported. This reduces the contention on
kvm->mmu_lock when the host is under heavy memory pressure.
An existing selftest can quickly demonstrate the effectiveness of
this patch. On a generic workstation equipped with 128 CPUs and 256GB
DRAM:
$ sudo max_guest_memory_test -c 64 -m 250 -s 250

[1] "mm: rmap: Don't flush TLB after checking PTE young for page
reference" was included so that the comparison is apples to
apples.
