Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 18/18] arm64/mm: Automatically fold contpte mappings
Hi Ryan,
A big regression on page-fault3("Separate file shared mapping page
fault") testcase from will-it-scale on arm64, no issue on x86,
./page_fault3_processes -t 128 -s 5
1) large folio disabled on ext4:
92378735
2) large folio enabled on ext4 + CONTPTE enabled
16164943
3) large folio enabled on ext4 + CONTPTE disabled
80364074
4) large folio enabled on ext4 + CONTPTE enabled + large folio mapping
enabled in finish_fault()[2]
299656874
We found *contpte_convert* consume lots of CPU(76%) in case 2), and
disparaged by following change[2], it is easy to understood the
different between case 2) and case 4) since case 2) always map one page
size, but always try to fold contpte mappings, which spend a lot of
time. Case 4) is a workaround, any other better suggestion?
Thanks.
