Subject: [PATCH V4] mm/gup: Clear the LRU flag of a page before adding to LRU batch
From: yangge <yangge1116@....com>
If a large number of CMA memory are configured in system (for example, the
CMA memory accounts for 50% of the system memory), starting a virtual
virtual machine with device passthrough, it will
call pin_user_pages_remote(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to pin memory.
Normally if a page is present and in CMA area, pin_user_pages_remote()
will migrate the page from CMA area to non-CMA area because of
FOLL_LONGTERM flag. But the current code will cause the migration failure
due to unexpected page refcounts, and eventually cause the virtual machine
fail to start.
If a page is added in LRU batch, its refcount increases one, remove the
page from LRU batch decreases one. Page migration requires the page is not
referenced by others except page mapping. Before migrating a page, we
should try to drain the page from LRU batch in case the page is in it,
however, folio_test_lru() is not sufficient to tell whether the page is
in LRU batch or not, if the page is in LRU batch, the migration will fail.
To solve the problem above, we modify the logic of adding to LRU batch.
Before adding a page to LRU batch, we clear the LRU flag of the page so
that we can check whether the page is in LRU batch by folio_test_lru(page).
It's quite valuable, because likely we don't want to blindly drain the LRU
batch simply because there is some unexpected reference on a page, as
described above.
This change makes the LRU flag of a page invisible for longer, which
may impact some programs. For example, as long as a page is on a LRU
batch, we cannot isolate it, and we cannot check if it's an LRU page.
Further, a page can now only be on exactly one LRU batch. This doesn't
seem to matter much, because a new page is allocated from buddy and
added to the lru batch, or be isolated, it's LRU flag may also be
invisible for a long time.
