Sorry, no, my viewpoint is just a thought experiment.
udmabuf_folios is 24bytes, if each folio just 4KB, the additional memory
occupied will be very high, far exceeding the size of the page pointer.
"list_head" is a linked list, and accessing it is not CPU
cache-friendly, making prefetching difficult.
On the other hand, "page array" is a cache-friendly data structure.

Agree.

I haven't considered that HVO would have an impact on this.
If so, does it mean that we cannot guarantee the correct reference to
all Pages under the folio?
I see vmap and sgt based on page, I HVO already freed all sub page's
struct, These uses will all become unreasonable.
BTW, if page struct can't relyable, can we just save pfn array? Hmm, but
many of they just rely on page.

My only use case at the moment is to read large files (around 3GB) using
udmabuf in direct I/O mode.
This means that if HUGETLB is not used, the udmabuf_folio structure will
be particularly large.(((3 << 30) >> 12) * 24) 18MB
And the list when pin(add), unpin(del), may cost a bit.

Could you please describe it in detail? I didn't understand.

Considering the existence of HVO, I also feel the need to find further
optimization methods.
Thanks.
