mm/migrate: optimize migrate_vma_setup() for holes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Patch series "mm/migrate: optimize migrate_vma_setup() for holes".

A simple optimization for migrate_vma_*() when the source vma is not an
anonymous vma and a new test case to exercise it.

This patch (of 2):

When migrating system memory to device private memory, if the source
address range is a valid VMA range and there is no memory or a zero page,
the source PFN array is marked as valid but with no PFN.

This lets the device driver allocate private memory and clear it, then
insert the new device private struct page into the CPU's page tables when
migrate_vma_pages() is called.  migrate_vma_pages() only inserts the new
page if the VMA is an anonymous range.

There is no point in telling the device driver to allocate device private
memory and then not migrate the page.  Instead, mark the source PFN array
entries as not migrating to avoid this overhead.
