The whole point of HMM is to allow transparent usage of process address space on to a device like GPU. So it imply any vma (vm_area_struct) that result from usual mmap (ie any mmap either PRIVATE or SHARE as long as it is not a an mmap of a device file). It means that application can use malloc or the usual memory allocation primitive of the langage (c++, rust, python, ...) and directly use the memory it gets from that with the device. Device like GPU have a large pool of device memory that is not accessible by the CPU. This device memory has 10 times more bandwidth than system memory and has better latency then PCIE. Hence for the whole thing to make sense you need to allow to use it. For that you need to allow migration from system memory to device memory. Because you can not rely on special userspace allocator you have to assume that the vma (vm_area_struct) is a regular one. So we are left with having struct page for the device memory to allow migration to work without requiring too much changes to existing mm. Because device memory is not accessible by the CPU, you can not allow anyone to pin it and thus get_user_page* must trigger a migration back as CPU page fault would. > > So what we looking for here is struct page that can behave mostly > > like anyother except that we do not want to allow GUP to take a > > reference almost exactly what ZONE_DEVICE already provide. > > > > So do you have any fundamental objections to this patchset ?

I rather reuse something existing and modify it to support more use case than try to add ZONE_DEVICE2 or ZONE_DEVICE_I_AM_DIFFERENT. I have made sure that my modifications to ZONE_DEVICE can be use without HMM. It is just a generic interface to support page fault and to allow to track last user of a device page. Both can be use indepentently from each other. To me the whole point of kernel is trying to share infrastructure accross as many hardware as possible and i am doing just that. I do not think HMM should be block because something that use to be for one specific use case now support 2 use cases. I am not breaking anything existing. Is it more work for you ? Maybe, but at Red Hat we intend to support it for as long as it is needed so you always have some one to talk to if you want to update ZONE_DEVICE. Cheers, Jérôme
