something like this ? >From 62825870d4b48ffb53e9837dfb4cf7c0422732ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.ku...@linux.ibm.com> Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2023 22:47:00 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/mm: Avoid calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() in set_ptes With commit 9fee28baa601 ("powerpc: implement the new page table range API") we added set_ptes to powerpc architecture. The implementation included calling arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() calls. The patch removes the usage of arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() because set_pte is not supposed to be used when updating a pte entry. Powerpc architecture uses this rule to skip the expensive tlb invalidate which is not needed when you are setting up the pte for the first time. See commit 56eecdb912b5 ("mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa() for updating _PAGE_NUMA bit") for more details The patch also makes sure we are not using the interface to update a valid/present pte entry by adding VM_WARN_ON check all the ptes we are setting up. Furthermore, we add a comment to set_pte_filter to clarify it can only update folio-related flags and cannot filter pfn specific details in pte filtering. Removal of arch_enter/leave_lazy_mmu() also will avoid nesting of these functions that are not supported. For ex: remap_pte_range() -> arch_enter_lazy_mmu() -> set_ptes() -> arch_enter_lazy_mmu() -> arch_leave_lazy_mmu() -> arch_leave_lazy_mmu() Fixes: 9fee28baa601 ("powerpc: implement the new page table range API") Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.ku...@linux.ibm.com> --- arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c b/arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c index 3ba9fe411604..4d69bfb9bc11 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable.c @@ -104,6 +104,8 @@ static pte_t set_pte_filter_hash(pte_t pte) { return pte; } /* Embedded type MMU with HW exec support.
