Subject: [PATCH 00/11] transfer page to folio in KSM

From: "Alex Shi (tencent)" <[email protected]>

This is the first part of page to folio transfer on KSM. Since only
single page could be stored in KSM, we could safely transfer stable tree
pages to folios.
This patchset could reduce ksm.o size to 2487136 from 2547952 bytes on
latest akpm/mm-stable branch with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled.


Alex Shi (tencent) (11):
mm/ksm: Convert get_ksm_page to return a folio
mm/ksm: use a folio in remove_rmap_item_from_tree
mm/ksm: use a folio in remove_stable_node
mm/ksm: use folio in stable_node_dup
mm/ksm: use a folio in scan_get_next_rmap_item func
mm/ksm: use folio in write_protect_page
mm/ksm: Convert chain series funcs to use folio
mm/ksm: Convert stable_tree_insert to use folio
mm/ksm: Convert stable_tree_search to use folio
mm/ksm: rename get_ksm_page to get_ksm_folio and return type
mm/ksm: return folio for chain series funcs

Subject: [PATCH 01/11] mm/ksm: Convert get_ksm_page to return a folio

From: "Alex Shi (tencent)" <[email protected]>

The ksm only contains single pages, so use folio instead of pages to
save a couple of compound_head calls.

Subject: [PATCH 09/11] mm/ksm: Convert stable_tree_search to use folio

From: "Alex Shi (tencent)" <[email protected]>

Although, the func may pass a tail page to check its contents, but only
single page exist in KSM stable tree, so we still can use folio in
stable_tree_search() to save a few compound_head calls.

I am really not a fan of returning void * instead of a page or a
folio. Particularly since you rename this function at the end anyway!

You should do it like this:

In this patch, convert get_ksm_page() to get_ksm_folio() and add:

static struct page *get_ksm_page(struct ksm_stable_node *stable_node,
enum get_ksm_page_flags flags)
{
struct folio *folio = get_ksm_folio(node, flags);
return &folio->page;
}

Then convert each call-site to get_ksm_folio(), and finally delete
get_ksm_page(). That way you're always converting each caller to
the exact code you want it to look like, and your reiewrs don't have to
keep three patches in their head at once as they review each place.

Also, I think this should be ksm_get_folio(), not get_ksm_folio().
Seems to fit better.

Could you fix page->mapping to folio->mapping in the comment?

Before this patch, introduce a folio_set_stable_node() (and convert the
one caller which already has a folio). I'd do it the other way around
from ksm_get_folio(); that is:

static inline void folio_set_stable_node(struct folio *folio,
struct ksm_stable_node *stable_node)
{
set_page_stable_node(&folio->page, stable_node);
}

and then we can merge the two later when there are no more calls to
set_page_stable_node().

We don't yet have a folio_address_in_vma(). This needs more study,
so I approve of how you've converted this line.

I don't love this cast. I see why it's safe (called split_huge_page()
above), but I'd rather see a call to page_folio() just to keep things
tidy.

These casts make me nervous. Remember that we're heading towards a
future where struct page and struct folio don't point to the same
memory, and part of that will be finding all these casts and removing
