From: Zi Yan <[email protected]>
To split a THP to any lower order (except order-1) pages, we need to
reform THPs on subpages at given order and add page refcount based on the
new page order. Also we need to reinitialize page_deferred_list after
removing the page from the split_queue, otherwise a subsequent split will
see list corruption when checking the page_deferred_list again.
It has many uses, like minimizing the number of pages after
truncating a huge pagecache page. For anonymous THPs, we can only split
them to order-0 like before until we add support for any size anonymous
THPs.
Order-1 folio is not supported because _deferred_list, which is used by
partially mapped folios, is stored in subpage 2 and an order-1 folio only
has subpage 0 and 1.

For anon folios it will still be in place, so the restriction will only
be dropped for !anon.

OK. But it only applies to file-backed folios IIUC. Anonymous folios still
cannot be split to order-1.

The LBS patches has the patch from Matthew which enables and allowed us
to successfully test order 1. So this restriction could be dropped if
that gets merged.

multi-size THP is now upstream. Not sure if this comment still makes sense.
Still its not completely clear to me how you would integrate this new machinery
and decide what non-zero order to split anon THP to?

IIUC, swap cache only supports one cluster size, HPAGE_PMD_NR, so splitting
a PMD-size swapcached folio will need to split a cluster to smaller ones, which
needs your patchset support. Let me know if I get it wrong.

Will change it to reflect the fact that multi-size THP is already upstream.

Originally, it was developed along with my 1GB THP support. So it was intended
to split order-18 to order-9. But for now, like you and David said in the cover
letter email thread, we might not want to use it for anonymous large folios
until we find a necessary use case.

Sure. Since multi-size THP is upstream, this avoid unnecessary code path if

Is the swap-out small-size THP without splitting merged? This needs that patchset.
You are right that a warning here is not appropriate. I will fail the splitting
if the folio is swapcached and going to be split into >0 order.
