khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pages
This patch extends khugepaged to support collapse of tmpfs/shmem pages.
We share fair amount of infrastructure with anon-THP collapse.
Few design points:
- First we are looking for VMA which can be suitable for mapping huge
page;
- If the VMA maps shmem file, the rest scan/collapse operations
operates on page cache, not on page tables as in anon VMA case.
- khugepaged_scan_shmem() finds a range which is suitable for huge
page. The scan is lockless and shouldn't disturb system too much.
- once the candidate for collapse is found, collapse_shmem() attempts
to create a huge page:
+ scan over radix tree, making the range point to new huge page;
+ new huge page is not-uptodate, locked and freezed (refcount
is 0), so nobody can touch them until we say so.
+ we swap in pages during the scan. khugepaged_scan_shmem()
filters out ranges with more than khugepaged_max_ptes_swap
swapped out pages. It's HPAGE_PMD_NR/8 by default.
+ old pages are isolated, unmapped and put to local list in case
to be restored back if collapse failed.
- if collapse succeed, we retract pte page tables from VMAs where huge
pages mapping is possible. The huge page will be mapped as PMD on
next minor fault into the range.
