For drivers that would like to longterm-pin the pages associated
with a file, the pin_user_pages_fd() API provides an option to
not only FOLL_PIN the pages but also to check and migrate them
if they reside in movable zone or CMA block. For now, this API
can only work with files belonging to shmem or hugetlbfs given
that the udmabuf driver is the only user.

It must be noted that the pages associated with hugetlbfs files
are expected to be found in the page cache. An error is returned
if they are not found. However, shmem pages can be swapped in or
allocated if they are not present in the page cache.

Maybe add "Other files are rejected.". Wasn't clear to me before I 
looked into the code.

This does look quite neat, nice! Let's take a closer look ...

completely unused. And most likely we would want a different set of

I'd drop the "and migrate" part, it's more of an implementation detail.

Why don't we do the same for hugetlbfs? Would make the interface more 
streamlined.

Certainly add that pinned pages have to be released using 
unpin_user_pages().

I think we should just forbid that and use a WARN_ON_ONCE() here / 
return -EINVAL. So we'll never end up returning 0.

If migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() failed, say with -ENOMEM, the 
pages were already unpinned, but pages[i] has not been cleared, no?

Why is the check even needed? It looked like it just runs through
normally and returns 0, that is fine..

I think the caller should pass in the file *

In some cases we will need to hold a reference on it for a long time.

I don't know these APIs at all, but I admit to being surprised we need
the special case for shmem ?

It seems OK, but I do wish it was faster :) Maybe for another day.

Right now, FOLL_LONGTERM is the only accepted value for gup_flags but
yes, as you suggest, this can be made implicit by dropping gup_flags.

I am going off of what Mike has stated previously:
"It may not matter to your users, but the semantics for hugetlb and shmem
pages is different.  hugetlb requires the pages exist in the page cache
while shmem will create/add pages to the cache if necessary."

However, if we were to allocate a hugepage (assuming one is not present in the
page cache at a given index), what needs to be done in addition to calling these APIs?
folio = alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(h, NUMA_NO_NODE, NULL, GFP_USER)
hugetlb_add_to_page_cache(folio, mapping, idx)

You are right; the above while should not be executed in that case. I added
this chunk to cleanup after any errors thrown in the for loop above. I guess
I need to add a new error label to cleanup after errors thrown by
check_and_migrate_movable_pages().
