Series mm/mprotect: avoid unnecessary TLB flushes | expand

Commit Message

Nadav Amit Oct. 21, 2021, 12:21 p.m. UTC 
From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

change_pXX_range() currently does not use mmu_gather, but instead
implements its own deferred TLB flushes scheme. This both complicates
the code, as developers need to be aware of different invalidation
schemes, and prevents opportunities to avoid TLB flushes or perform them
in finer granularity.

The use of mmu_gather for modified PTEs has benefits in various
scenarios even if pages are not released. For instance, if only a single
page needs to be flushed out of a range of many pages, only that page
would be flushed. If a THP page is flushed, on x86 a single TLB invlpg
instruction can be used instead of 512 instructions (or a full TLB
flush, which would Linux would actually use by default). mprotect() over
multiple VMAs requires a single flush.

Use mmu_gather in change_pXX_range(). As the pages are not released,
only record the flushed range using tlb_flush_pXX_range().

Handle THP similarly and get rid of flush_cache_range() which becomes
redundant since tlb_start_vma() calls it when needed.
