All rights reserved. + * + * Author: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com> + * + * The struct page structures (page structs) are used to describe a physical + * page frame. By default, there is a one-to-one mapping from a page frame to + * it's corresponding page struct. + * + * HugeTLB pages consist of multiple base page size pages and is supported by + * many architectures. See hugetlbpage.rst in the Documentation directory for + * more details. On the x86-64 architecture, HugeTLB pages of size 2MB and 1GB + * are currently supported. Since the base page size on x86 is 4KB, a 2MB + * HugeTLB page consists of 512 base pages and a 1GB HugeTLB page consists of + * 4096 base pages. For each base page, there is a corresponding page struct. + * + * Within the HugeTLB subsystem, only the first 4 page structs are used to + * contain unique information about a HugeTLB page. __NR_USED_SUBPAGE provides + * this upper limit. The only 'useful' information in the remaining page structs + * is the compound_head field, and this field is the same for all tail pages. + * + * By removing redundant page structs for HugeTLB pages, memory can be returned + * to the buddy allocator for other uses. + * + * Different architectures support different HugeTLB pages. For example, the + * following table is the HugeTLB page size supported by x86 and arm64 + * architectures. Because arm64 supports 4k, 16k, and 64k base pages and + * supports contiguous entries, so it supports many kinds of sizes of HugeTLB + * page. + * + * +--------------+-----------+-----------------------------------------------+ + * | Architecture | Page Size | HugeTLB Page Size | + * +--------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ + * | x86-64 | 4KB | 2MB | 1GB | | | + * +--------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ + * | | 4KB | 64KB | 2MB | 32MB | 1GB | + * | +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ + * | arm64 | 16KB | 2MB | 32MB | 1GB | | + * | +-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ + * | | 64KB | 2MB | 512MB | 16GB | | + * +--------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+ + * + * When the system boot up, every HugeTLB page has more than one struct page + * structs which size is (unit: pages): + * + * struct_size = HugeTLB_Size / PAGE_SIZE * sizeof(struct page) / PAGE_SIZE + * + * Where HugeTLB_Size is the size of the HugeTLB page. We know that the size + * of the HugeTLB page is always n times PAGE_SIZE. So we can get the following + * relationship. + * + * HugeTLB_Size = n * PAGE_SIZE + * + * Then, + * + * struct_size = n * PAGE_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE * sizeof(struct page) / PAGE_SIZE + * = n * sizeof(struct page) / PAGE_SIZE + * + * We can use huge mapping at the pud/pmd level for the HugeTLB page. + * + * For the HugeTLB page of the pmd level mapping, then + * + * struct_size = n * sizeof(struct page) / PAGE_SIZE + * = PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(pte_t) * sizeof(struct page) / PAGE_SIZE + * = sizeof(struct page) / sizeof(pte_t) + * = 64 / 8 + * = 8 (pages) + * + * Where n is how many pte entries which one page can contains. So the value of + * n is (PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(pte_t)). + * + * This optimization only supports 64-bit system, so the value of sizeof(pte_t) + * is 8. And this optimization also applicable only when the size of struct page + * is a power of two. In most cases, the size of struct page is 64 bytes (e.g. + * x86-64 and arm64). So if we use pmd level mapping for a HugeTLB page, the + * size of struct page structs of it is 8 page frames which size depends on the + * size of the base page. + * + * For the HugeTLB page of the pud level mapping, then + * + * struct_size = PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(pmd_t) * struct_size(pmd) + * = PAGE_SIZE / 8 * 8 (pages) + * = PAGE_SIZE (pages) + * + * Where the struct_size(pmd) is the size of the struct page structs of a + * HugeTLB page of the pmd level mapping. + * + * E.g.: A 2MB HugeTLB page on x86_64 consists in 8 page frames while 1GB + * HugeTLB page consists in 4096. + * + * Next, we take the pmd level mapping of the HugeTLB page as an example to + * show the internal implementation of this optimization.
