[PATCH 14/35] mm, dmem: dmem-pmd vs thp-pmd

From: yulei . kernel
Date: Thu Oct 08 2020 - 03:55:30 EST


From: Yulei Zhang <yuleixzhang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

A dmem huge page is ultimately not a transparent huge page. As we
decided to use pmd_special() to distinguish dmem-pmd from thp-pmd,
we should make some slightly different semantics between pmd_special()
and pmd_trans_huge(), just as pmd_devmap() in upstream. This distinction
is especially important in some mm-core paths such as zap_pmd_range().

Explicitly mark the pmd_trans_huge() helpers that dmem needs by adding
pmd_special() checks. This method could be reused in many mm-core paths.
