cover mm: thp: always enable mTHP support

Today, if an architecture implements has_transparent_hugepage() and the CPU lacks support for PMD-sized pages, the THP code disables all THP, including mTHP. In addition, the kernel lacks a well defined API to check for PMD-sized page support. It currently relies on has_transparent_hugepage() and thp_disabled_by_hw(), but they are not well defined and are tied to THP support.

This series addresses both issues by introducing a new well defined API to query PMD-sized page support: pgtable_has_pmd_leaves(). Using this new helper, we ensure that mTHP remains enabled even when the architecture or CPU doesn't support PMD-sized pages.

Please, note that we need to do the same refactoring for has_transparent_pud_hugepage(). I actually have patches for this one too, I'm planning to post it as a follow up to this series in the near future.

Thanks to David Hildenbrand for suggesting this improvement and for providing guidance (all bugs and misconcentpions are mine).

This is on top of latest mm-new branch commit d0a24447990a ("mm/hugetlb:
fix excessive IPI broadcasts when unsharing PMD tables using mmu_gather").

PATCH 2/11 mm: introduce pgtable_has_pmd_leaves()

In reply to Luiz Capitulino

Currently, we have two helpers that check for PMD-sized pages but have different names and slightly different semantics:

- has_transparent_hugepages(): the name suggests it checks if THP is enabled, but it actually checks if the CPU supports PMD-sized pages. It may perform a hardware check, so it can't be used in fast paths

- thp_disabled_by_hw(): the name suggests it checks if THP is disabled by the hardware, but it just returns a cached value acquired with has_transparent_hugepages(). This way, this helper can be called from fast paths

This commit introduces a new helper called pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() which is intended to replace both has_transparent_hugepages() and thp_disable_by_hw(). pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() has very clear semantics:
it returns true if the CPU supports PMD-sized pages and false otherwise. It always returns a cached value, so it can be used in fast paths.

The new helper requires an initialization step that needs to be performed very early during boot because there are pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() users that want to call it from __setup() handlers. This initialization is performed by init_arch_has_pmd_leaves(), called early from start_kernel().

The next commits will convert users of both has_transparent_hugepages() and thp_disabled_by_hw() to pgtable_has_pmd_leaves().

Using pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() here is a bit confusing because the definition of pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() is: it returns true if the CPU supports PMD-sized pages and false otherwise.

However, tmpfs and shmem already support other sizes of large folios, not just PMD-sized large folios.

So, for me, using has_transparent_hugepage() to check would be at least clearer (even though it doesn't change the functionality).

I agree with David. The thp_has_pmd_support() is not helpful too. What I mean is that the term 'pmd' shouldn't be used here. PMD-sized large folios aren't any more special than others.

shmem also supports mTHP, and a better approach might be what you did in patch 10: even if PMD-sized pages are not supported on an architecture, shmem can still use other sizes of mTHP.

PATCH 8/11 treewide: rename has_transparent_hugepage() to arch_has_pmd_leaves()

In reply to Luiz Capitulino

Now that all has_transparent_hugepage() callers have been converted to pgtable_has_pmd_leaves(), rename has_transparent_hugepage() to arch_has_pmd_leaves() since that's what the helper checks for.

arch_has_pmd_leaves() is supposed to be called only by init_arch_has_pmd_leaves(). The only temporary exception is hugepage_init() which will be converted in a future commit.

PATCH 9/11 mm: replace thp_disabled_by_hw() with pgtable_has_pmd_leaves()

In reply to Luiz Capitulino

Despite its name, thp_disabled_by_hw() only checks whether the architecture supports PMD-sized pages. It returns true when TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_UNSUPPORTED is set, which occurs if the architecture implements arch_has_pmd_leaves() and that function returns false.

Since pgtable_has_pmd_leaves() provides the same semantics, use it instead.

PATCH 10/11 mm/thp: always enable mTHP support

In reply to Luiz Capitulino

If PMD-sized pages are not supported on an architecture (ie. the arch implements arch_has_pmd_leaves() and it returns false) then the current code disables all THP, including mTHP.

This commit fixes this by allowing mTHP to be always enabled for all archs. When PMD-sized pages are not supported, its sysfs entry won't be created and their mapping will be disallowed at page-fault time.

PATCH 11/11 mm/thp: x86: cleanup PSE feature bit usage

In reply to Luiz Capitulino

Historically, THP support on x86 checked the PSE feature bit to enable THP. On 64-bit, this check is redundant since PSE is always enabled by default for compatibility. On 32-bit, PSE can enable 2 MiB or 4 MiB page sizes so it must be checked. To clean this up, this commit:

1. Drops arch_has_pmd_leaves() from common x86 code. For 64-bit, we assume PMD-sized pages are always supported

2. Checks for PSE only on 32-bit by implementing arch_has_pmd_leaves()
