* [RFC V2] mm:add zero_page _mapcount when mapped into user space @ 2014-12-02 9:27 Wang, Yalin 2014-12-02 11:30 ` Kirill A.

I don't have specific code path to point to, but I would expect zero page with non-zero mapcount would cause a problem with rmap. How do you test the change? -- Kirill A.

Basically, each and every vm_normal_page() call must be audited. As first step. And you totally skip huge zero page. Proper mapcount handling for zero page would require a lot more work and I don't think it worth it. Gain is too small.

It would be easier for userspace to find out pfn of zero page and take it into account. Note: some architectures have multiple zero page due to coloring. -- Kirill A.

Instead of tweaking mapcount you could mark zero-pages in /proc/kpageflags and handle them accordingly in userspace.
