Subject: [Patch v3 1/2] mm/huge_memory: add pmd folio to ds_queue in do_huge_zero_wp_pmd()
Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2025 09:54:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251008095453.18772-2-richard.weiyang@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251008095453.18772-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.com>
We add pmd folio into ds_queue on the first page fault in
__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), so that we can split it in case of
memory pressure. This should be the same for a pmd folio during wp
page fault.
Commit 1ced09e0331f ("mm: allocate THP on hugezeropage wp-fault") miss
to add it to ds_queue, which means system may not reclaim enough memory
in case of memory pressure even the pmd folio is under used.
Move deferred_split_folio() into map_anon_folio_pmd() to make the pmd
folio installation consistent.
Fixes: 1ced09e0331f ("mm: allocate THP on hugezeropage wp-fault")
