similar to: [PATCH v3 0/5] mm/hmm/nouveau: add PMD system memory mapping

The goal for this series is to introduce the hmm_range_fault() output array flags HMM_PFN_PMD and HMM_PFN_PUD. This allows a device driver to know that a given 4K PFN is actually mapped by the CPU using either a PMD sized or PUD sized CPU page table entry and therefore the device driver can safely map system memory using larger device MMU PTEs. The series is based on 5.8.0-rc3 and is intended for

hmm_range_fault() returns an array of page frame numbers and flags for how the pages are mapped in the requested process' page tables. The PFN can be used to get the struct page with hmm_pfn_to_page() and the page size order can be determined with compound_order(page) but if the page is larger than order 0 (PAGE_SIZE), there is no indication that the page is mapped using a larger page size. To

These patches apply to linux-5.8.0-rc1. Patches 1-3 should probably go into 5.8, the others can be queued for 5.9. Patches 4-6 improve the HMM self tests. Patch 7-8 prepare nouveau for the meat of this series which adds support and testing for compound page mapping of system memory (patches 9-11) and compound page migration to device private memory (patches 12-16). Since these changes are split

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg at mellanox.com> The API is a bit complicated for the uses we actually have, and disucssions for simplifying have come up a number of times. This small series removes the customizable pfn format and simplifies the return code of hmm_range_fault() All the drivers are adjusted to process in the simplified format. I would appreciated tested-by's for the two

Nouveau currently only supports mapping PAGE_SIZE sized pages of system memory when shared virtual memory (SVM) is enabled. Use the new HMM_PFN_COMPOUND flag that hmm_range_fault() returns to support mapping system memory pages larger than PAGE_SIZE.

I do not think there is anything usefull to discuss from mm point of view but i might be wrong, so just for the curious :)). git://people.freedesktop.org/~glisse/linux branch: nouveau-hmm-v00

The goal for this series is to avoid device private memory TLB invalidations when migrating a range of addresses from system memory to device private memory and some of those pages have already been migrated. The approach taken is to introduce a new mmu notifier invalidation event type and use that in the device driver to skip invalidation callbacks from migrate_vma_setup(). The device driver is

The SVM page fault handler groups faults into a range of contiguous virtual addresses and requests hmm_range_fault() to populate and return the page frame number of system memory mapped by the CPU. In preparation for supporting large pages to be mapped by the GPU, process faults one page at a time. In addition, use the hmm_range default_flags to fix a corner case where the input hmm_pfns array is

When acting on device private mappings a driver needs to know if the device (or other entity in case of kvmppc) actually owns this private mapping. This series adds an owner field and converts the migrate_vma code over to check it. I looked into doing the same for hmm_range_fault, but as far as I can tell that code has never been wired up to actually work for device private memory, so instead of

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg at mellanox.com> Presumably the intent here was that hmm_range_fault() could put the data into some HW specific format and thus avoid some work. However, nothing actually does that, and it isn't clear how anything actually could do that as hmm_range_fault() provides CPU addresses which must be DMA mapped. Perhaps there is some special HW that does not need

From: Thierry Reding <treding at nvidia.com> Hi Ben, these are a couple of patches that are in preparation for adding GV11B support. The fundamental issue that these are trying to solve is that the GV11B is the first Tegra incarnation of the GPU where the aperture really matters. All prior generations would accept any of them. For dGPUs we usually allocate memory in VRAM, so the default
