mm,unmap: avoid flushing TLB in batch if PTE is inaccessible
0Day/LKP reported a performance regression for commit 7e12beb8ca2a
("migrate_pages: batch flushing TLB"). In the commit, the TLB flushing
during page migration is batched. So, in try_to_migrate_one(),
ptep_clear_flush() is replaced with set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending(). In
further investigation, it is found that the TLB flushing can be avoided in
ptep_clear_flush() if the PTE is inaccessible. In fact, we can optimize
in similar way for the batched TLB flushing too to improve the
performance.
So in this patch, we check pte_accessible() before
set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() in try_to_unmap/migrate_one(). Tests show
that the benchmark score of the anon-cow-rand-mt test case of
vm-scalability test suite can improve up to 2.1% with the patch on a Intel
server machine. The TLB flushing IPI can reduce up to 44.3%.
