[PATCH v13 06/10] secretmem: use PMD-size pages to amortize direct map fragmentation

Mike Rapoport rppt at kernel.org
Tue Dec 1 02:45:55 EST 2020


From: Mike Rapoport <rppt at linux.ibm.com>

Removing a PAGE_SIZE page from the direct map every time such page is
allocated for a secret memory mapping will cause severe fragmentation of
the direct map. This fragmentation can be reduced by using PMD-size pages
as a pool for small pages for secret memory mappings.

Add a gen_pool per secretmem inode and lazily populate this pool with
PMD-size pages.

As pages allocated by secretmem become unmovable, use CMA to back large
page caches so that page allocator won't be surprised by failing attempt to
migrate these pages.

The CMA area used by secretmem is controlled by the "secretmem=" kernel
parameter. This allows explicit control over the memory available for
secretmem and provides upper hard limit for secretmem consumption.
