Instead of checking the anon_vma early in the fault path where all page faults pay the cost, delay it until we know we're going to need the anon_vma to be filled in. This will have a slight negative effect on the first fault in an anonymous VMA, but it shortens every other page fault. It also makes the code slightly cleaner as the anon and file backed fault handling look more similar. The Intel kernel test bot reports a 3x improvement in vm-scalability throughput with the small-allocs-mt test. This is clearly an extreme situation that won't be replicated in any real-world workload, but it's a nice win. https://lore.kernel.org/all/202404261055.c5e24608-oliver.sang@intel.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240426144506.1290619-3-willy@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
