SeongJae Park 43c4cfde7e mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED[_LOCKED]
MADV_DONTNEED[_LOCKED] handling for [process_]madvise() flushes tlb for
each vma of each address range.  Update the logic to do tlb flushes in a
batched way.  Initialize an mmu_gather object from do_madvise() and
vector_madvise(), which are the entry level functions for
[process_]madvise(), respectively.  And pass those objects to the function
for per-vma work, via madvise_behavior struct.  Make the per-vma logic not
flushes tlb on their own but just saves the tlb entries to the received
mmu_gather object.  For this internal logic change, make
zap_page_range_single_batched() non-static and use it directly from
madvise_dontneed_single_vma().  Finally, the entry level functions flush
the tlb entries that gathered for the entire user request, at once.

README

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.
