At the moment xtensa uses slab allocator for PTE table. It doesn't work with enabled split page table lock: slab uses page->slab_cache and page->first_page for its pages. These fields share stroage with page->ptl. Signed-off-by:

In split page table lock case, we embed spinlock_t into struct page. For obvious reason, we don't want to increase size of struct page if spinlock_t is too big, like with DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC or on -rt kernel. So we disable split page table lock, if spinlock_t is too big. This patchset allows to allocate the lock dynamically if spinlock_t is big. In this page->ptl is used to store pointer to spinlock instead of spinlock itself. It costs additional cache line for indirect access, but fix page fault scalability for multi-threaded applications. LOCK_STAT depends on DEBUG_SPINLOCK, so on current kernel enabling LOCK_STAT to analyse scalability issues breaks scalability. ;) The patchset mostly fixes this. Results for ./thp_memscale -c 80 -b 512M on 4-socket machine: baseline, no CONFIG_LOCK_STAT: 9.115460703 seconds time elapsed baseline, CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y: 53.890567123 seconds time elapsed patched, no CONFIG_LOCK_STAT: 8.852250368 seconds time elapsed patched, CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y: 11.069770759 seconds time elapsed Patch count is scary, but most of them trivial. Overview: Patches 1-4 Few bug fixes. No dependencies to other patches. Probably should applied as soon as possible. Patch 5 Changes signature of pgtable_page_ctor(). We will use it for dynamic lock allocation, so it can fail. Patches 6-8 Add missing constructor/destructor calls on few archs. It's fixes NR_PAGETABLE accounting and prepare to use split ptl. Patches 9-33 Add pgtable_page_ctor() fail handling to all archs. Patches 34 Finally adds support of dynamically-allocated page->pte. Also contains documentation for split page table lock. This patch (of 34): I've missed that we preallocate few pmds on pgd_alloc() if X86_PAE enabled. Let's add missed constructor/destructor calls. I haven't noticed it during testing since prep_new_page() clears page->mapping and therefore page->ptl. It's effectively equal to spin_lock_init(&page->ptl). Signed-off-by:

The basic idea is the same as with PTE level: the lock is embedded into struct page of table's page. We can't use mm->pmd_huge_pte to store pgtables for THP, since we don't take mm->page_table_lock anymore. Let's reuse page->lru of table's page for that. pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() returns true, if initialization is successful and false otherwise. Current implementation never fails, but assumption that constructor can fail will help to port it to -rt where spinlock_t is rather huge and cannot be embedded into struct page -- dynamic allocation is required.

Currently mm->pmd_huge_pte protected by page table lock. It will not work with split lock. We have to have per-pmd pmd_huge_pte for proper access serialization. For now, let's just introduce wrapper to access mm->pmd_huge_pte. Signed-off-by:

With split page table lock we can't know which lock we need to take before we find the relevant pmd. Let's move lock taking inside the function. Signed-off-by:
