Patch series "hugetlb: speed up linear address scanning", v2. At unmap, fork and remap time hugetlb address ranges are linearly scanned. We can optimize these scans if the ranges are sparsely populated. Also, enable page table "Lazy copy" for hugetlb at fork. NOTE: Architectures not defining CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB need to add an arch specific version hugetlb_mask_last_page() to take advantage of sparse address scanning improvements. Baolin Wang added the routine for arm64. Other architectures which could be optimized are: ia64, mips, parisc, powerpc, s390, sh and sparc. This patch (of 4): HugeTLB address ranges are linearly scanned during fork, unmap and remap operations. If a non-present entry is encountered, the code currently continues to the next huge page aligned address. However, a non-present entry implies that the page table page for that entry is not present. Therefore, the linear scan can skip to the end of range mapped by the page table page. This can speed operations on large sparsely populated hugetlb mappings. Create a new routine hugetlb_mask_last_page() that will return an address mask. When the mask is ORed with an address, the result will be the address of the last huge page mapped by the associated page table page. Use this mask to update addresses in routines which linearly scan hugetlb address ranges when a non-present pte is encountered. hugetlb_mask_last_page is related to the implementation of huge_pte_offset as hugetlb_mask_last_page is called when huge_pte_offset returns NULL. This patch only provides a complete hugetlb_mask_last_page implementation when CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETLB is defined. Architectures which provide their own versions of huge_pte_offset can also provide their own version of hugetlb_mask_last_page.

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 Restructured Text 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.
