| 3 | * |
| 4 | * Common interface definitions for making balloon pages movable by compaction. |
| 5 | * |
| 6 | * Despite being perfectly possible to perform ballooned pages migration, they |
| 7 | * make a special corner case to compaction scans because balloon pages are not |
| 8 | * enlisted at any LRU list like the other pages we do compact / migrate. |
| 9 | * |
| 10 | * As the page isolation scanning step a compaction thread does is a lockless |
| 11 | * procedure (from a page standpoint), it might bring some racy situations while |
| 12 | * performing balloon page compaction. In order to sort out these racy scenarios |
| 13 | * and safely perform balloon's page compaction and migration we must, always, |
| 14 | * ensure following these three simple rules: |
| 15 | * |
| 16 | * i. when updating a balloon's page ->mapping element, strictly do it under |
| 17 | * the following lock order, independently of the far superior |
| 18 | * locking scheme (lru_lock, balloon_lock): |
| 19 | * +-page_lock(page); |
| 20 | * +--spin_lock_irq(&b_dev_info->pages_lock); |
| 21 | * ... page->mapping updates here ... |
| 22 | * |
| 23 | * ii. before isolating or dequeueing a balloon page from the balloon device |
| 24 | * pages list, the page reference counter must be raised by one and the |
| 25 | * extra refcount must be dropped when the page is enqueued back into |
| 26 | * the balloon device page list, thus a balloon page keeps its reference |
| 27 | * counter raised only while it is under our special handling; |
| 28 | * |
| 29 | * iii. after the lockless scan step have selected a potential balloon page for |
| 30 | * isolation, re-test the page->mapping flags and the page ref counter |
| 31 | * under the proper page lock, to ensure isolating a valid balloon page |
| 32 | * (not yet isolated, nor under release procedure) |
| 33 | * |
| 34 | * The functions provided by this interface are placed to help on coping with |
| 35 | * the aforementioned balloon page corner case, as well as to ensure the simple |
| 36 | * set of exposed rules are satisfied while we are dealing with balloon pages |
| 37 | * compaction / migration. |
