From 66b2ca086210732954a7790d63d35542936fc664 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Ellerman mpe@ellerman.id.au Date: Thu, 11 May 2023 21:42:24 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64s/radix: Fix soft dirty tracking MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
It was reported that soft dirty tracking doesn't work when using the Radix MMU.
The tracking is supposed to work by clearing the soft dirty bit for a mapping and then write protecting the PTE. If/when the page is written to, a page fault occurs and the soft dirty bit is added back via pte_mkdirty(). For example in wp_page_reuse():
entry = maybe_mkwrite(pte_mkdirty(entry), vma); if (ptep_set_access_flags(vma, vmf->address, vmf->pte, entry, 1)) update_mmu_cache(vma, vmf->address, vmf->pte);
Unfortunately on radix _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY is being dropped by radix__ptep_set_access_flags(), called from ptep_set_access_flags(), meaning the soft dirty bit is not set even though the page has been written to.
Fix it by adding _PAGE_SOFTDIRTY to the set of bits that are able to be changed in radix__ptep_set_access_flags().
