Nowadays we track the status of physical page frames using `struct page` arranged in one or more arrays. And here exists one-to-one mapping between the physical page frame and the corresponding `struct page`. The hugetlbpage support is built on top of multiple page size support that is provided by most modern architectures. For example, x86 CPUs normally support 4K and 2M (1G if architecturally supported) page sizes. Every hugetlbpage has more than one `struct page`. The 2M hugetlbpage has 512 `struct page` and 1G hugetlbpage has 4096 `struct page`. But in the core of hugetlbpage only uses the first 4 `struct page` to store metadata associated with each hugetlbpage. The rest of the `struct page` are usually read the compound_head field which are all the same value. If we can free some struct page memory to buddy system so that We can save a lot of memory. When the system boot up, every 2M hugetlbpage has 512 `struct page` which is 8 pages(sizeof(struct page) * 512 / PAGE_SIZE). hugetlbpage struct page(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+ | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | | 1 | -------------> | 1 | | | | 2 | -------------> | 2 | | | | 3 | -------------> | 3 | | | | 4 | -------------> | 4 | | 2M | | 5 | -------------> | 5 | | | | 6 | -------------> | 6 | | | | 7 | -------------> | 7 | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ | | | | +-----------+ When a hugetlbpage is preallocated, we can change the mapping from above to bellow. hugetlbpage struct page(8 pages) page frame(8 pages) +-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+ | | | 0 | -------------> | 0 | | | | 1 | -------------> | 1 | | | | 2 | -------------> +-----------+ | | | 3 | -----------------^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | | 4 | -------------------+ | | | | 2M | | 5 | ---------------------+ | | | | | 6 | -----------------------+ | | | | 7 | -------------------------+ | | +-----------+ | | | | +-----------+ The mapping of the first page(index 0) and the second page(index 1) is unchanged. The remaining 6 pages are all mapped to the same page(index 1). So we only need 2 pages for vmemmap area and free 6 pages to the buddy system to save memory. Why we can do this? Because the content of the remaining 7 pages are usually same except the first page. When a hugetlbpage is freed to the buddy system, we should allocate 6 pages for vmemmap pages and restore the previous mapping relationship. If we uses the 1G hugetlbpage, we can save 4095 pages. This is a very substantial gain. On our server, run some SPDK applications which will use 300GB hugetlbpage. With this feature enabled, we can save 4797MB memory.
