Linux kernel source tree

During migration special page table entries are installed for each page being migrated. These entries store the pfn and associated permissions of ptes mapping the page being migarted. Device-private pages use special swap pte entries to distinguish read-only vs. writeable pages which the migration code checks when creating migration entries. Normally this follows a fast path in migrate_vma_collect_pmd() which correctly copies the permissions of device-private pages over to migration entries when migrating pages back to the CPU. However the slow-path falls back to using try_to_migrate() which unconditionally creates read-only migration entries for device-private pages. This leads to unnecessary double faults on the CPU as the new pages are always mapped read-only even when they could be mapped writeable. Fix this by correctly copying device-private permissions in try_to_migrate_one().

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.
