Huang Ying b735a3e81b arm64, mm: avoid always making PTE dirty in pte_mkwrite() 
[ Upstream commit 143937ca51cc6ae2fccc61a1cb916abb24cd34f5 ]

Current pte_mkwrite_novma() makes PTE dirty unconditionally.  This may
mark some pages that are never written dirty wrongly.  For example,
do_swap_page() may map the exclusive pages with writable and clean PTEs
if the VMA is writable and the page fault is for read access.
However, current pte_mkwrite_novma() implementation always dirties the
PTE.  This may cause unnecessary disk writing if the pages are
never written before being reclaimed.

So, change pte_mkwrite_novma() to clear the PTE_RDONLY bit only if the
PTE_DIRTY bit is set to make it possible to make the PTE writable and
clean.

The current behavior was introduced in commit 73e86cb03c ("arm64:
Move PTE_RDONLY bit handling out of set_pte_at()").  Before that,
pte_mkwrite() only sets the PTE_WRITE bit, while set_pte_at() only
clears the PTE_RDONLY bit if both the PTE_WRITE and the PTE_DIRTY bits
are set.

To test the performance impact of the patch, on an arm64 server
machine, run 16 redis-server processes on socket 1 and 16
memtier_benchmark processes on socket 0 with mostly get
transactions (that is, redis-server will mostly read memory only).
The memory footprint of redis-server is larger than the available
memory, so swap out/in will be triggered.  Test results show that the
patch can avoid most swapping out because the pages are mostly clean.
And the benchmark throughput improves ~23.9% in the test.

README 

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.
