Call set_pte_range() once per contiguous range of the folio instead of once per page. This batches the updates to mm counters and the rmap. With a will-it-scale.page_fault3 like app (change file write fault testing to read fault testing. Trying to upstream it to will-it-scale at [1]) got 15% performance gain on a 48C/96T Cascade Lake test box with 96 processes running against xfs. Perf data collected before/after the change: 18.73%--page_add_file_rmap | --11.60%--__mod_lruvec_page_state | |--7.40%--__mod_memcg_lruvec_state | | | --5.58%--cgroup_rstat_updated | --2.53%--__mod_lruvec_state | --1.48%--__mod_node_page_state 9.93%--page_add_file_rmap_range | --2.67%--__mod_lruvec_page_state | |--1.95%--__mod_memcg_lruvec_state | | | --1.57%--cgroup_rstat_updated | --0.61%--__mod_lruvec_state | --0.54%--__mod_node_page_state The running time of __mode_lruvec_page_state() is reduced about 9%.

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.
