The TLB flushing will cost quite some CPU cycles during the folio migration in some situations. For example, when migrate a folio of a process with multiple active threads that run on multiple CPUs. After batching the _unmap and _move in migrate_pages(), the TLB flushing can be batched easily with the existing TLB flush batching mechanism. This patch implements that. We use the following test case to test the patch. On a 2-socket Intel server, - Run pmbench memory accessing benchmark - Run `migratepages` to migrate pages of pmbench between node 0 and node 1 back and forth. With the patch, the TLB flushing IPI reduces 99.1% during the test and the number of pages migrated successfully per second increases 291.7%. Haoxin helped to test the patchset on an ARM64 server with 128 cores, 2 NUMA nodes. Test results show that the page migration performance increases up to 78%. NOTE: TLB flushing is batched only for normal folios, not for THP folios. Because the overhead of TLB flushing for THP folios is much lower than that for normal folios (about 1/512 on x86 platform).

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.
