Subject: [merged] mm-export-pageheadhuge.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2022 18:32:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220325013204.84BD5C340ED@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The patch titled
Subject: mm/hugetlb.c: export PageHeadHuge()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-export-pageheadhuge.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Subject: mm/hugetlb.c: export PageHeadHuge()
Export PageHeadHuge() - it's used by folio_test_hugetlb() and thence by
such as folio_file_page() and folio_contains(). Matthew suggested I use
the first of those instead of doing the same calculation manually - but I
can't call it from a module.
Kirill suggested rearranging things to put it in a header, but that
introduces header dependencies because of where constants are defined.
