[Andrew Morton]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm/rmap: use huge_ptep_get() in try_to_migrate_one()
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch.  Its filename is
     mm-rmap-use-huge_ptep_get-in-try_to_migrate_one.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-rmap-use-huge_ptep_get-in-try_to_migrate_one.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews.  Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.

The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next

If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: mm/rmap: use huge_ptep_get() in try_to_migrate_one()
Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2026 11:41:56 +0000

try_to_migrate_one() is used by folio migration to replace a present
mapping with a migration entry. For hugetlb folios, page_vma_mapped_walk()
returns the pte pointer to the hugetlb folio in pvmw.pte, but the code
reads the huge pte entry with ptep_get().

On arches which provide their own huge_ptep_get() to dereference a huge
pte pointer, accessing via ptep_get() would cause pte_pfn(), pte_present()
etc to misbehave.

It is not clear whether this has a trivially visible effect to userspace.

Use huge_ptep_get() to dereference a huge pte pointer.

Commit a98a2f0c8ce1 copied the bug from try_to_unmap_one into
try_to_migrate_one.
