Subject: + mm-huge_memory-move-filemap-management-into-the-file-split-helper.patch added to mm-new branch
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 17:45:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915004515.4EC901F000FF@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The patch titled
Subject: mm/huge_memory: move filemap management into the file split helper
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
mm-huge_memory-move-filemap-management-into-the-file-split-helper.patch
This patch will shortly appear at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-huge_memory-move-filemap-management-into-the-file-split-helper.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/huge_memory: move filemap management into the file split helper
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 01:14:52 +0800
Only file split needs the filemap and xarray handling and related
variables. Move them out of __folio_split() into the file helper so the
helper is self-contained, and simplify the parameters.
No functional change.
