Subject: [PATCH v8 01/10] arm64/mm: add pte_set_huge() and pte_clear_huge()
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 13:29:24 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917052933.188679-2-jiangwenxiaomi@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260917052933.188679-1-jiangwenxiaomi@gmail.com>
From: Wen Jiang <jiangwen6@xiaomi.com>
vmap installs PTE-level block mappings (PTE_CONT on arm64) by reusing
set_huge_pte_at() and huge_ptep_get_and_clear(), which are HugeTLB
helpers gated by CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE. This makes the feature silently
unavailable on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=n kernels and couples mm/vmalloc.c to
HugeTLB internals it does not otherwise need.
Add pte_set_huge()/pte_clear_huge() to arm64, joining the existing
pmd_set_huge()/pud_set_huge() family in mm/mmu.c. They build on
__set_ptes() and __get_and_clear_full_ptes() directly, so they do not
depend on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE.
There is no caller yet: mm/vmalloc.c is converted later in this series,
once the generic fallbacks are in place.
