Subject: [PATCH 1/1] mm/huge_memory: disallow raw PMD mappings of the huge zero page
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 20:10:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260917121010.60966-1-lance.yang@linux.dev> (raw)

vm_mixed_zeropage_allowed() validates zeropage insertion into
VM_MIXEDMAP VMAs. No in-tree user needs to insert the huge zero page
through vmf_insert_pfn_pmd().

Return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() is asked to map it.
