Subject: [PATCH v3] arm64/mm: add fallback option to allocate virtually
Date: Thu,  1 Oct 2020 13:16:45 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1601582954.git.sudaraja@codeaurora.org> (raw)

V1: The initial patch used the approach to abort at the first instance of PMD_SIZE
allocation failure, unmaps all previously mapped sections using vmemmap_free
and maps the entire request with vmemmap_populate_basepages to allocate
virtually contiguous memory.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/9/10/66

V2: Allocates virtually contiguous memory only for sections that failed
PMD_SIZE allocation, and continues to allocate physically contiguous
memory for other sections.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/9/30/1489

V3: Addresses Anshuman's comment to allow fallback to altmap base pages
as well if and when required.
