Subject: [PATCH v1 1/3] KVM: s390: Add module parameter to fence 2G hugepages
Date: Wed,  3 Jun 2026 17:47:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260603154758.234768-2-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260603154758.234768-1-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>

Add the hpage_2g module parameter to KVM to allow enabling or disabling
2G hugepages in KVM.

If hpage_2g is enabled but hpage is not enabled, print a message and
disable hpage_2g.

Opportunistically fix the comment for the hpage module parameter.
