Subject: [PATCH v4 22/23] KVM: s390: Enable 1M pages for gmap
Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2025 18:15:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251120171544.96841-23-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251120171544.96841-1-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>
While userspace is allowed to have pages of any size, the new gmap
would always use 4k pages to back the guest.
Enable 1M pages for gmap.
This allows 1M pages to be used to back a guest when userspace is using
1M pages for the corresponding addresses (e.g. THP or hugetlbfs).
Remove the limitation that disallowed having nested guests and
hugepages at the same time.
