charset="US-ASCII"; x-default=true From: Baolin Wang If any order (m)THP is enabled we should allow running khugepaged to attempt scanning and collapsing mTHPs. In order for khugepaged to operate when only mTHP sizes are specified in sysfs, we must modify the predicate function that determines whether it ought to run to do so. This function is currently called hugepage_pmd_enabled(), this patch renames it to hugepage_enabled() and updates the logic to check to determine whether any valid orders may exist which would justify khugepaged running. We must also update collapse_allowable_orders() to check all orders if the vma is anonymous and the collapse is khugepaged. After this patch khugepaged mTHP collapse is fully enabled.
