Subject: [PATCH v4 00/19] mm: Refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage allocation
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 11:58:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260612035903.2468601-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
This series is split out from the earlier larger series "mm: Generalize
HVO for HugeTLB and device DAX" [1]. It collects the first 19 patches of
that series as a standalone set of fixes and preparatory cleanups around
bootmem HugeTLB handling, sparse initialization ordering, and related
vmemmap setup.
The first patches fix a few bugs found while reviewing the existing
code, including incorrect bootmem HVO handling, wrong vmemmap
registration arguments, a powerpc compound-vmemmap tracking bug, and
too-late initialization of gigantic bootmem HugeTLB struct pages.
The rest of the series reorders early memory initialization so the
relevant zone state is available before sparse and HugeTLB boot-time
setup runs, then simplifies the remaining bootmem gigantic hugepage
allocation path and removes code made obsolete by that rework.
At a high level:
- patches [1-4] fix boot-time and arch-specific bugs
- patches [5-12] reorder and simplify sparse/mm/hugetlb early init
- patches [13-19] refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage allocation and
remove obsolete helpers and state
Changes since v3:
- patches 2-4: add Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org to the applicable fixes
- patch 3: collect Reviewed-by from Ritesh Harjani
- patch 15: move pfn_to_zone() before hugetlb_vmemmap_init_early()
instead of using a forward declaration
- patches 15-17: collect Acked-by from Mike Rapoport where applicable
- patch 15: collect Acked-by from Usama Arif
- patch 18: clarify that the changelog also covers the early CMA
bootmem allocation fallback refactoring
- patch 19: initialize pgdat at declaration in
__init_deferred_page() and collect Reviewed-by from Mike Rapoport
