Subject: [PATCH v2 13/37] mm/hugetlb: cleanup hugetlb_folio_init_tail_vmemmap()
Date: Mon, 1 Sep 2025 17:03:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250901150359.867252-14-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250901150359.867252-1-david@redhat.com>
We can now safely iterate over all pages in a folio, so no need for the
pfn_to_page().
Also, as we already force the refcount in __init_single_page() to 1
through init_page_count(), we can just set the refcount to 0 and
avoid page_ref_freeze() + VM_BUG_ON. Likely, in the future, we would just
want to tell __init_single_page() to which value to initialize the
refcount.
Further, adjust the comments to highlight that we are dealing with an
open-coded prep_compound_page() variant, and add another comment explaining
why we really need the __init_single_page() only on the tail pages.
Note that the current code was likely problematic, but we never ran into
it: prep_compound_tail() would have been called with an offset that might
exceed a memory section, and prep_compound_tail() would have simply
added that offset to the page pointer -- which would not have done the
right thing on sparsemem without vmemmap.
