Subject: [RFC PATCH 7/8] mm/vmalloc: Coalesce same page_shift mappings in vmap to avoid pgtable zigzag
Date: Wed,  8 Apr 2026 10:51:14 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408025115.27368-8-baohua@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260408025115.27368-1-baohua@kernel.org>

For vmap(), detect pages with the same page_shift and map them in
batches, avoiding the pgtable zigzag caused by per-page mapping.
