Subject: [PATCH 3/4] mm: introduce bpf_mthp_ops struct ops
Date: Mon,  4 May 2026 00:50:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260503165024.1526680-4-vernon2gm@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260503165024.1526680-1-vernon2gm@gmail.com>

From: Vernon Yang <yanglincheng@kylinos.cn>

Introducing bpf_mthp_ops enables eBPF programs to register the
mthp_choose callback function via cgroup-ebpf.

Using cgroup-bpf to customize mTHP size for different scenarios,
automatically select different mTHP sizes for different cgroups,
let's focus on making them truly transparent.
