Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-add-softleaf_is_valid_pmd_entry-pmd_to_softleaf_folio.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2026 17:43:55 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260331004355.81524C4CEF7@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: add softleaf_is_valid_pmd_entry(), pmd_to_softleaf_folio()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-add-softleaf_is_valid_pmd_entry-pmd_to_softleaf_folio.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: add softleaf_is_valid_pmd_entry(), pmd_to_softleaf_folio()
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 18:07:28 +0000
Separate pmd_is_valid_softleaf() into separate components, then use the
pmd_is_valid_softleaf() predicate to implement pmd_to_softleaf_folio().
This returns the folio associated with a softleaf entry at PMD level. It
expects this to be valid for a PMD entry.
If CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is set, then assert on this being an invalid entry, and
either way return NULL in this case.
This lays the ground for further refactorings.
