Subject: [PATCH RFC v4 01/22] mm: move vma_alloc_folio to page_alloc.c
Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2026 17:47:33 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a51fc0bcb09e50dcc467d0d336f324922742a0b0.1777223007.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1777223007.git.mst@redhat.com>
Move vma_alloc_folio_noprof() from an inline in gfp.h (for !NUMA)
and mempolicy.c (for NUMA) to page_alloc.c. The declaration is
moved outside the #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA block so both configs use
the same real function.
On NUMA, it calls the mempolicy allocation path as before.
On !NUMA, it calls folio_alloc_noprof() directly.
This prepares for a subsequent patch that will thread user_addr
through the allocator: having vma_alloc_folio in page_alloc.c
means user_addr can be passed to the internal allocation path
without changing public API signatures or duplicating plumbing
in both gfp.h and mempolicy.c.
No functional change.
