Subject: [PATCH v4 bpf 1/4] vmalloc: replace VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP with VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2022 09:44:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220415164413.2727220-2-song@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220415164413.2727220-1-song@kernel.org>

Huge page backed vmalloc memory could benefit performance in many cases.
However, some users of vmalloc may not be ready to handle huge pages for
various reasons: hardware constraints, potential pages split, etc.
VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP was introduced to allow vmalloc users to opt-out huge
pages. However, it is not easy to track down all the users that require
the opt-out, as the allocation are passed different stacks and may cause
issues in different layers.

To address this issue, replace VM_NO_HUGE_VMAP with an opt-in flag,
VM_ALLOW_HUGE_VMAP, so that users that benefit from huge pages could ask
specificially.

Also, remove vmalloc_no_huge() and add opt-in helpers vmalloc_huge().

Fixes: fac54e2bfb5b ("x86/Kconfig: Select HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC with
                      HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP")
