Subject: [PATCH v4] mm: convert page type macros to enum
Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2024 13:29:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240607202954.1198180-1-stephen.s.brennan@oracle.com> (raw)
Changing PG_slab from a page flag to a page type in commit 46df8e73a4a3
("mm: free up PG_slab") in has the unintended consequence of removing
the PG_slab constant from kernel debuginfo. The commit does add the
value to the vmcoreinfo note, which allows debuggers to find the value
without hardcoding it. However it's most flexible to continue
representing the constant with an enum. To that end, convert the page
type fields into an enum. Debuggers will now be able to detect that
PG_slab's type has changed from enum pageflags to enum pagetype.
Fixes: 46df8e73a4a3 ("mm: free up PG_slab")

v3 -> v4: rename to enum pagetype, avoiding conflict in f2fs.h and matching
the name of enum pageflags
v2 -> v3: rebase on mm-unstable
v1 -> v2: include PAGE_TYPE_BASE and PAGE_MAPCOUNT_RESERVE
