Subject: [PATCH mm-unstable v14 04/16] khugepaged: generalize hugepage_vma_revalidate for mTHP support
Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2026 12:28:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260122192841.128719-5-npache@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260122192841.128719-1-npache@redhat.com>
For khugepaged to support different mTHP orders, we must generalize this
to check if the PMD is not shared by another VMA and that the order is
enabled.
No functional change in this patch. Also correct a comment about the
functionality of the revalidation.
