Subject: [PATCH 32/49] mm/sparse-vmemmap: consolidate shared tail page allocation
Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2026 20:52:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260405125240.2558577-33-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260405125240.2558577-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com>
Currently, both HugeTLB and sparse-vmemmap have their own logic to get
or allocate the shared tail page for vmemmap optimization. The HugeTLB
version handles runtime concurrency using cmpxchg, while the
sparse-vmemmap version (used only at boot time) was simpler.
This patch unifies them into a single function in mm/sparse-vmemmap.c.
The new function of vmemmap_shared_tail_page() is introduced: it returns
the shared page frame used to map the tail vmemmap pages of a compound
page.
Furthermore, vmemmap_alloc_block_zero() is used as a safe allocation
method for both situations:
1. It calls alloc_pages_node() (via vmemmap_alloc_block()) when slab is
available.
2. It falls back to bootmem allocation during early boot, making the function
suitable for use in both early boot (sparse-vmemmap init) and runtime
(HugeTLB HVO) contexts.
This reduces code duplication and ensures consistent behavior.
