Subject: [PATCH 1/5] mm: use inline helper functions instead of ugly macros
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 09:56:04 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <dc94552605926f9ce84f9fc2ddfe5f7d1319e41c.1771897150.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1771897150.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com>
People have already complained that these *_clear_young_notify() related
macros are very ugly, so let's use inline helpers to make them more readable.
In addition, I cannot implement these inline helper functions in the
mmu_notifier.h file, because some arch-specific files will include the
mmu_notifier.h, which introduces header compilation dependencies and causes
build errors (e.g., arch/arm64/include/asm/tlbflush.h). Moreover, since
these functions are only used in the mm, implementing these inline helpers
in the mm/internal.h header seems reasonable.
