[PATCH v3] hugetlb: allow to free gigantic pages regardless of the configuration

Alexandre Ghiti alex at ghiti.fr
Fri Feb 15 06:31:00 AEDT 2019


On systems without CMA or (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) activated but
that support gigantic pages, boottime reserved gigantic pages can not be
freed at all. This patch simply enables the possibility to hand back
those pages to memory allocator.

This patch also renames:

- the triplet CMA or (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) into CONTIG_ALLOC,
and gets rid of all use of it in architecture specific code (and then
removes ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE config).
- gigantic_page_supported to make it more accurate: this value being false
does not mean that the system cannot use gigantic pages, it just means that
runtime allocation of gigantic pages is not supported, one can still
allocate boottime gigantic pages if the architecture supports it.

Signed-off-by: Alexandre Ghiti <alex at ghiti.fr>

Changes in v3 as suggested by Vlastimil Babka and Dave Hansen:
- config definition was wrong and is now in mm/Kconfig
- COMPACTION_CORE was renamed in CONTIG_ALLOC

Changes in v2 as suggested by Vlastimil Babka:
- Get rid of ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE
- Get rid of architecture specific gigantic_page_supported
- Factorize CMA or (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) into COMPACTION_CORE

Compiles on all arches and validated on riscv
