[PATCH 28/49] mm/hugetlb: switch HugeTLB to use generic vmemmap optimization

Sun Apr 5 22:52:19 AEST 2026
Switch the HugeTLB vmemmap optimization to use the new infrastructure
introduced in the previous patches (specifically, the compound page
support in sparse-vmemmap).
Previously, optimizing bootmem HugeTLB pages required dedicated and
complex pre-initialization logic, such as hugetlb_vmemmap_init_early()
and vmemmap_populate_hvo(). This approach manually handled page mapping
and initialization at a very early stage.
This patch removes all those special-cased functions and simply calls
hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize_bootmem_page() directly from alloc_bootmem().
By explicitly setting the compound page order in the mem_section
(via section_set_order), the generic sparse-vmemmap initialization code
will now automatically handle the shared tail page mapping for these
bootmem pages.
This significantly simplifies the code, eliminates duplicate logic, and
seamlessly integrates bootmem vmemmap optimization with the generic
vmemmap optimization flow.
