[PATCH 14/16] powerpc/book3s64/vmemmap: Switch radix to use a different vmemmap handling function

Sachin Sant sachinp at linux.ibm.com
Wed Jun 14 20:50:38 AEST 2023


> 1. First try to map things using PMD (2M)
> 2. With altmap if altmap cross-boundary check returns true, fall back to PAGE_SIZE
> 3. IF we can't allocate PMD_SIZE backing memory for vmemmap, fallback to PAGE_SIZE
> 
> On removing vmemmap mapping, check if every subsection that is using the vmemmap
> area is invalid. If found to be invalid, that implies we can safely free the
> vmemmap area. We don't use the PAGE_UNUSED pattern used by x86 because with 64K
> page size, we need to do the above check even at the PAGE_SIZE granularity.
