[PATCH 3/3] mm: Introduce HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Steve Capper <steve.capper@xxxxxxx>

Different architectures have slightly different pre-requisites for supporting
Transparent Huge Pages. To simplify the layout of mm/Kconfig, a new option
HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is introduced and set in each architecture's
Kconfig file (at the moment x86, with ARM being set in a future patch).
