[PATCH v2 4/5] mm/vmalloc: Enable mapping of huge pages at pte level in vmalloc

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

 



On some architectures like powerpc, there are huge pages that
are mapped at pte level.

Enable it in vmalloc.

For that, architectures can provide arch_vmap_pte_supported_shift()
that returns the shift for pages to map at pte level.
