[PATCH v3 1/6] mm/thp: add prep_transhuge_device_private_page()

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

 



Add a helper function to allow device drivers to create device private
transparent huge pages. This is intended to help support device private
THP migrations.
