compaction: why depends on HUGETLB_PAGE

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

 



Hi

I have found that memory compaction (CONFIG_COMPACTION)
is mainlined while looking at 2.6.35-rc5 source code.
I have a question regarding its dependency on HUGETLB_PAGE.

While trying to use CONFIG_COMPACTION on ARM architecture,
I found that I cannot enable CONFIG_COMPACTION because
it depends on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE which is not available
on ARM.

I disabled the dependency and was able to build it.
And it looks like working!

My question is: why does it depend on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE?
Is it wrong to use it on ARM by disabling CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE?
