Hi, This patchset updates the hugetlb code to fix issues arising from contiguous pte hugepages (such as on arm64). Compared to v3, This version addresses a build failure on arm64 by including two cleanup patches. Other than the arm64 cleanups, the rest are generic code changes. The remaining arm64 support based on these patches will be posted separately. The patches are based on v4.12-rc2. Previous related postings can be found at [0], [1], [2], and [3]. The patches fall into three categories - * Patch 1-2 - arm64 cleanups required to greatly simplify changing huge_pte_offset() prototype in Patch 5. Catalin, Will - are you happy for these patches to go via mm? * Patches 3-4 address issues with gup * Patches 5-8 relate to passing a size argument to hugepage helpers to disambiguate the size of the referred page. These changes are required to enable arch code to properly handle swap entries for contiguous pte hugepages. The changes to huge_pte_offset() (patch 5) touch multiple architectures but I've managed to minimise these changes for the other affected functions - huge_pte_clear() and set_huge_pte_at(). These patches gate the enabling of contiguous hugepages support on arm64 which has been requested for systems using !4k page granule. Feedback welcome. Thanks, Punit v3 -> v4 * Reworked huge_pte_clear() and set_huge_swap_pte_at() to use #ifndef block pattern * Included two arm64 hugetlb patches to address build failure * Updated tags v2 -> v3 * Added gup fixes v1 -> v2 * switch huge_pte_offset() to use size instead of hstate for consistency with the rest of the api * Expand the series to address huge_pte_clear() and set_huge_pte_at() RFC -> v1 * Fixed a missing conversion of huge_pte_offset() prototype to add hstate parameter.
