[PATCH v2 4/7] mm,memory_hotplug: Enforce struct page size to be multiple of PMD

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

 



When struct page's size is not multiple of PMD, these do not get
fully populated when adding sections, hence two sections will
intersect the same the PMD. This goes against the vmemmap-per-device
premise, so reject it if that is the case.
