(meaning: freeing the memmap only > with !CONFIG_SPARSEMEM) The "generic" pfn_valid() is only available with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM. With FLATMEM it's wild west: $ git grep -w "define pfn_valid" arch/*/include/asm/ | wc -l 22 This would actually mean that we still need arm64::pfn_valid() for the FLATMEM case. > IOW, avoiding having to adjust generic pfn_valid()/pfn_to_online_page() at > all. Am i missing something or should that be possible? We are back again to the question "should arm64 free its memmap". If the answer is no, we don't need arm64::pfn_valid() for SPARSEMEM at all. If the answer is yes, Anshuman's patch is way better than a custom pfn_valid(). -- Sincerely yours, Mike.
