Yes. Either that or define __HAVE_ARCH_PMDP_CLEAR_YOUNG_FLUSH without actually implementing the function to flush it away of the .text (is it perhaps flushed away at vmlinux link time?). That function never could be called by ARM. The BUG() is actually correct even in the original position, just now it triggers at build time because it doesn't know it can't be called. > > --- a/mm/pgtable-generic.c~thp-add-hpage_pmd_-definitions-for-config_transparent_hugepage-fix > +++ a/mm/pgtable-generic.c > @@ -70,10 +70,11 @@ int pmdp_clear_flush_young(struct vm_are > unsigned long address, pmd_t *pmdp) > { > int young; > -#ifndef CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE > +#ifdef CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE > + VM_BUG_ON(address & ~HPAGE_PMD_MASK); > +#else > BUG(); > #endif /* CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE */ > - VM_BUG_ON(address & ~HPAGE_PMD_MASK); > young = pmdp_test_and_clear_young(vma, address, pmdp); > if (young) > flush_tlb_range(vma, address, address + HPAGE_PMD_SIZE); > _ > -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
