[RFC/PATCH v2 05/22] s390/mm: hugetlb pages within a gmap can not be freed

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

 



From: Dominik Dingel <dingel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Guests backed by huge pages could theoretically free unused pages via
the diagnose 10 instruction. We currently don't allow that, so we
don't have to refault it once it's needed again.
