In order to minimize code size (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y), compiler might choose to make a regular function call (out-of-line) for shmem_is_huge() instead of inlining it. When transparent hugepages are disabled (CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=n), it can cause compilation error. mm/shmem.c: In function ‘shmem_getattr’: ./include/linux/huge_mm.h:383:27: note: in expansion of macro ‘BUILD_BUG’ 383 | #define HPAGE_PMD_SIZE ({ BUILD_BUG(); 0; }) | ^~~~~~~~~ mm/shmem.c:1148:33: note: in expansion of macro ‘HPAGE_PMD_SIZE’ 1148 | stat->blksize = HPAGE_PMD_SIZE; To prevent the possible error, always inline shmem_is_huge() when transparent hugepages are disabled.
Do you know which commit introduced that? -- Cheers, David / dhildenb
