Like Christophe mentioned earlier on the other thread, we will convert all __PGTABLE_PXX_FOLDED checks as mm_pxx_folded() but looks like ARCH_HAS_[4 and 5]LEVEL_HACK macros will still be around. Will respin the series with all agreed upon changes first and probably we can then discuss pending issues from there. > > mm_alloc() returns with a 3-level page table by default on s390, so we > will run into issues in p4d_clear/populate_tests(), and also at the end > with p4d/pud_free() (double free). > > So, adding the mm_pud_folded() check to p4d_clear/populate_tests(), > and also adding mm_p4d/pud_folded() checks at the end before calling> p4d/pud_free(), would make it all work on s390.

Agreed, it seems better to do the check inside p4d/pud_free() functions. _______________________________________________ linux-snps-arc mailing list linux-snps-arc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-snps-arc
