Subject: mm/shmem: inline shmem_is_huge() for disabled transparent hugepages
From: Sumanth Korikkar <sumanthk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1f737846aa3c45f07a06fa0d018b39e1afb8084a upstream.
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.
