Subject: [PATCH 17/31] kvm: teach kvm to map page teams as huge pages.
From: Andres Lagar-Cavilla <andreslc@...gle.com>
Include a small treatise on the locking rules around page teams.
Signed-off-by: Andres Lagar-Cavilla <andreslc@...gle.com>
Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@...gle.com>
---
Cc'ed to kvm@...r.kernel.org as an FYI: this patch is not expected to
go into the tree in the next few weeks, and depends upon a pageteam.h
not yet available outside this patchset. The context is a huge tmpfs
patchset which implements huge pagecache transparently on tmpfs,
using a team of small pages rather than one compound page:
please refer to linux-mm or linux-kernel for more context.
