[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH 0/9] Convert x86 pgd_lists to ptdescs
This continues the ptdesc conversions for x86[1]. This is a necessary step in preparation for the separate allocation of ptdescs from struct page. Once ptdescs are not wrappers, the pgd_list should be used to find our ptdesc, not page. In fact, after patch 4 we can successfully boot a 32-bit x86 kernel that separately allocates ptdescs. All of the patches are rather straightforward, I just kept them split up for ease of review. There are no intended functional changes as ptdescs are currently still wrappers around struct page. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20260211195233.368497-1-vishal.moola@xxxxxxxxx/ ---------------- I've compiled and booted both 64 and 32 bit on a kernel with separately allocated ptdescs. I ensured the codepaths were hit for all the changes except Xen. This applies cleanly to the tip bot. I'm thinking this can go through Dave's mm.
