Since 'commit 3e89e1c5ea84 ("hugetlb: make mm and fs code explicitly non-modular")'
bring in the mainline. mount hugetlbfs will result in the following issue.
mount: unknown filesystme type 'hugetlbfs'
because previous patch remove the module_alias_fs, when we mount the fs type,
the caller get_fs_type can not find the filesystem.
The patch just recover the module_alias_fs to identify the hugetlbfs.

hm, 3e89e1c5ea84 ("hugetlb: make mm and fs code explicitly
non-modular") was merged almost a year ago. And you are apparently the
first person to discover this regression. Can you think why that is?

The fact that the above has a typo makes me doubt it was real output
from "mount". In any case, that just means they didn't enable the
Kconfig option for it and hence it is not in /proc/filesystems as they
can easily verify.

Agreed -- I'd like to know just how this conclusion was reached. Maybe
they are running some out-of-tree patches to make it modular? Who
knows. It would be nice if we hear back, but I don't have high hopes.
In any case, 3e89e1c5ea84 commit log says:
Also note that MODULE_ALIAS is a no-op for non-modular code.
This isn't fundamentally hard to verify; the macros are:
#define MODULE_ALIAS_FS(NAME) MODULE_ALIAS("fs-" NAME)
#define MODULE_ALIAS(_alias) MODULE_INFO(alias, _alias)
#define MODULE_INFO(tag, info) __MODULE_INFO(tag, tag, info)
...and then finally:
#ifdef MODULE
#define __MODULE_INFO(tag, name, info) \
static const char __UNIQUE_ID(name)[] \
__used __attribute__((section(".modinfo"), unused, aligned(1))) \
= __stringify(tag) "=" info
#else /* !MODULE */
/* This struct is here for syntactic coherency, it is not used */
#define __MODULE_INFO(tag, name, info) \
struct __UNIQUE_ID(name) {}
#endif
...so a commit like this would have to explain how the patch does anything in
the !MODULE case, when the syntax comment above even indicates it is not used.
I remember this commit since there was patch order issue that the kbuild
robot uncovered (as listed in the commit log) in an earlier version of it.
So I can assure the patch poster that hugetlbfs was mounted for testing,
and they should revisit the logic that led to this no-op patch.

when I pull the upstream patch in 4.9-rc2. I find that I cannot mount the hugetlbfs.
but when I pull the upstream remain patch in the next day. I test again. it work well.
so I reply the mail right now, please ignore the patch. The detailed reason is not digged.
I am sorry for wasting your time.
Thanks you

when I pull the upstream patch in 4.9-rc2. I find that I cannot mount the hugetlbfs.
but when I pull the upstream remain patch in the next day. I test again. it work well.

I am sorry for wasting your time.
Thanks you
