From: Alexandre Ghiti <alex@ghiti.fr>

On systems without CMA or (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) activated but
that support gigantic pages, boottime reserved gigantic pages can not be
freed at all. This patchs simply enables the possibility to hand back
those pages to memory allocator.

This commit then renames gigantic_page_supported and
ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE to make them more accurate. Indeed, those values
being false does not mean that the system cannot use gigantic pages: it
just means that runtime allocation of gigantic pages is not supported,
one can still allocate boottime gigantic pages if the architecture supports
it.

I think nr_pages should be an unsigned long in cma_release() and here
as well, but that is beyond the scope of this patch.  Most callers of
cma_release pass in a truncated unsigned long.  The truncation is unlikely
to cause any issues, just would be nice if types were consistent.  I have
a patch to do that as part of a contiguous allocation series that I will
get back to someday.

Yeah!  Those changes causes max_huge_pages to be modified while holding
hugetlb_lock as it should be.

Hi Andrew,

Can you consider this patch for inclusion in mm tree ? It lacks reviews 
from some
arch maintainers and has been reviewed by Mike Kravetz.
Tell me if I can do something to help,

Thanks,

I'm fine with the change, but wonder if this can be structured better in a way
which would remove the duplicated "if (MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) || CMA"
from all arches, as well as the duplicated
gigantic_page_runtime_allocation_supported()

something like:

- "select ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE" has no conditions, it just says the arch can
support them either at boottime or runtime (but runtime is usable only if other
conditions are met)
- gigantic_page_runtime_allocation_supported() is a function that returns true
if ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE && ((MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) || CMA) and
there's a single instance, not per-arch.
- code for freeing gigantic pages can probably still be conditional on
ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE

BTW I wanted also to do something about the "(MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) ||
CMA" ugliness itself, i.e. put the common parts behind some new kconfig
(COMPACTION_CORE ?) and expose it better to users, but I can take a stab on that
once the above part is settled.

Yeah, totally, we can factorize more than what I did. I prepared a v2 of 
this
patch that does exactly that: remove the triplet from arch specific code
and the duplicated gigantic_page_runtime_allocation_supported.

And the v2 gets rid of ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE totally since it
is not needed by arch to advertise the fact they support gigantic page,
actually, when selected, it really just means that an arch has the means
to allocate runtime gigantic page: it is equivalent to
(MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION) || CMA.

I send the v2 right away, if you can take a look Vlastimil, that would 
be great.
Note that Andrew already picked this patch in its tree, I'm not sure how to
proceed.


Thanks for your remarks !
