Subject: [PATCH v2 03/19] mm/hugetlb: Introduce a new config HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2020 22:50:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201026145114.59424-4-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201026145114.59424-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com>

The purpose of introducing HUGETLB_PAGE_FREE_VMEMMAP is to configure
whether to enable the feature of freeing unused vmemmap associated
with HugeTLB pages. Now only support x86.
