Subject: [PATCH 1/8] thp, x86: introduce HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2012 15:10:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1346937043-28208-2-git-send-email-gerald.schaefer@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1346937043-28208-1-git-send-email-gerald.schaefer@de.ibm.com>
Cleanup patch in preparation for transparent hugepage support on s390.
Adding new architectures to the TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE config option can
make the "depends" line rather ugly, like "depends on
(X86 || (S390 && 64BIT)) && MMU".
This patch adds a HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE instead. x86 already
has MMU "def_bool y", so the MMU check is superfluous there and
HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE can be selected in arch/x86/Kconfig.
