Subject: [PATCH v2 10/20] hugetlb_vmemmap: Expose whether HVO is enabled to architecture code
Date: Sat, 3 Oct 2026 00:21:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261003002123.505555-11-jthoughton@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261003002123.505555-1-jthoughton@google.com>
Architectures that select CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_HUGETLB_VMEMMAP_RO_AFTER_INIT
may configure the system at boot depending on whether HVO is enabled,
e.g. arm64 requires all CPUs to support hardware access flag updates
only if HVO is enabled.
Add hugetlb_vmemmap_optimize_enabled() so that they can check. It is
declared before <asm/hugetlb.h> is included, so that it can also be used
from inline helpers there.
It only reflects the hugetlb_free_vmemmap= kernel command line parameter
(and the sysctl, when writable), not whether the architecture supports
HVO.
