Subject: [PATCH v2 03/20] hugetlb_vmemmap: Always flush TLB if needed upon PTE remapping
Date: Sat, 3 Oct 2026 00:21:06 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261003002123.505555-4-jthoughton@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261003002123.505555-1-jthoughton@google.com>
vmemmap_remap_range() can potentially leave the vmemmap in a partially
optimized state. In this case, a TLB flush should be done if the walk
caller asked for it, even if the optimization was not fully applied.
A follow-up patch will more completely deal with partially-optimized
folios.
