Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/8] mm: add boot-time reserved THP pageblock capacity
Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2026 15:21:50 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5f81d7460eb2382bbda25d40afae2609bebc1fae.1782538002.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1782538002.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com>

From: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com>

Add kernel boot parameters "thp_reserved_size" and "thp_reserved_nr" to
allow reserving a specified number of THP pageblocks during system boot.
These reserved pageblocks are marked as MIGRATE_RESERVED_THP.

Additionally, expose the "total_hpages", "free_hpages", and "used_hpages"
nodes in sysfs (/sys/kernel/mm/reserved_thp/) to allow userspace to
monitor the usage of the reserved capacity.
