Subject: [PATCH v4 03/13] mm/khugepaged: rename mthp_present_ptes bitmap to eligible_ptes
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 11:06:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928100630.21870-4-kirill@shutemov.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928100630.21870-1-kirill@shutemov.name>
From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" <kas@kernel.org>
The name says less than the bit means. A set bit means not only that the
PTE is present, but also that it passed the other checks: uffd,
lazyfree, anonymity, sharing. The PTE can be considered a collapse
source.
mthp_collapse() then reads the bitmap starting at the PMD order, so the
bitmap is not specific to mTHP either.
Name it for what a set bit means, and update the comments that named it.
No functional change.
