From 8e72033f2a489b6c98c4e3c7cc281b1afd6cb85c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerald Schaefer Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2012 16:30:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] thp: make MADV_HUGEPAGE check for mm->def_flags This adds a check to hugepage_madvise(), to refuse MADV_HUGEPAGE if VM_NOHUGEPAGE is set in mm->def_flags. On s390, the VM_NOHUGEPAGE flag will be set in mm->def_flags for kvm processes, to prevent any future thp mappings. In order to also prevent MADV_HUGEPAGE on such an mm, hugepage_madvise() should check mm->def_flags.
