| parent | thp: allocate memory in khugepaged outside of mmap_sem write mode (diff) | |
thp: transparent hugepage config choice
Allow to choose between the always|madvise default for page faults and
khugepaged at config time. madvise guarantees zero risk of higher memory
footprint for applications (applications using madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE)
won't risk to use any more memory by backing their virtual regions with
hugepages).
Initially set the default to N and don't depend on EMBEDDED.
