[PATCH 4/4] mm/sparse-vmemmap: drop @pgmap from vmemmap population APIs

Muchun Song songmuchun at bytedance.com
Fri Oct 30 07:07:20 PDT 2026


The vmemmap population and memory hotplug paths no longer need @pgmap
to decide whether a mapping can be optimized. That state is now carried
in mem_section, and the architecture-specific population code can make
the remaining decisions internally.

Drop the @pgmap parameter from the vmemmap population helpers and the
related memory hotplug interfaces, and remove the remaining
dev_pagemap-specific coupling from those call chains.
