[RFC PATCH 04/57] mm/collapse: rename mthp_present_ptes to eligible_ptes

From: Kiryl Shutsemau <hidden>
Date: 2026-08-16 22:46:26
Also in: bpf, linux-kselftest, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - thp (transparent huge page), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" <kas@kernel.org>

Neither half of the name holds.  A bit is set only after the PTE has
passed every check the scan makes: uffd, lazyfree, anonymity and sharing
among them.  Presence is the first of those criteria, not the whole of
it.

mthp_collapse() then reads the bitmap starting at the PMD order, so the
bitmap is not specific to mTHP either.

Name the bitmap for what a set bit means: the scan accepted that PTE as
a collapse source.

No functional change.
