[PATCH v2 54/69] mm/sparse-vmemmap: Drop @pgmap from vmemmap population APIs

From: Muchun Song <hidden>
Date: 2026-05-13 13:21:42
Also in: linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), loongarch, memory hot(un)plug, memory management, memory management - core, risc-v architecture, s390 architecture, the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), x86 mm · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Madhavan Srinivasan, Huacai Chen, David Hildenbrand, Oscar Salvador, Andrew Morton, Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Heiko Carstens, Vasily Gorbik, Alexander Gordeev, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Andy Lutomirski, Peter Zijlstra

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.
