[PATCH v4 07/11] mm/sparse-vmemmap: move vmemmap optimization helpers to a public header

From: Muchun Song <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-16 06:44:25
Also in: linux-doc, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: hugetlb subsystem, memory management, memory management - core, the rest · Maintainers: Muchun Song, Oscar Salvador, Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

The vmemmap optimization helpers currently live in mm/sparse.h,
which is an internal MM header. That works for MM code, but
prevents powerpc from using the same interfaces without including a
private header.

Move the declarations and inline helpers to
include/linux/vmemmap-optimization.h. This is a preparatory change for
powerpc, which has its own vmemmap optimization implementation and needs
to use the common vmemmap optimization interfaces from architecture code.

Signed-off-by: Muchun Song <redacted>
Acked-by: Qi Zheng <qi.zheng@linux.dev>
Acked-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org>
---
v4:
- Use the renamed VMEMMAP_OPTIMIZATION config in the public header
- Collect Acked-by from Mike Rapoport

v3:
- Update the subject and commit message to describe common vmemmap
  optimization helpers
- Collect Acked-by from Qi Zheng

v2:
- Fix missing header dependencies.
