| |
Currently, both HugeTLB and sparse-vmemmap have their own logic to get or allocate the shared tail page for vmemmap optimization. The HugeTLB version handles runtime concurrency using cmpxchg, while the sparse-vmemmap version (used only at boot time) was simpler.
This patch unifies them into a single function in mm/sparse-vmemmap.c.
The new function of vmemmap_shared_tail_page() is introduced: it returns the shared page frame used to map the tail vmemmap pages of a compound page.
Furthermore, vmemmap_alloc_block_zero() is used as a safe allocation method for both situations:
1. It calls alloc_pages_node() (via vmemmap_alloc_block()) when slab is available.
2. It falls back to bootmem allocation during early boot, making the function suitable for use in both early boot (sparse-vmemmap init) and runtime (HugeTLB HVO) contexts.
This reduces code duplication and ensures consistent behavior.
