Patch series "Clean up hugetlb boot command line processing", v4. Longpeng(Mike) reported a weird message from hugetlb command line processing and proposed a solution [1]. While the proposed patch does address the specific issue, there are other related issues in command line processing. As hugetlbfs evolved, updates to command line processing have been made to meet immediate needs and not necessarily in a coordinated manner. The result is that some processing is done in arch specific code, some is done in arch independent code and coordination is problematic. Semantics can vary between architectures. The patch series does the following: - Define arch specific arch_hugetlb_valid_size routine used to validate passed huge page sizes. - Move hugepagesz= command line parsing out of arch specific code and into an arch independent routine. - Clean up command line processing to follow desired semantics and document those semantics. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200305033014.1152-1-longpeng2@huawei.com This patch (of 3): The architecture independent routine hugetlb_default_setup sets up the default huge pages size. It has no way to verify if the passed value is valid, so it accepts it and attempts to validate at a later time. This requires undocumented cooperation between the arch specific and arch independent code. For architectures that support more than one huge page size, provide a routine arch_hugetlb_valid_size to validate a huge page size. hugetlb_default_setup can use this to validate passed values. arch_hugetlb_valid_size will also be used in a subsequent patch to move processing of the "hugepagesz=" in arch specific code to a common routine in arch independent code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
