Why cannot PMD_SIZE/PUD_SIZE be used on every platform instead ? What is the
need for using PUD_PAGE_SIZE/PMD_PAGE_SIZE ? Are they different on x86 ?
.

Hi, Pasha:
I checked the definitions of PMD_SIZE/PUD_SIZE and PUD_PAGE_SIZE/PMD_PAGE_SIZE in x86 architecture and their use outside the architecture(eg: in mm/, all used PMD_SIZE/PUD_SIZE), Would it be better to use a unified PMD_SIZE/PUD_SIZE here?

Thanks,
Tong.
