[RFC PATCH 04/57] mm/collapse: rename mthp_present_ptes to eligible_ptes
From: Kiryl Shutsemau
Date: Sun Aug 16 2026 - 18:48:21 EST
From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" <kas@xxxxxxxxxx>
Neither half of the name holds. A bit is set only after the PTE has
passed every check the scan makes: uffd, lazyfree, anonymity and sharing
among them. Presence is the first of those criteria, not the whole of
it.
mthp_collapse() then reads the bitmap starting at the PMD order, so the
bitmap is not specific to mTHP either.
Name the bitmap for what a set bit means: the scan accepted that PTE as
a collapse source.
No functional change.
