In order to minimize code size (CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y), compiler might choose to make a regular function call (out-of-line) for shmem_is_huge() instead of inlining it. When transparent hugepages are disabled (CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=n), it can cause compilation error. mm/shmem.c: In function `shmem_getattr': ./include/linux/huge_mm.h:383:27: note: in expansion of macro `BUILD_BUG' 383 | #define HPAGE_PMD_SIZE ({ BUILD_BUG(); 0; }) | ^~~~~~~~~ mm/shmem.c:1148:33: note: in expansion of macro `HPAGE_PMD_SIZE' 1148 | stat->blksize = HPAGE_PMD_SIZE; To prevent the possible error, always inline shmem_is_huge() when transparent hugepages are disabled.

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 reStructuredText 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.
