    x86: add gbpages switches · 00d1c5e0
    Ingo Molnar 提交于
    These new controls toggle experimental support for a new CPU feature,
    the straightforward extension of largepages from the pmd level to the
    pud level, which allows 1GB (kernel) TLBs instead of 2MB TLBs.
    
    Turn it off by default, as this code has not been tested well enough yet.
    
    Use the CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES=y .config option or gbpages on the
    boot line can be used to enable it. If enabled in the .config then
    nogbpages boot option disables it.
