This BUILD_BUG() triggers for LoongArch with their defconfig, so it
seems like they need to provide an implementation of pud_pfn()?

I actually tested this without hitting the issue (even though I didn't
mention it in the cover letter..). I re-kicked the build test, it turns
out my "make alldefconfig" on loongarch will generate a config with both
HUGETLB=n && THP=n, while arch/loongarch/configs/loongson3_defconfig has
THP=y (which I assume was the one above build used). I didn't further
check how "make alldefconfig" generated the config; a bit surprising that
it didn't fetch from there.
(and it also surprises me that this BUILD_BUG can trigger.. I used to try
triggering it elsewhere but failed..)
For loongarch the best thing is not compile in follow_huge_pud(), as it
doesn't support pud dax, neither does it support pud hugetlb. However
again that may require some more CONFIG_* options to declare the level one
arch supports on HUGETLB_PAGE. Here maybe the simplest (and it should also
cover all the rest archs on similar issues if ever possible to happen) is
we remove the BUILD_BUG() and explain why. It should be safe for loongarch
too here in this case to not defined it until properly supported.
Thanks,

I suspect it is weird compiler variations.. Maybe something is not
being inlined.

As the pud_leaf() == FALSE should result in the BUILD_BUG never being
called and the optimizer removing it.
Perhaps the issue is that the pud_leaf() is too far from the pud_pfn?

Good point, for some reason loongarch defined pud_leaf() without defining
pud_pfn(), which does look strange.
#define pud_leaf(pud) ((pud_val(pud) & _PAGE_HUGE) != 0)
But I noticed at least MIPS also does it.. Logically I think one arch
should define either none of both.

My understanding is follow_pud_mask() should completely get optimized and
follow_huge_pud() will be dropped in the compiler output if pud_leaf()==false.

Wow, this is definately an arch issue. You can't define pud_leaf() and
not have a pud_pfn(). It makes no sense at all..
I'd say the BUILD_BUG has done it's job and found an issue, fix it by
not defining pud_leaf? I don't see any calls to pud_leaf in loongarch
at least

As far as I can see it was added by commit 303be4b33562 ("LoongArch: mm:
Add p?d_leaf() definitions").
Not sure it was added for a good reason, and I'm not sure what was added
is correct because arch/loongarch/include/asm/pgtable-bits.h has:
#define _PAGE_HUGE_SHIFT 6 /* HUGE is a PMD bit */
So I'm not sure it is correct to use that bit for PUD, is it ?
Probably pud_leaf() should always return false.

That commit makes it sounds like the arch supports huge PUD's through
the hugepte mechanism - it says a LTP test failed so something
populated a huge PUD at least??
So maybe this?
#define pud_pfn pte_pfn

Could be, lots of arches repeat the bit layouts in each radix
level.. It is essentially why the hugepte trick of pretending every
level is a pte works.

Not sure, I more see it just like a copy/paste of commit 501b81046701
("mips: mm: add p?d_leaf() definitions").
The commit message says that the test failed because pmd_leaf() is
missing, it says nothing about PUD.
When looking where _PAGE_HUGE is used in loongarch, I have the
impression that it is exclusively used at PMD level.

AH fair enough, it is probably a C&P then

Yes, that sounds better too to me, however it means we may also risk other
archs that can fail another defconfig build.. and I worry I bring trouble
to multiple such cases. Fundamentally it's indeed my patch that broke
those builds, so I still sent the change and leave that for arch developers
to decide the best for the archs.
I think if wanted, we can add that BUILD_BUG() back when we're sure no arch
will break with it. So such changes from arch can still be proposed
alongside of removal of BUILD_BUG() (and I'd guess some other arch will
start to notice such build issue soon if existed.. so it still more or less
has similar effect of a reminder..).
Thanks,

But your change causes silent data corruption if the code path is
run.. I think we are overall better to wade through the compile time
bugs from linux-next. Honestly if there were alot then I'd think there
would be more complaints already.
Maybe it should just be a seperate step from this series.

Right, that'll be imho better to be done separate, as I think we'd better
consolidate the code.
One thing I don't worry is the warning would cause anything real to fail; I
don't yet expect any arch that will not define pud_pfn when it needs
it.. so it can mean all of the build errors may not cause real benefits as
of now. But I agree with you we'd better have it. I'll take a todo and
I'll try to add it back after all these fallouts. With my cross build
chains now it shouldn't be hard, just take some time to revisit each arch.
Thanks,
