[$] Better automatic management of transparent huge pages

Huge pages can improve performance by increasing translation lookasidebuffer (TLB) utilization and reducing memory-management overhead.Transparent huge pages (THPs) are supposed to make huge-page usage,well, transparent, Nico Pache said at the beginning of his session in thememory-management track of the 2026 Linux Storage,Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit. That transparency hasnever worked as well as many would like; he has been working onimprovements to make it easier for applications to use huge pages on Linuxsystems. A following session, led by David Hildenbrand, was focused on howTHPs could be taken away from processes that are not using them fully.
