Since the 'shmem_huge' can be set at runtime, that means file mapping with 'huge=always' option might miss the opportunity to allocate large folios if the 'shmem_huge' is changed from 'deny' from 'always' at runtime. So I'd like to drop the 'shmem_huge' validation and add some comments to indicate 'deny' and 'force' options are only for testing purpose and performence issue should not be a problem in the real production environments. That's just my 2 cents:)

No strange opinion, the previous version could cover the runtime deny/ force, but it is a little complicated as Matthew pointed, if no other comments, I will drop the shmem_huge check. > > That's just my 2 cents:)

The tmpfs could support large folio, but there is some configurable options(mount options and runtime deny/force) to enable/disable large folio allocation, so there is a performance issue when perform write without large folio, the issue is similar to commit 4e527d5841e2 ("iomap: fault in smaller chunks for non-large folio mappings"). Don't call mapping_set_large_folios() in __shmem_get_inode() when large folio is disabled to fix it.
