PageAnon() always look at head page to check PAGE_MAPPING_ANON and tail page's page->mapping has just a poisoned data since commit 1c290f64 ("mm: sanitize page->mapping for tail pages"). If makedumpfile checks page->mapping of a compound tail page to distinguish anonymous page as usual, it must fail in newer kernel. So it's necessary to export OFFSET(page.compound_head) to avoid checking compound tail pages. The problem is that unnecessary hugepages won't be removed from a dump file in kernels 4.5.x and later. This means that extra disk space would be consumed. It's a problem, but not critical. Signed-off-by: Atsushi Kumagai <ats-kumagai@wm.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.
