    LoongArch: Select THP_SWAP if HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE · ff4a2443
    Huacai Chen authored
    THP_SWAP has been proven to improve the swap throughput significantly on
    x86_64 system according to commit bd4c82c2 ("mm, THP, swap: delay
    splitting THP after swapped out"), on ARM64 system according to commit
    d0637c50 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") and on RISC-V system
    according to commit 87f81e66 ("riscv: enable THP_SWAP for RV64").
    
    Enable THP_SWAP for LoongArch, testing the micro-benchmark which is
    introduced by commit d0637c50 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64")
    shows below numbers on the Loongson-3A5000 board:
    
    swp out bandwidth w/o patch: 1815716 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests)
    swp out bandwidth w/  patch: 3410003 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests)
    
    Improved by 46.75%!
