[PATCH bpf-next 03/16] mm: Expose vmap_pages_range() to the rest of the kernel.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxx>

The next commit will introduce bpf_arena which is a sparsely populated shared
memory region between bpf program and user space process.
It will function similar to vmalloc()/vm_map_ram():
- get_vm_area()
- alloc_pages()
- vmap_pages_range()
