[PATCH -v3 2/8] lib, Make gen_pool memory allocator lock-less

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

 



Multiple users can allocate/free memory in the pool simultaneously
without lock.  This also makes gen_pool memory allocator can be used
to allocate/free memory in IRQ/NMI handler. This is useful for
hardware error handling, which needs to collect hardware error
information in IRQ/NMI handler.

To support lock-less allocate/free operation, lock-less bitmap
set/clear operations are implemented.
