[PATCH 2/6] efi: Let the user of efi_memmap_alloc() know the type of allocation performed

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

 



From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@xxxxxxxxx>

efi_memmap_alloc(), as the name suggests, allocates memory for a new efi
memory map and it does so depending on whether mm_init() has already
been invoked or not. As we have introduced efi_memmap_free() to free the
memory allocated by efi_memmap_alloc(), modify efi_memmap_alloc() to
include "efi_memmap_type", so that the caller of efi_memmap_alloc() will
know the type of allocation performed and later use the same to free the
memory should remap fail. Without "efi_memmap_type" there would be no
way for efi_memmap_free() to know the type of allocation performed by
efi_memmap_alloc().

Also, "efi_memmap_type" will make sure that efi_memmap_alloc() and
efi_memmap_free() are always binded properly i.e. a user could use
efi_memmap_alloc() before slab_is_available() and use efi_memmap_free()
on the same memory but after slab_is_available(). Without
"efi_memmap_type", efi_memmap_free() would be using wrong free variant.
With "efi_memmap_type", we make this relationship between
efi_memmap_alloc() and efi_memmap_free() explicit to the user.
