[PATCH v3 2/5] x86: hv: hv_init.c: Add functions to allocate/deallocate page for Hyper-V

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

 



Introduce two new functions, hv_alloc_hyperv_page() and
hv_free_hyperv_page(), to allocate/deallocate memory with the size and
alignment that Hyper-V expects as a page. Although currently they are
not used, they are ready to be used to allocate/deallocate memory on x86
when their ARM64 counterparts are implemented, keeping symmetry between
architectures with potentially different guest page sizes.
