[PATCH v3 3/4] mm: Mark pages allocated through vmalloc

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

 



From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Use a bit in page_type to mark pages which have been allocated through
vmalloc.  This can be helpful when debugging or analysing crashdumps.
