[PATCH 1/2] rename alloc_pages_exact()

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

 



alloc_pages_exact() returns a virtual address.  But, alloc_pages() returns
a 'struct page *'.  That makes for very confused kernel hackers.

__get_free_pages(), on the other hand, returns virtual addresses.  That
makes alloc_pages_exact() a much closer match to __get_free_pages(), so
rename it to get_free_pages_exact().

Note that alloc_pages_exact()'s partner, free_pages_exact() already
matches free_pages(), so we do not have to touch the free side of things.
