[RFC 5/5] vmalloc: vfree_exec: free unused vm_struct

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

 



This is clearly not done yet, but it won't be too hard.

I would like to highlight that, we need both subtree_max_size and vm for
vmap_area in free_text tree. Therefore, we cannot keep the union in
vmam_area.
