[PATCH 05/21] shmem: export shmem_get_folio

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

 



Export shmem_get_folio as a slightly lower-level variant of
shmem_read_folio_gfp.  This will be useful for XFS xfile use cases
that want to pass SGP_NOALLOC or get a locked page, which the thin
shmem_read_folio_gfp wrapper can't provide.
