[RFC][PATCH 1/2] mm/vmalloc: Add IO mapping space reused interface.

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

 



For the IO mapping, for the same physical address space maybe
mapped more than one time, for example, in some SoCs:
0x20000000 ~ 0x20001000: are global control IO physical map,
and this range space will be used by many drivers.
And then if each driver will do the same ioremap operation, we
will waste to much malloc virtual spaces.

This patch add the IO mapping space reusing interface:
- find_vm_area_paddr: used to find the exsit vmalloc area using
  the IO physical address.
- vm_area_is_aready_to_free: before vfree the IO mapped areas
  using this to do the check that if this area is used by more
  than one consumer.
