[PATCH 0/7] mm: reliable memory allocation with kvmalloc

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

 



This patchset introduces function kvmalloc and kvmalloc_node. These 
functions allow reliable allocation of objects of arbitrary size. They 
attempt to do allocation with kmalloc and if it fails, use vmalloc. Memory 
allocated with these functions should be freed with kvfree.

The patchset makes modification to device mapper to use these functions.
