[PATCH] virtio-balloon: Avoid using the word 'report' when referring to free page hinting

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

 



From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It can be confusing to have multiple features within the same driver that
are using the same verbage. As such this patch is creating a union of
free_page_report_cmd_id with free_page_hint_cmd_id so that we can clean-up
the userspace code a bit in terms of readability while maintaining the
functionality of legacy code.
