rust: alloc: implement `KVmalloc` allocator

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

 



From: Danilo Krummrich <dakr@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8362c2608ba1be635ffa22a256dfcfe51c6238cc upstream.

Implement `Allocator` for `KVmalloc`, an `Allocator` that tries to
allocate memory with `kmalloc` first and, on failure, falls back to
`vmalloc`.

All memory allocations made with `KVmalloc` end up in
`kvrealloc_noprof()`; all frees in `kvfree()`.
