Subject: [PATCH v1 1/5] mm/vmalloc.c: Introduce vfree_bulk() interface
Date: Wed, 28 Apr 2021 15:44:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210428134422.1894-1-urezki@gmail.com> (raw)
Provide vfree_bulk() function and make it public. Some users
need to vfree vmalloc ptrs. as one set of batch. For example
there is a kvfree_rcu() API that keeps pointers in array.
As of now start with a simple implementation of vmalloc-bulk
interface that can be improved step by step in the future.
