Subject: [PATCH 1/8] dma-heap: Add proper kref handling on dma-buf heaps
Date: Tue, 5 May 2026 16:05:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505140516.1372388-2-ketil.johnsen@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260505140516.1372388-1-ketil.johnsen@arm.com>
From: John Stultz <jstultz@google.com>
Add proper reference counting on the dma_heap structure. While
existing heaps are built-in, we may eventually have heaps loaded
from modules, and we'll need to be able to properly handle the
references to the heaps
