Subject: [PATCH 1/5] dt-bindings: reserved-memory: Add alloc-{bottom-up,top-down}
Date: Mon, 15 May 2023 12:12:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230510-dt-resv-bottom-up-v1-1-3bf68873dbed@gerhold.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230510-dt-resv-bottom-up-v1-0-3bf68873dbed@gerhold.net>

Right now the allocation behavior for dynamic reserved memory is
implementation-defined. On Linux it is dependent on the architecture.
This is usually fine if the address is completely arbitrary.

However, when using "alloc-ranges" it is helpful to allow controlling
this. That way you can make sure that the reservations are placed next
to other (static) allocations to keep the free memory contiguous if
possible.
