Subject: way to allocate memory within a range ?
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2010 01:46:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <17cb70ee1002231646m508f6483mcb667d4e67d9807f@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I'd like to use kmem_cache() system, but need the memory taken from a
specific range if requested, outside the range otherwise.
I think about adding new zone and define new GFP flag to either select or
ignore the zone. Does it sound possible? Then I welcome any hint if you know
where to add the appropriated test in allocator, how to attach the
region to the new zone id).
Or slab/slub system is not designed for this, I should forget it and
opt for another system?
August.
