Subject: [RFC PATCH 02/16] mm: Define structs for allocation requests and store allocations
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 00:47:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723074854.1013941-3-jyescas@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723074854.1013941-1-jyescas@google.com>

This change introduces the next structs:

- struct req_alloc to keep the request info for the allocation.

- struct page_alloc to store a pointer to the page that was
allocated, the request info and the file that represents this
allocation. This file will be used to free the allocation when
it is not longer needed.
