Subject: [PATCH 6/6] ring-buffer: Remove ring_buffer_per_cpu::mapped
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 22:13:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806211306.3704194-7-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806211306.3704194-1-vdonnefort@google.com>
ring_buffer_per_cpu::mapped tracks if a ring-buffer is either mapped by
user-space or if it is a persistent buffer. We already have user_mapped
for the former and ring_meta for the latter. Get rid of mapped and
instead create rb_is_static(). A static ring-buffer cannot be resized,
swapped or have its pages extracted.
