Subject: [PATCH v4 8/9] ring-buffer: Remove ring_buffer_per_cpu::mapped
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 16:33:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260812153311.2328812-9-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260812153311.2328812-1-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.
