[PATCH v6 4/9] binder: store shrinker metadata under page->private

Carlos Llamas
2024-12-03T21:55:23Z

Instead of pre-allocating an entire array of struct binder_lru_page in
alloc->pages, install the shrinker metadata under page->private. This
ensures the memory is allocated and released as needed alongside pages.

By converting the alloc->pages[] into an array of struct page pointers,
we can access these pages directly and only reference the shrinker
metadata where it's being used (e.g. inside the shrinker's callback).

Rename struct binder_lru_page to struct binder_shrinker_mdata to better
reflect its purpose. Add convenience functions that wrap the allocation
and freeing of pages along with their shrinker metadata.

Note I've reworked this patch to avoid using page->lru and page->index
directly, as Matthew pointed out that these are being removed [1].
