Subject: [patch 21/34] Xen-pv_ops: Allocate and free vmalloc areas
Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2007 16:30:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070313233033.228981227@goop.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070313233017.933601256@goop.org

[-- Attachment #1: alloc-vm-area.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2540 bytes --]

Allocate/destroy a 'vmalloc' VM area: alloc_vm_area and free_vm_area
The alloc function ensures that page tables are constructed for the
region of kernel virtual address space and mapped into init_mm.
