Subject: [PATCH v5 14/28] mm: page_reporting: allow driver to set batch capacity
Date: Thu, 7 May 2026 18:23:06 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e90045272621711a7dc1ba9ce0f949dde5f7c2f4.1778192416.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1778192416.git.mst@redhat.com>

Add a capacity field to page_reporting_dev_info so drivers can
control the maximum number of pages per report batch. This is
useful when the driver needs to reserve virtqueue descriptors for
metadata (e.g., a bitmap buffer) alongside the page buffers.

The value is capped at PAGE_REPORTING_CAPACITY and rounded down
to a power of 2. If unset (0), defaults to PAGE_REPORTING_CAPACITY.

The virtio_balloon driver sets capacity to the reporting virtqueue
size, letting page_reporting adapt to whatever the device provides.
