[PATCH 18/18] mm, netmem: remove the page pool members in struct page

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that all the users of the page pool members in struct page have been
gone, the members can be removed from struct page.

However, since struct netmem_desc might still use the space in struct
page, the size of struct netmem_desc should be checked, until struct
netmem_desc has its own instance from slab, to avoid conficting with
other members within struct page.

Remove the page pool members in struct page and add a static checker for
the size.
