From 9f993ac3f708b661207ed7de521f245586217a68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: FUJITA Tomonori Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 19:46:17 +0900 Subject: bootmem: Add free_bootmem_late() Add a new function for freeing bootmem after the bootmem allocator has been released and the unreserved pages given to the page allocator. This allows us to reserve bootmem and then release it if we later discover it was not needed. ( This new API will be used by the swiotlb code to recover a significant amount of RAM (64MB). ) Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori Acked-by: Pekka Enberg Cc: chrisw@sous-sol.org Cc: dwmw2@infradead.org Cc: joerg.roedel@amd.com Cc: muli@il.ibm.com Cc: hannes@cmpxchg.org Cc: tj@kernel.org Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: Linus Torvalds LKML-Reference: <1257849980-22640-7-git-send-email-fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- include/linux/bootmem.h | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'include/linux/bootmem.h') diff --git a/include/linux/bootmem.h b/include/linux/bootmem.h index dd97fb8408a8..b10ec49ee2dd 100644 --- a/include/linux/bootmem.h +++ b/include/linux/bootmem.h @@ -53,6 +53,7 @@ extern void free_bootmem_node(pg_data_t *pgdat, unsigned long addr, unsigned long size); extern void free_bootmem(unsigned long addr, unsigned long size); +extern void free_bootmem_late(unsigned long addr, unsigned long size); /* * Flags for reserve_bootmem (also if CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, -- cgit v1.2.3
