Name

release_mem_region_adjustable — release a previously reserved memory region

Synopsis

int release_mem_region_adjustable (struct resource * parent,
 resource_size_t start,
 resource_size_t size);
 

Arguments

struct resource * parent

parent resource descriptor

resource_size_t start

resource start address

resource_size_t size

resource region size

Description

This interface is intended for memory hot-delete. The requested region is released from a currently busy memory resource. The requested region must either match exactly or fit into a single busy resource entry. In the latter case, the remaining resource is adjusted accordingly. Existing children of the busy memory resource must be immutable in the request.

Note

- Additional release conditions, such as overlapping region, can be supported after they are confirmed as valid cases. - When a busy memory resource gets split into two entries, the code assumes that all children remain in the lower address entry for simplicity. Enhance this logic when necessary.
