[PATCH v7 04/10] arm64: hyperv: Add memory alloc/free functions for Hyper-V size pages

Michael Kelley mikelley at microsoft.com
Mon Aug 24 12:46:17 EDT 2020


Add ARM64-specific code to allocate memory with HV_HYP_PAGE_SIZE
size and alignment. These are for use when pages need to be shared
with Hyper-V. Separate functions are needed as the page size used
by Hyper-V may not be the same as the guest page size.

This code is built only when CONFIG_HYPERV is enabled.
