[PATCH 4/6] [RFC] ashmem: Convert ashmem to use volatile ranges
From: John Stultz
Date: Tue Jun 12 2012 - 21:12:44 EST
Rework of my first pass attempt at getting ashmem to utilize
the volatile range code, now using the fallocate interface.
In this implementaiton GET_PIN_STATUS is unimplemented, due to
the fact that adding a ISVOLATILE check wasn't considered
terribly useful in earlier reviews. It would be trivial to
re-add that functionality, but I wanted to check w/ the
Android developers to see how often GET_PIN_STATUS is actually
used?
Similarly the ashmem PURGE_ALL_CACHES ioctl does not function,
as the volatile range purging is no longer directly under its
control.
