[PATCH 0/5] android: binder: move allocator metadata and add shrinker

From: Sherry Yang
Date: Tue Aug 15 2017 - 20:27:23 EST


This patch set moves internal kernel data in the binder driver out of mmap
regions that is readable by user space. A shrinker is added to the driver
to dynamically manage the memory used by binder transactions and only free
pages when the system is under memory pressure. This patch set also adds
tests and refactoring in binder allocator.

android: binder: Refactor prev and next buffer into a helper function
android: binder: Add allocator selftest
android: binder: Move buffer out of area shared with user space
android: binder: Add global lru shrinker to binder
android: binder: Add shrinker tracepoints
