Convert kfree(), kmem_cache_free() and ___cache_free() to resolve object addresses to struct slab, using folio as intermediate step where needed. Keep passing the result as struct page for now in preparation for mass conversion of internal functions. [ vbabka@suse.cz: Use folio as intermediate step when checking for large kmalloc pages, and when freeing them - rename free_nonslab_page() to free_large_kmalloc() that takes struct folio ] Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
