MEMPOOL_RESIZE(9) Memory Management in Linux MEMPOOL_RESIZE(9)NAMEmempool_resize - resize an existing memory pool
SYNOPSIS
int mempool_resize(mempool_t * pool, int new_min_nr, gfp_t gfp_mask);
ARGUMENTS
pool
pointer to the memory pool which was allocated via mempool_create.
new_min_nr
the new minimum number of elements guaranteed to be allocated for
this pool.
gfp_mask
the usual allocation bitmask.
DESCRIPTION
This function shrinks/grows the pool. In the case of growing, it cannot
be guaranteed that the pool will be grown to the new size immediately,
but new mempool_free calls will refill it.
Note, the caller must guarantee that no mempool_destroy is called while
this function is running. mempool_alloc & mempool_free might be called
(eg. from IRQ contexts) while this function executes.
