Hi everybody,
Thank you for your help! I am going to tell you more information.
my question is about memory fragmentation when I allocate and free a lot of small memory pieces in a kernel module. Can it do a memory fragmentation problem? Can I solve it using 'linux/list.h' API?
I think that is better to allocate a big piece of memory and get the nodes from this buffer with my own memory management functions; Is this correct?.
Thanks.
