Subject: [PATCH v2 8/9] dma-buf: heaps: cma: Turn the heap into a module
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 14:15:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260227-dma-buf-heaps-as-modules-v2-8-454aee7e06cc@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260227-dma-buf-heaps-as-modules-v2-0-454aee7e06cc@kernel.org>
Now that all the symbols used by the CMA heap are exported, turning the
CMA heap into a module becomes pretty easy: we just need to add the
usual MODULE_* macros, import the proper namespaces and change the
Kconfig symbol to a tristate.
This heap won't be able to unload though, since we're missing a lot of
infrastructure to make it safe.
