Subject: [PATCH 3/6] io_uring/rsrc: use kvfree() for the imu cache
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 07:51:40 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421135626.581917-4-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260421135626.581917-1-axboe@kernel.dk>
Currently anything that requires kvmalloc_flex() for allocations will
not get re-cached, and hence the cache freeing path is correct in that
it always uses kfree() to free the allocated memory. But this seems a
bit fragile as it's something that could get mix should that situation
change, so switch io_free_imu() and io_alloc_cache_free() to use kvfree
as the desctructor.
