release_mem_region_adjustable(9) release a previously reserved memory region

SYNOPSIS

int release_mem_region_adjustable(struct resource * parent, resource_size_t start, resource_size_t size);

ARGUMENTS

parent

parent resource descriptor

start

resource start address

size

resource region size

DESCRIPTION

This interface is intended for memory hot-delete. The requested region is released from a currently busy memory resource. The requested region must either match exactly or fit into a single busy resource entry. In the latter case, the remaining resource is adjusted accordingly. Existing children of the busy memory resource must be immutable in the request.

NOTE

- Additional release conditions, such as overlapping region, can be supported after they are confirmed as valid cases. - When a busy memory resource gets split into two entries, the code assumes that all children remain in the lower address entry for simplicity. Enhance this logic when necessary.
