1===================== 2CMA Debugfs Interface 3===================== 4 5The CMA debugfs interface is useful to retrieve basic information out of the 6different CMA areas and to test allocation/release in each of the areas. 7 8Each CMA area represents a directory under <debugfs>/cma/, represented by 9its CMA name like below: 10 11 <debugfs>/cma/<cma_name> 12 13The structure of the files created under that directory is as follows: 14 15 - [RO] base_pfn: The base PFN (Page Frame Number) of the CMA area. 16 This is the same as ranges/0/base_pfn. 17 - [RO] count: Amount of memory in the CMA area. 18 - [RO] order_per_bit: Order of pages represented by one bit. 19 - [RO] bitmap: The bitmap of allocated pages in the area. 20 This is the same as ranges/0/base_pfn. 21 - [RO] ranges/N/base_pfn: The base PFN of contiguous range N 22 in the CMA area. 23 - [RO] ranges/N/bitmap: The bit map of allocated pages in 24 range N in the CMA area. 25 - [WO] alloc: Allocate N pages from that CMA area. For example:: 26 27 echo 5 > <debugfs>/cma/<cma_name>/alloc 28 29would try to allocate 5 pages from the 'cma_name' area. 30 31 - [WO] free: Free N pages from that CMA area, similar to the above. 32
