[PATCH v4 6/6] virtio-balloon: Add support for providing unused page reports to host

From: Alexander Duyck
Date: Wed Aug 07 2019 - 18:42:25 EST


From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add support for the page reporting feature provided by virtio-balloon.
Reporting differs from the regular balloon functionality in that is is
much less durable than a standard memory balloon. Instead of creating a
list of pages that cannot be accessed the pages are only inaccessible
while they are being indicated to the virtio interface. Once the
interface has acknowledged them they are placed back into their respective
free lists and are once again accessible by the guest system.
