NAME

invalidate_mmap_range - invalidate the portion of all mmaps  

SYNOPSIS

"SYNOPSIS"

void invalidate_mmap_range (struct address_space * mapping, loff_t const holebegin, loff_t const holelen);  

ARGUMENTS

mapping
-- undescribed --
holebegin
byte in first page to invalidate, relative to the start of the underlying file. This will be rounded down to a PAGE_SIZE boundary. Note that this is different from vmtruncate, which must keep the partial page. In contrast, we must get rid of partial pages.
holelen
size of prospective hole in bytes. This will be rounded up to a PAGE_SIZE boundary. A holelen of zero truncates to the end of the file.
 

DESCRIPTION

in the specified address_space corresponding to the specified page range in the underlying file.
