Impact: new API to ring buffer This patch adds a new interface into the ring buffer that allows a page to be read from the ring buffer on a given CPU. For every page read, one must also be given to allow for a "swap" of the pages. rpage = ring_buffer_alloc_read_page(buffer); if (!rpage) goto err; ret = ring_buffer_read_page(buffer, &rpage, cpu, full); if (!ret) goto empty; process_page(rpage); ring_buffer_free_read_page(rpage); The caller of these functions must handle any waits that are needed to wait for new data. The ring_buffer_read_page will simply return 0 if there is no data, or if "full" is set and the writer is still on the current page.
