Hi everyone.
I'm working on a kernel module that needs to maintain a large structure
in memory. As this structure could grow too big to be stored in memory,
it would be good to offload parts of it to the disk. What would be the
best way to do this? Could using a memory-mapped file help?

What if the code is a device driver?
