The existing sub-allocator is limited to managing a single buffer object. This enhancement introduces shadow buffer functionality to support scenarios requiring dual buffer management. The changes include added shadow buffer object creation capability, Management for both primary and shadow buffers, and appropriate locking mechanisms for thread-safe operations. This enables more flexible buffer allocation strategies in scenarios where shadow buffering is required.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
