2019-05-14T16:47:45+00:00

Now frozen slab can only be on the per cpu partial list.

slub: remove useless kmem_cache_debug() before remove_full()

2019-05-14T16:47:45+00:00

When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is not enabled, remove_full() is empty. While CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled, remove_full() can check s->flags by itself. So kmem_cache_debug() is useless and can be removed.

slub: use slab_list instead of lru

2019-05-14T16:47:44+00:00

Currently we use the page->lru list for maintaining lists of slabs. We have a list in the page structure (slab_list) that can be used for this purpose. Doing so makes the code cleaner since we are not overloading the lru list. Use the slab_list instead of the lru list for maintaining lists of slabs.

slub: add comments to endif pre-processor macros

2019-05-14T16:47:44+00:00

SLUB allocator makes heavy use of ifdef/endif pre-processor macros. The pairing of these statements is at times hard to follow e.g. if the pair are further than a screen apart or if there are nested pairs. We can reduce cognitive load by adding a comment to the endif statement of form #ifdef CONFIG_FOO ... #endif /* CONFIG_FOO */ Add comments to endif pre-processor macros if ifdef/endif pair is not immediately apparent.

mm/slub: Remove the ULONG_MAX stack trace hackery

2019-04-14T17:58:30+00:00

No architecture terminates the stack trace with ULONG_MAX anymore. Remove the cruft. While at it remove the pointless loop of clearing the stack array completely. It's sufficient to clear the last entry as the consumers break out on the first zeroed entry anyway.

mm: add support for kmem caches in DMA32 zone

2019-03-29T17:01:37+00:00

Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables", v6. This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2]. IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1 and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems. For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use __get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still use GFP_DMA). For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full page, so we considered 3 approaches: 1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches. 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory). 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3] This series is the most memory-efficient approach. stable@ note: We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19 and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue most likely starts from commit ad67f5a6545f ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA with ZONE_DMA32"), i.e. 4.15, and presumably breaks a number of Mediatek platforms (and maybe others?). [1] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-November/030876.html [2] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2018-December/031696.html [3] https://patchwork.codeaurora.org/patch/671639/ This patch (of 3): IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems. On arm64, this is done by passing GFP_DMA32 flag to memory allocation functions. For IOMMU L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full page using get_free_pages, so we considered 3 approaches: 1. This patch, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches. 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory). 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed. This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone using kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc. We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently no users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32). These calls will continue to trigger a warning, as we keep GFP_DMA32 in GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK. This implies that calls to kmem_cache_*alloc on a SLAB_CACHE_DMA32 kmem_cache must _not_ use GFP_DMA32 (it is anyway redundant and unnecessary).
