idr: implement idr_preload[_end]() and idr_alloc()
The current idr interface is very cumbersome.
* For all allocations, two function calls - idr_pre_get() and
idr_get_new*() - should be made.
* idr_pre_get() doesn't guarantee that the following idr_get_new*()
will not fail from memory shortage. If idr_get_new*() returns
-EAGAIN, the caller is expected to retry pre_get and allocation.
* idr_get_new*() can't enforce upper limit. Upper limit can only be
enforced by allocating and then freeing if above limit.
* idr_layer buffer is unnecessarily per-idr. Each idr ends up keeping
around MAX_IDR_FREE idr_layers. The memory consumed per idr is
under two pages but it makes it difficult to make idr_layer larger.
This patch implements the following new set of allocation functions.
* idr_preload[_end]() - Similar to radix preload but doesn't fail.
The first idr_alloc() inside preload section can be treated as if it
were called with @gfp_mask used for idr_preload().
* idr_alloc() - Allocate an ID w/ lower and upper limits. Takes
@gfp_flags and can be used w/o preloading. When used inside
preloaded section, the allocation mask of preloading can be assumed.
If idr_alloc() can be called from a context which allows sufficiently
relaxed @gfp_mask, it can be used by itself. If, for example,
idr_alloc() is called inside spinlock protected region, preloading can
be used like the following.
idr_preload(GFP_KERNEL);
spin_lock(lock);
id = idr_alloc(idr, ptr, start, end, GFP_NOWAIT);
spin_unlock(lock);
idr_preload_end();
if (id < 0)
error;
which is much simpler and less error-prone than idr_pre_get and
idr_get_new*() loop.
The new interface uses per-pcu idr_layer buffer and thus the number of
idr's in the system doesn't affect the amount of memory used for
preloading.
idr_layer_alloc() is introduced to handle idr_layer allocations for
both old and new ID allocation paths. This is a bit hairy now but the
new interface is expected to replace the old and the internal
implementation eventually will become simpler.
