      kexec, vmalloc: export additional vmalloc layer information · 13ba3fcb
      Atsushi Kumagai 提交于
      Now, vmap_area_list is exported as VMCOREINFO for makedumpfile to get
      the start address of vmalloc region (vmalloc_start).  The address which
      contains vmalloc_start value is represented as below:
      
        vmap_area_list.next - OFFSET(vmap_area.list) + OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start)
      
      However, both OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start) and OFFSET(vmap_area.list)
      aren't exported as VMCOREINFO.
      
      So this patch exports them externally with small cleanup.
      
      [akpm@linux-foundation.org: vmalloc.h should include list.h for list_head]

      mm, vmalloc: export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist · f1c4069e
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Although our intention is to unexport internal structure entirely, but
      there is one exception for kexec.  kexec dumps address of vmlist and
      makedumpfile uses this information.
      
      We are about to remove vmlist, then another way to retrieve information
      of vmalloc layer is needed for makedumpfile.  For this purpose, we
      export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist.

      mm, vmalloc: iterate vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist, in vmallocinfo() · d4033afd
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      This patch is a preparatory step for removing vmlist entirely.  For
      above purpose, we change iterating a vmap_list codes to iterating a
      vmap_area_list.  It is somewhat trivial change, but just one thing
      should be noticed.
      
      Using vmap_area_list in vmallocinfo() introduce ordering problem in SMP
      system.  In s_show(), we retrieve some values from vm_struct.
      vm_struct's values is not fully setup when va->vm is assigned.  Full
      setup is notified by removing VM_UNLIST flag without holding a lock.
      When we see that VM_UNLIST is removed, it is not ensured that vm_struct
      has proper values in view of other CPUs.  So we need smp_[rw]mb for
      ensuring that proper values is assigned when we see that VM_UNLIST is
      removed.
      
      Therefore, this patch not only change a iteration list, but also add a
      appropriate smp_[rw]mb to right places.

      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      This patch is a preparatory step for removing vmlist entirely.  For
      above purpose, we change iterating a vmap_list codes to iterating a
      vmap_area_list.  It is somewhat trivial change, but just one thing
      should be noticed.
      
      vmlist is lack of information about some areas in vmalloc address space.
      For example, vm_map_ram() allocate area in vmalloc address space, but it
      doesn't make a link with vmlist.  To provide full information about
      vmalloc address space is better idea, so we don't use va->vm and use
      vmap_area directly.  This makes get_vmalloc_info() more precise.

      mm, vmalloc: iterate vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist in vread/vwrite() · e81ce85f
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Now, when we hold a vmap_area_lock, va->vm can't be discarded.  So we can
      safely access to va->vm when iterating a vmap_area_list with holding a
      vmap_area_lock.  With this property, change iterating vmlist codes in
      vread/vwrite() to iterating vmap_area_list.
      
      There is a little difference relate to lock, because vmlist_lock is mutex,
      but, vmap_area_lock is spin_lock.  It may introduce a spinning overhead
      during vread/vwrite() is executing.  But, these are debug-oriented
      functions, so this overhead is not real problem for common case.

      mm, vmalloc: protect va->vm by vmap_area_lock · c69480ad
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Inserting and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time complexity, so
      it is inefficient.  Following patches will try to remove vmlist
      entirely.  This patch is preparing step for it.
      
      For removing vmlist, iterating vmlist codes should be changed to
      iterating a vmap_area_list.  Before implementing that, we should make
      sure that when we iterate a vmap_area_list, accessing to va->vm doesn't
      cause a race condition.  This patch ensure that when iterating a
      vmap_area_list, there is no race condition for accessing to vm_struct.

      Now get_vmalloc_info() is in fs/proc/mmu.c.  There is no reason that this
      code must be here and it's implementation needs vmlist_lock and it iterate
      a vmlist which may be internal data structure for vmalloc.
      
      It is preferable that vmlist_lock and vmlist is only used in vmalloc.c
      for maintainability. So move the code to vmalloc.c
