      percpu, module: implement reserved allocation and use it for module percpu variables · edcb4639
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
      	percpu variables
      
      This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk.  When
      setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
      of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
      through a separate reserved allocator.  This will be used primarily
      for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
      relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
      the relocatable range.
      
      If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
      isn't available for regular allocation.  If the first chunk also
      includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
      the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation.  The first one
      is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
      Although they share the page map, their different area map
      initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
      purposes.
      
      If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
      like any other allocation.

      percpu: add an indirection ptr for chunk page map access · 3e24aa58
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: allow sharing page map, no functional difference yet
      
      Make chunk->page access indirect by adding a pointer and renaming the
      actual array to page_ar.  This will be used by future changes.

      x86: make embedding percpu allocator return excessive free space · 9a4f8a87
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations
      
      Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size *
      smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first
      chunk.  However, if the static area is small, this can result in
      excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to
      PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction.
      
      This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's
      necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the
      leftover to the bootmem allocator.

      percpu: use negative for auto for pcpu_setup_first_chunk() arguments · cafe8816
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: argument semantic cleanup
      
      In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant
      auto-sizing.  It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0
      dynamic reserve size is valid.  Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
      from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
      malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.
      
      This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
      auto sizing.

      percpu: improve first chunk initial area map handling · 61ace7fa
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: no functional change
      
      When the first chunk is created, its initial area map is not allocated
      because kmalloc isn't online yet.  The map is allocated and
      initialized on the first allocation request on the chunk.  This works
      fine but the scattering of initialization logic between the init
      function and allocation path is a bit confusing.
      
      This patch makes the first chunk initialize and use minimal statically
      allocated map from pcpu_setpu_first_chunk().  The map resizing path
      still needs to handle this specially but it's more straight-forward
      and gives more latitude to the init path.  This will ease future
      changes.

      percpu: clean up percpu constants · 6a242909
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: cleaup
      
      Make the following cleanups.
      
      * There isn't much arch-specific about PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE.  Always
        define it whether arch overrides PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM or not.
      
      * blackfin overrides PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM to align static area size.  Do
        it by default.
      
      * percpu allocation sizes doesn't have much to do with the page size.
        Don't use PAGE_SHIFT in their definition.
