kmalloc_index is a long series of comparisons.  The attempt to replace
kmalloc_index with something more efficient like ilog2 failed due to compiler
issues with constant folding on gcc 3.3 / powerpc.

kmalloc_index()'es long list of comparisons works fine for constant folding
since all the comparisons are optimized away.  However, SLUB also uses
kmalloc_index to determine the slab to use for the __kmalloc_xxx functions.
This leads to a large set of comparisons in get_slab().

The patch here allows to get rid of that list of comparisons in get_slab():

1. If the requested size is larger than 192 then we can simply use
   fls to determine the slab index since all larger slabs are
   of the power of two type.

2. If the requested size is smaller then we cannot use fls since there
   are non power of two caches to be considered. However, the sizes are
   in a managable range. So we divide the size by 8. Then we have only
   24 possibilities left and then we simply look up the kmalloc index
   in a table.

Code size of slub.o decreases by more than 200 bytes through this patch.

A kernel convention for many allocators is that if __GFP_ZERO is passed to an
allocator then the allocated memory should be zeroed.

This is currently not supported by the slab allocators.  The inconsistency
makes it difficult to implement in derived allocators such as in the uncached
allocator and the pool allocators.

In addition the support zeroed allocations in the slab allocators does not
have a consistent API.  There are no zeroing allocator functions for NUMA node
placement (kmalloc_node, kmem_cache_alloc_node).  The zeroing allocations are
only provided for default allocs (kzalloc, kmem_cache_zalloc_node).
__GFP_ZERO will make zeroing universally available and does not require any
addititional functions.

So add the necessary logic to all slab allocators to support __GFP_ZERO.

The code is added to the hot path.  The gfp flags are on the stack and so the
cacheline is readily available for checking if we want a zeroed object.

Zeroing while allocating is now a frequent operation and we seem to be
gradually approaching a 1-1 parity between zeroing and not zeroing allocs.
The current tree has 3476 uses of kmalloc vs 2731 uses of kzalloc.

Currently SLUB has no provision to deal with too high page orders that may
be specified on the kernel boot line.  If an order higher than 6 (on a 4k
platform) is generated then we will BUG() because slabs get more than 65535
objects.

Add some logic that decreases order for slabs that have too many objects.
This allow booting with slab sizes up to MAX_ORDER.

For example

	slub_min_order=10

will boot with a default slab size of 4M and reduce slab sizes for small
object sizes to lower orders if the number of objects becomes too big.
Large slab sizes like that allow a concentration of objects of the same
slab cache under as few as possible TLB entries and thus potentially
reduces TLB pressure.

When we are out of memory of a suitable size we enter reclaim.  The current
reclaim algorithm targets pages in LRU order, which is great for fairness at
order-0 but highly unsuitable if you desire pages at higher orders.  To get
pages of higher order we must shoot down a very high proportion of memory;
>95% in a lot of cases.

This patch set adds a lumpy reclaim algorithm to the allocator.  It targets
groups of pages at the specified order anchored at the end of the active and
inactive lists.  This encourages groups of pages at the requested orders to
move from active to inactive, and active to free lists.  This behaviour is
only triggered out of direct reclaim when higher order pages have been
requested.

This patch set is particularly effective when utilised with an
anti-fragmentation scheme which groups pages of similar reclaimability
together.

This patch set is based on Peter Zijlstra's lumpy reclaim V2 patch which forms
the foundation.  Credit to Mel Gorman for sanitity checking.

Mel said:

  The patches have an application with hugepage pool resizing.

  When lumpy-reclaim is used used with ZONE_MOVABLE, the hugepages pool can
  be resized with greater reliability.  Testing on a desktop machine with 2GB
  of RAM showed that growing the hugepage pool with ZONE_MOVABLE on it's own
  was very slow as the success rate was quite low.  Without lumpy-reclaim,
  each attempt to grow the pool by 100 pages would yield 1 or 2 hugepages.
  With lumpy-reclaim, getting 40 to 70 hugepages on each attempt was typical.

This patch adds a new parameter for sizing ZONE_MOVABLE called
movablecore=.  While kernelcore= is used to specify the minimum amount of
memory that must be available for all allocation types, movablecore= is
used to specify the minimum amount of memory that is used for migratable
allocations.  The amount of memory used for migratable allocations
determines how large the huge page pool could be dynamically resized to at
runtime for example.

How movablecore is actually handled is that the total number of pages in
the system is calculated and a value is set for kernelcore that is

kernelcore == totalpages - movablecore

Both kernelcore= and movablecore= can be safely specified at the same time.

From: Yasunori Goto <y-goto@jp.fujitsu.com>

  When "kernelcore" boot option is specified, kernel can't boot up on ia64
  because of an infinite loop.  In addition, the parsing code can be handled
  in an architecture-independent manner.

  This patch uses common code to handle the kernelcore= parameter.  It is
  only available to architectures that support arch-independent zone-sizing
  (i.e.  define CONFIG_ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP).  Other architectures will
  ignore the boot parameter.

Huge pages are not movable so are not allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE.  However,
as ZONE_MOVABLE will always have pages that can be migrated or reclaimed, it
can be used to satisfy hugepage allocations even when the system has been
running a long time.  This allows an administrator to resize the hugepage pool
at runtime depending on the size of ZONE_MOVABLE.

This patch adds a new sysctl called hugepages_treat_as_movable.  When a
non-zero value is written to it, future allocations for the huge page pool
will use ZONE_MOVABLE.  Despite huge pages being non-movable, we do not
introduce additional external fragmentation of note as huge pages are always
the largest contiguous block we care about.

The following 8 patches against 2.6.20-mm2 create a zone called ZONE_MOVABLE
that is only usable by allocations that specify both __GFP_HIGHMEM and
__GFP_MOVABLE.  This has the effect of keeping all non-movable pages within a
single memory partition while allowing movable allocations to be satisfied
from either partition.  The patches may be applied with the list-based
anti-fragmentation patches that groups pages together based on mobility.

The size of the zone is determined by a kernelcore= parameter specified at
boot-time.  This specifies how much memory is usable by non-movable
allocations and the remainder is used for ZONE_MOVABLE.  Any range of pages
within ZONE_MOVABLE can be released by migrating the pages or by reclaiming.

When selecting a zone to take pages from for ZONE_MOVABLE, there are two
things to consider.  First, only memory from the highest populated zone is
used for ZONE_MOVABLE.  On the x86, this is probably going to be ZONE_HIGHMEM
but it would be ZONE_DMA on ppc64 or possibly ZONE_DMA32 on x86_64.  Second,
the amount of memory usable by the kernel will be spread evenly throughout
NUMA nodes where possible.  If the nodes are not of equal size, the amount of
memory usable by the kernel on some nodes may be greater than others.

By default, the zone is not as useful for hugetlb allocations because they are
pinned and non-migratable (currently at least).  A sysctl is provided that
allows huge pages to be allocated from that zone.  This means that the huge
page pool can be resized to the size of ZONE_MOVABLE during the lifetime of
the system assuming that pages are not mlocked.  Despite huge pages being
non-movable, we do not introduce additional external fragmentation of note as
huge pages are always the largest contiguous block we care about.

Credit goes to Andy Whitcroft for catching a large variety of problems during
review of the patches.

This patch creates an additional zone, ZONE_MOVABLE.  This zone is only usable
by allocations which specify both __GFP_HIGHMEM and __GFP_MOVABLE.  Hot-added
memory continues to be placed in their existing destination as there is no
mechanism to redirect them to a specific zone.

It is often known at allocation time whether a page may be migrated or not.
This patch adds a flag called __GFP_MOVABLE and a new mask called
GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE.  Allocations using the __GFP_MOVABLE can be either migrated
using the page migration mechanism or reclaimed by syncing with backing
storage and discarding.

An API function very similar to alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is added for
__GFP_MOVABLE allocations called alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable().  The
flags used by alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() are not changed because it would
change the semantics of an existing API.  After this patch is applied there
are no in-kernel users of alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() so it probably should
be marked deprecated if this patch is merged.

Note that this patch includes a minor cleanup to the use of __GFP_ZERO in
shmem.c to keep all flag modifications to inode->mapping in the
shmem_dir_alloc() helper function.  This clean-up suggestion is courtesy of
Hugh Dickens.

Additional credit goes to Christoph Lameter and Linus Torvalds for shaping the
concept.  Credit to Hugh Dickens for catching issues with shmem swap vector

do_generic_mapping_read currently samples the i_size at the start and doesn't
do so again unless it needs to call ->readpage to load a page.  After
->readpage it has to re-sample i_size as a truncate may have caused that page
to be filled with zeros, and the read() call should not see these.

However there are other activities that might cause ->readpage to be called on
a page between the time that do_generic_mapping_read samples i_size and when
it finds that it has an uptodate page.  These include at least read-ahead and
possibly another thread performing a read.

So do_generic_mapping_read must sample i_size *after* it has an uptodate page.
 Thus the current sampling at the start and after a read can be replaced with
a sampling before the copy-out.

The same change applied to __generic_file_splice_read.

Note that this fixes any race with truncate_complete_page, but does not fix a
possible race with truncate_partial_page.  If a partial truncate happens after
do_generic_mapping_read samples i_size and before the copy_out, the nuls that
truncate_partial_page place in the page could be copied out incorrectly.

I think the best fix for that is to *not* zero out parts of the page in
truncate_partial_page, but rather to zero out the tail of a page when
increasing i_size.
