      SLUB: Fix dynamic dma kmalloc cache creation · 1ceef402
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      The dynamic dma kmalloc creation can run into trouble if a
GFP_ATOMIC allocation is the first one performed for a certain size
of dma kmalloc slab.

- Move the adding of the slab to sysfs into a workqueue
  (sysfs does GFP_KERNEL allocations)
- Do not call kmem_cache_destroy() (uses slub_lock)
- Only acquire the slub_lock once and--if we cannot wait--do a trylock.

  This introduces a slight risk of the first kmalloc(x, GFP_DMA|GFP_ATOMIC)
  for a range of sizes failing due to another process holding the slub_lock.
  However, we only need to acquire the spinlock once in order to establish
  each power of two DMA kmalloc cache. The possible conflict is with the
  slub_lock taken during slab management actions (create / remove slab cache).

  It is rather typical that a driver will first fill its buffers using
  GFP_KERNEL allocations which will wait until the slub_lock can be acquired.
  Drivers will also create its slab caches first outside of an atomic
  context before starting to use atomic kmalloc from an interrupt context.

  If there are any failures then they will occur early after boot or when
  loading of multiple drivers concurrently. Drivers can already accomodate
  failures of GFP_ATOMIC for other reasons. Retries will then create the slab.

      SLUB: Remove checks for MAX_PARTIAL from kmem_cache_shrink · fcda3d89
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      The MAX_PARTIAL checks were supposed to be an optimization. However, slab
shrinking is a manually triggered process either through running slabinfo
or by the kernel calling kmem_cache_shrink.

If one really wants to shrink a slab then all operations should be done
regardless of the size of the partial list. This also fixes an issue that
could surface if the number of partial slabs was initially above MAX_PARTIAL
in kmem_cache_shrink and later drops below MAX_PARTIAL through the
elimination of empty slabs on the partial list (rare). In that case a few
slabs may be left off the partial list (and only be put back when they
are empty).

      mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create(). · 20c2df83
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

      slub: fix ksize() for zero-sized pointers · 9550b105
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      The slab and slob allocators already did this right, but slub would call
"get_object_page()" on the magic ZERO_SIZE_PTR, with all kinds of nasty
end results.

      SLUB: Fix NUMA / SYSFS bootstrap issue · 8ffa6875
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      We need this patch in ASAP.  Patch fixes the mysterious hang that remained
on some particular configurations with lockdep on after the first fix that
moved the #idef CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG to the right location.  See
http://marc.info/?t=117963072300001&r=1&w=2

The kmem_cache_node cache is very special because it is needed for NUMA
bootstrap.  Under certain conditions (like for example if lockdep is
enabled and significantly increases the size of spinlock_t) the structure
may become exactly the size as one of the larger caches in the kmalloc
array.

That early during bootstrap we cannot perform merging properly.  The unique
id for the kmem_cache_node cache will match one of the kmalloc array.
Sysfs will complain about a duplicate directory entry.  All of this occurs
while the console is not yet fully operational.  Thus boot may appear to be
silently failing.

The kmem_cache_node cache is very special.  During early boostrap the main
allocation function is not operational yet and so we have to run our own
small special alloc function during early boot.  It is also special in that
it is never freed.

We really do not want any merging on that cache.  Set the refcount -1 and
forbid merging of slabs that have a negative refcount.
