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.

The rarely used dma functionality in get_slab() makes the function too complex. The compiler begins to spill variables from the working set onto the stack. The created function is only used in extremely rare cases so make sure that the compiler does not decide on its own to merge it back into get_slab().

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.

We currently have to do an GFP_ATOMIC allocation because the list_lock is already taken when we first allocate memory for tracking allocation information. It would be better if we could avoid atomic allocations. Allocate a size of the tracking table that is usually sufficient (one page) before we take the list lock. We will then only do the atomic allocation if we need to resize the table to become larger than a page (mostly only needed under large NUMA because of the tracking of cpus and nodes otherwise the table stays small).

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.

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.

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.

This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether asymmetric or otherwise. We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have a matching node id in the page flags. The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

However, only the non-static versions are __meminit annotated, despite only being called from __meminit functions in either case. zone_init_free_lists() is currently non-static and not __meminit annotated either, despite only being called once in the entire tree by init_currently_empty_zone(), which too is __meminit. So make it static and properly annotated.

Enabling debugging fails to build due to the nodemask variable in do_mbind() having changed names, and then oopses on boot due to the assumption that the nodemask can be dereferenced -- which doesn't work out so well when the policy is changed to MPOL_DEFAULT with a NULL nodemask by numa_default_policy(). This fixes it up, and switches from PDprintk() to pr_debug() while we're at it.
