/*
|
||
|
|
* vmem_* is an interface to a low level arena-based memory allocator on
|
||
|
|
* Illumos that is used to allocate virtual address space. The kmem SLAB
|
||
|
|
* allocator allocates slabs from it. Then the generic allocation functions
|
||
|
|
* kmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}() are layered on top of SLAB allocators.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* On Linux, the primary means of doing allocations is via kmalloc(), which
|
||
|
|
* is similarly layered on top of something called the buddy allocator. The
|
||
|
|
* buddy allocator is not available to kernel modules, it uses physical
|
||
|
|
* memory addresses rather than virtual memory addresses and is prone to
|
||
|
|
* fragmentation.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* Linux sets aside a relatively small address space for in-kernel virtual
|
||
|
|
* memory from which allocations can be done using vmalloc(). It might seem
|
||
|
|
* like a good idea to use vmalloc() to implement something similar to
|
||
|
|
* Illumos' allocator. However, this has the following problems:
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 1. Page directory table allocations are hard coded to use GFP_KERNEL.
|
||
|
|
* Consequently, any KM_PUSHPAGE or KM_NOSLEEP allocations done using
|
||
|
|
* vmalloc() will not have proper semantics.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 2. Address space exhaustion is a real issue on 32-bit platforms where
|
||
|
|
* only a few 100MB are available. The kernel will handle it by spinning
|
||
|
|
* when it runs out of address space.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 3. All vmalloc() allocations and frees are protected by a single global
|
||
|
|
* lock which serializes all allocations.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 4. Accessing /proc/meminfo and /proc/vmallocinfo will iterate the entire
|
||
|
|
* list. The former will sum the allocations while the latter will print
|
||
|
|
* them to user space in a way that user space can keep the lock held
|
||
|
|
* indefinitely. When the total number of mapped allocations is large
|
||
|
|
* (several 100,000) a large amount of time will be spent waiting on locks.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 5. Linux has a wait_on_bit() locking primitive that assumes physical
|
||
|
|
* memory is used, it simply does not work on virtual memory. Certain
|
||
|
|
* Linux structures (e.g. the superblock) use them and might be embedded
|
||
|
|
* into a structure from Illumos. This makes using Linux virtual memory
|
||
|
|
* unsafe in certain situations.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* It follows that we cannot obtain identical semantics to those on Illumos.
|
||
|
|
* Consequently, we implement the kmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}() functions in
|
||
|
|
* such a way that they can be used as drop-in replacements for small vmem_*
|
||
|
|
* allocations (8MB in size or smaller) and map vmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}()
|
||
|
|
* to them.
