This has the following problems. * For certain amount of allocations (determined by PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SLOTS and PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE), percpu allocator can be used before the usual kernel memory allocator is brought online. On SMP, this is used to initialize the kernel memory allocator. * percpu allocator honors alignment upto PAGE_SIZE but kmalloc() doesn't. For example, workqueue makes use of larger alignments for cpu_workqueues. Currently, users of percpu allocators need to handle UP differently, which is somewhat fragile and ugly. Other than small amount of memory, there isn't much to lose by enabling percpu allocator on UP. It can simply use kernel memory based chunk allocation which was added for SMP archs w/o MMUs. This patch removes mm/percpu_up.c, builds mm/percpu.c on UP too and makes UP build use percpu-km. As percpu addresses and kernel addresses are always identity mapped and static percpu variables don't need any special treatment, nothing is arch dependent and mm/percpu.c implements generic setup_per_cpu_areas() for UP.

* | | percpu: fix pcpu_last_unit_cpuTejun Heo2010-09-211-1/+1
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pcpu_first/last_unit_cpu are used to track which cpu has the first and last units assigned. This in turn is used to determine the span of a chunk for man/unmap cache flushes and whether an address belongs to the first chunk or not in per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(). When the number of possible CPUs isn't power of two, a chunk may contain unassigned units towards the end of a chunk. The logic to determine pcpu_last_unit_cpu was incorrect when there was an unused unit at the end of a chunk. It failed to ignore the unused unit and assigned the unused marker NR_CPUS to pcpu_last_unit_cpu. This was discovered through kdump failure which was caused by malfunctioning per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() on a kvm setup with 50 possible CPUs by CAI Qian.

* percpu: allow limited allocation before slab is onlineTejun Heo2010-06-271-12/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates percpu allocator such that it can serve limited amount of allocation before slab comes online. This is primarily to allow slab to depend on working percpu allocator. Two parameters, PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE and SLOTS, determine how much memory space and allocation map slots are reserved. If this reserved area is exhausted, WARN_ON_ONCE() will trigger and allocation will fail till slab comes online. The following changes are made to implement early alloc. * pcpu_mem_alloc() now checks slab_is_available() * Chunks are allocated using pcpu_mem_alloc() * Init paths make sure ai->dyn_size is at least as large as PERCPU_DYNAMIC_EARLY_SIZE. * Initial alloc maps are allocated in __initdata and copied to kmalloc'd areas once slab is online.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In pcpu_build_alloc_info() and pcpu_embed_first_chunk(), @dyn_size was ssize_t, -1 meant auto-size, 0 forced 0 and positive meant minimum size. There's no use case for forcing 0 and the upcoming early alloc support always requires non-zero dynamic size. Make @dyn_size always mean minimum dyn_size.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() determines whether the passed in @addr belongs to the first_chunk or not by just matching the address against the address range of the base unit (unit0, used by cpu0). When an adress from another cpu was passed in, it will always determine that the address doesn't belong to the first chunk even when it does. This makes the function return a bogus physical address which may lead to crash. This problem was discovered by Cliff Wickman while investigating a crash during kdump on a SGI UV system.

* percpu: implement kernel memory based chunk allocationTejun Heo2010-05-011-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement an alternate percpu chunk management based on kernel memeory for nommu SMP architectures. Instead of mapping into vmalloc area, chunks are allocated as a contiguous kernel memory using alloc_pages(). As such, percpu allocator on nommu will have the following restrictions. * It can't fill chunks on-demand page-by-page. It has to allocate each chunk fully upfront. * It can't support sparse chunk for NUMA configurations. SMP w/o mmu is crazy enough. Let's hope no one does NUMA w/o mmu. :-P * If chunk size isn't power-of-two multiple of PAGE_SIZE, the unaligned amount will be wasted on each chunk. So, archs which use this better align chunk size.

| * percpu: update embedding first chunk allocator to handle sparse unitsTejun Heo2009-08-141-28/+85
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that percpu core can handle very sparse units, given that vmalloc space is large enough, embedding first chunk allocator can use any memory to build the first chunk. This patch teaches pcpu_embed_first_chunk() about distances between cpus and to use alloc/free callbacks to allocate node specific areas for each group and use them for the first chunk. This brings the benefits of embedding allocator to NUMA configurations - no extra TLB pressure with the flexibility of unified dynamic allocator and no need to restructure arch code to build memory layout suitable for percpu. With units put into atom_size aligned groups according to cpu distances, using large page for dynamic chunks is also easily possible with falling back to reuglar pages if large allocation fails. Embedding allocator users are converted to specify NULL cpu_distance_fn, so this patch doesn't cause any visible behavior difference. Following patches will convert them.

| * percpu: use group information to allocate vmap areas sparselyTejun Heo2009-08-141-9/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ai->groups[] contains which units need to be put consecutively and at what offset from the chunk base address. Compile this information into pcpu_group_offsets[] and pcpu_group_sizes[] in pcpu_setup_first_chunk() and use them to allocate sparse vm areas using pcpu_get_vm_areas(). This will be used to allow directly using sparse NUMA memories as percpu areas. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de>
| * percpu: add chunk->base_addrTejun Heo2009-08-141-14/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only thing percpu allocator wants to know about a vmalloc area is the base address. Instead of requiring chunk->vm, add chunk->base_addr which contains the necessary value. This simplifies the code a bit and makes the dummy first_vm unnecessary. This change will ease allowing a chunk to be mapped by multiple vms. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
| * percpu: add pcpu_unit_offsets[]Tejun Heo2009-08-141-48/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently units are mapped sequentially into address space. This patch adds pcpu_unit_offsets[] which allows units to be mapped to arbitrary offsets from the chunk base address. This is necessary to allow sparse embedding which might would need to allocate address ranges and memory areas which aren't aligned to unit size but allocation atom size (page or large page size). This also simplifies things a bit by removing the need to calculate offset from unit number. With this change, there's no need for the arch code to know pcpu_unit_size. Update pcpu_setup_first_chunk() and first chunk allocators to return regular 0 or -errno return code instead of unit size or -errno. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: David S.

| * percpu: introduce pcpu_alloc_info and pcpu_group_infoTejun Heo2009-08-141-201/+328
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Till now, non-linear cpu->unit map was expressed using an integer array which maps each cpu to a unit and used only by lpage allocator. Although how many units have been placed in a single contiguos area (group) is known while building unit_map, the information is lost when the result is recorded into the unit_map array. For lpage allocator, as all allocations are done by lpages and whether two adjacent lpages are in the same group or not is irrelevant, this didn't cause any problem. Non-linear cpu->unit mapping will be used for sparse embedding and this grouping information is necessary for that. This patch introduces pcpu_alloc_info which contains all the information necessary for initializing percpu allocator. pcpu_alloc_info contains array of pcpu_group_info which describes how units are grouped and mapped to cpus. pcpu_group_info also has base_offset field to specify its offset from the chunk's base address. pcpu_build_alloc_info() initializes this field as if all groups are allocated back-to-back as is currently done but this will be used to sparsely place groups. pcpu_alloc_info is a rather complex data structure which contains a flexible array which in turn points to nested cpu_map arrays. * pcpu_alloc_alloc_info() and pcpu_free_alloc_info() are provided to help dealing with pcpu_alloc_info. * pcpu_lpage_build_unit_map() is updated to build pcpu_alloc_info, generalized and renamed to pcpu_build_alloc_info(). @cpu_distance_fn may be NULL indicating that all cpus are of LOCAL_DISTANCE. * pcpul_lpage_dump_cfg() is updated to process pcpu_alloc_info, generalized and renamed to pcpu_dump_alloc_info(). It now also prints which group each alloc unit belongs to. * pcpu_setup_first_chunk() now takes pcpu_alloc_info instead of the separate parameters. All first chunk allocators are updated to use pcpu_build_alloc_info() to build alloc_info and call pcpu_setup_first_chunk() with it. This has the side effect of packing units for sparse possible cpus. ie. if cpus 0, 2 and 4 are possible, they'll be assigned unit 0, 1 and 2 instead of 0, 2 and 4. * x86 setup_pcpu_lpage() is updated to deal with alloc_info. * sparc64 setup_per_cpu_areas() is updated to build alloc_info. Although the changes made by this patch are pretty pervasive, it doesn't cause any behavior difference other than packing of sparse cpus. It mostly changes how information is passed among initialization functions and makes room for more flexibility.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | First chunk allocators assume percpu areas have been linked using one of PERCPU_*() macros and depend on __per_cpu_load symbol defined by those macros, so there isn't much point in passing in static area size explicitly when it can be easily calculated from __per_cpu_start and __per_cpu_end.
