Introduce alloc_contig_frozen_pages() and cma_alloc_frozen_compound()
which avoid atomic operation about page refcount, and then convert to
allocate frozen gigantic folio by the new helpers in hugetlb to cleanup
the alloc_gigantic_folio().
v6:
- fix crash due to wrong count passed to __cma_release_frozen() in
patch5
- thanks for the report from Mark/Claudiu/Dmitry and Zi's quickly fix
- besides hugetlb/hugetlb_cma tests, do more testing with cma_debug interface
- rebased on mm-new and collect RB
v5:
- address Zi Yan's comments
- convert one more VM_BUG_ON_PAGE to VM_WARN_ON_PAGE in split_page()
- add a check to catch a tail page in free_contig_frozen_range()
- remove __cma_release() and update patch3's changelog
- put each page’s refcount in cma_release() and add find_cma_memrange()/
__cma_release_frozen() to unify release path, which make the release
pattern matches allocation patter
- rename alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio() and alloc_gigantic_folio() with frozen
- fix wrong node id passed to cma_alloc_frozen_compound() in
hugetlb_cma_alloc_folio(), found by lkp
- collect ACK/RB from Zi Yan/Muchun
- rebased on mm-new
v4 RESEND:
- fix set_pages_refcounted() due to bad git-rebase
- rebased on next1215, also could be apply to mm-new.
v4:
- add VM_WARN_ON_PAGE and instead of VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in __split_page()
- add back pr_debug part in __cma_release()
- rename alloc_contig_range_frozen to alloc_contig_frozen_range, and
make alloc_contig_{range,pages} to only allocate non-compound pages,
the free_contig_range() adjusted accordingly
- add set_pages_refcounted helper to reduce code duplication
- collect ACK
v3:
- Fix built warn/err, found by lkp test
- Address some David's comments,
- Focus on frozen part and drop the optimization part
- Rename split_non_compound_pages() to __split_pages()
- Adding back debug print/WARN_ON if no cma range found or the
pfn range of page is not full match the cma range.
v2:
- Optimize gigantic folio allocation speed
- Using HPAGE_PUD_ORDER in debug_vm_pgtable
- Address some David's comments,
- kill folio_alloc_gigantic()
- add generic cma_alloc_frozen{_compound}() instead of
cma_{alloc,free}_folio
Kefeng Wang (6):
mm: debug_vm_pgtable: add debug_vm_pgtable_free_huge_page()
mm: page_alloc: add __split_page()
mm: cma: kill cma_pages_valid()
mm: page_alloc: add alloc_contig_frozen_{range,pages}()
mm: cma: add cma_alloc_frozen{_compound}()
mm: hugetlb: allocate frozen pages for gigantic allocation
