We're using this function for ringbuffers and other "small" objects, so it's worth avoiding an extra malloc()/free() cycle if the page array is small enough to put on the stack. Here we've chosen an arbitrary cutoff of 32 (4k) pages, which is big enough for a ringbuffer (4 pages) or a context image (currently up to 22 pages). v5: change name of local array [Chris Wilson] Signed-off-by: Dave Gordon <david.s.gordon@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Alex Dai <yu.dai@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c | 17 +++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c index c621b3e..c126211 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c @@ -2417,7 +2417,8 @@ void *i915_gem_object_vmap_range(struct drm_i915_gem_object *obj, unsigned int npages) { struct sg_page_iter sg_iter; - struct page **pages; + struct page *stack_pages[32]; + struct page **pages = stack_pages; void *addr; int i; @@ -2426,10 +2427,13 @@ void *i915_gem_object_vmap_range(struct drm_i915_gem_object *obj, return NULL; } - pages = drm_malloc_gfp(npages, sizeof(*pages), GFP_TEMPORARY); - if (pages == NULL) { - DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER("Failed to get space for pages\n"); - return NULL; + if (npages > ARRAY_SIZE(stack_pages)) { + /* Too big for stack -- allocate temporary array instead */ + pages = drm_malloc_gfp(npages, sizeof(*pages), GFP_TEMPORARY); + if (pages == NULL) { + DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER("Failed to get space for pages\n"); + return NULL; + } } i = 0; @@ -2442,7 +2446,8 @@ void *i915_gem_object_vmap_range(struct drm_i915_gem_object *obj, addr = vmap(pages, npages, 0, PAGE_KERNEL); if (addr == NULL) DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER("Failed to vmap pages\n"); - drm_free_large(pages); + if (pages != stack_pages) + drm_free_large(pages); return addr; }
