[PATCH 11/26] mm: asi: ASI page table allocation functions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Junaid Shahid <junaids@xxxxxxxxxx>

This adds custom allocation and free functions for ASI page tables.

The alloc functions support allocating memory using different GFP
reclaim flags, in order to be able to support non-sensitive allocations
from both standard and atomic contexts. They also install the page
tables locklessly, which makes it slightly simpler to handle
non-sensitive allocations from interrupts/exceptions.

+ * These are like the normal xxx_alloc functions, but:
+ *
+ *  - They use atomic operations instead of taking a spinlock; this allows them
+ *    to be used from interrupts. This is necessary because we use the page
+ *    allocator from interrupts and the page allocator ultimately calls this
+ *    code.
+ *  - They support customizing the allocation flags.
+ *
+ * On the other hand, they do not use the normal page allocation infrastructure,
+ * that means that PTE pages do not have the PageTable type nor the PagePgtable
+ * flag and we don't increment the meminfo stat (NR_PAGETABLE) as they do.
