[PATCH V3 1/3] lib/sg_pool.c: improve APIs for allocating sg pool

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

 



Now sg_alloc_table_chained() allows user to provide one preallocated
SGL, and returns simply if the requested number isn't bigger than size of
that SGL. This way is nice for inline small SGL to small IO request.

However, scattergather code only allows that size of the 1st preallocated
SGL is SG_CHUNK_SIZE(128), and this way isn't flexiable and useful, because
it may take too much memory(4KB) to pre-allocat one such size SGL for each
IO request, especially block layer always pre-allocates IO request structure.
Instead it is more friendly to pre-allocate one small size inline SGL just
for small IO.

Introduces __sg_alloc_table_chained() and __sg_free_table_chained() with
one extra parameter to specify size of the pre-allocated SGL, then the
'first_chunk' SGL can include any number of entries.

Both __sg_free_table() and __sg_alloc_table() supposes that each SGL has
same size except for the last one, changes code to allow both to accept
variant size for the 1st preallocated SGL.
