[RFC 5/8] shmem: account for larger blocks sizes for shmem_default_max_blocks()

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

 



If we end up supporting a larger block size than PAGE_SIZE the calculations in
shmem_default_max_blocks() need to be modified to take into account the fact
that multiple pages would be required for a single block.

Today the max number of blocks is computed based on the fact that we
will by default use half of the available memory and each block is of
PAGE_SIZE.

And so we end up with:

totalram_pages() / 2

That's becauase blocksize == PAGE_SIZE. When blocksize > PAGE_SIZE
we need to consider how how many blocks fit into totalram_pages() first,
then just divide by 2. This ends up being:

totalram_pages * PAGE_SIZE / blocksize / 2
totalram_pages * 2^PAGE_SHIFT / 2^bbits / 2
totalram_pages * 2^(PAGE_SHIFT - bbits - 1)

We know bbits > PAGE_SHIFT so we'll end up with a negative
power of 2. 2^(-some_val). We can factor the -1 out by changing
this to a division of power of 2 and flipping the values for
the signs:

-1 * (PAGE_SHIFT - bbits -1) = (-PAGE_SHIFT + bbits + 1)
                             = (bbits - PAGE_SHIFT + 1)

And so we end up with:

totalram_pages / 2^(bbits - PAGE_SHIFT + 1)

We use __ffs(blocksize) as this computation is needed early on before
any inode is established.
