[PATCH v2 1/3] staging: zcache: xcfmalloc memory allocator for zcache

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

 



xcfmalloc is a memory allocator based on a scatter-gather model that
allows for cross-page storage and relocatable data blocks.  This is
achieved through a simple, though non-standard, memory allocation API.

xcfmalloc is a replacement for the xvmalloc allocator used by zcache
for persistent compressed page storage.

xcfmalloc uses a scatter-gather block model in order to reduce external
fragmentation (at the expense of an extra memcpy).  Low fragmentation
is especially important for a zcache allocator since memory will already
be under pressure.

It also uses relocatable data blocks in order to allow compaction to take
place.  Compacting seeks to move blocks to other, less sparsely used,
pages such that the maximum number of pages can be returned to the kernel
buddy allocator. Compaction is not yet implemented in this patch.
