[PATCH 1/2] rcu: Transform kfree_rcu() into kvfree_rcu()

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

 



Recent times kvmalloc() begun widely be used in kernel.
Some of such memory allocations have to be freed after
rcu grace period, and this patch introduces a generic
primitive for doing this.

Currently, there is kfree_rcu() primitive in kernel,
which encodes rcu_head offset inside freed structure
on place of callback function. We can simply reuse it
and replace final kfree() in __rcu_reclaim() with
kvfree(). Since this primitive is able to free memory
allocated via kmalloc(), vmalloc() and kvmalloc(),
we may have single kvfree_rcu(), and define kfree_rcu()
and vfree_rcu() through it.

This allows users to avoid to implement custom functions
for destruction kvmalloc()'ed and vmalloc()'ed memory.
The new primitive kvfree_rcu() are used since next patch.
