Since v5.13 the page bulk allocator was introduced to allocate order-0
pages in bulk. There are a few mempool allocator callers which does
order-0 page allocation in a loop, for example, dm-crypt, f2fs compress,
etc. A mempool page bulk allocator seems useful. So introduce the
mempool page bulk allocator.
It introduces the below APIs:
- mempool_init_pages_bulk()
- mempool_create_pages_bulk()
They initialize the mempool for page bulk allocator. The pool is filled
by alloc_page() in a loop.
- mempool_alloc_pages_bulk_list()
- mempool_alloc_pages_bulk_array()
They do bulk allocation from mempool.
They do the below conceptually:
1. Call bulk page allocator
2. If the allocation is fulfilled then return otherwise try to
allocate the remaining pages from the mempool
3. If it is fulfilled then return otherwise retry from #1 with sleepable
gfp
4. If it is still failed, sleep for a while to wait for the mempool is
refilled, then retry from #1
The populated pages will stay on the list or array until the callers
consume them or free them.
Since mempool allocator is guaranteed to success in the sleepable context,
so the two APIs return true for success or false for fail. It is the
caller's responsibility to handle failure case (partial allocation), just
like the page bulk allocator.
The mempool typically is an object agnostic allocator, but bulk allocation
is only supported by pages, so the mempool bulk allocator is for page
allocation only as well.
