Define the fields used by slob in mm_types.h and use struct page instead of struct slob_page in slob. This cleans up a lot of typecasts in slob.c and makes readers aware of slob's use of page struct fields. [Also cleans up some bitrot in slob.c. The page struct field layout in slob.c is an old layout and does not match the one in mm_types.h] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@xxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/mm_types.h | 5 +- mm/slob.c | 105 ++++++++++++++++++----------------------------- 2 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 65 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/mm/slob.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/mm/slob.c 2012-04-11 07:07:16.672129272 -0500 +++ linux-2.6/mm/slob.c 2012-04-11 07:12:34.344122598 -0500 @@ -92,33 +92,12 @@ struct slob_block { typedef struct slob_block slob_t; /* - * We use struct page fields to manage some slob allocation aspects, - * however to avoid the horrible mess in include/linux/mm_types.h, we'll - * just define our own struct page type variant here. - */ -struct slob_page { - union { - struct { - unsigned long flags; /* mandatory */ - atomic_t _count; /* mandatory */ - slobidx_t units; /* free units left in page */ - unsigned long pad[2]; - slob_t *free; /* first free slob_t in page */ - struct list_head list; /* linked list of free pages */ - }; - struct page page; - }; -}; -static inline void struct_slob_page_wrong_size(void) -{ BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct slob_page) != sizeof(struct page)); } - -/* * free_slob_page: call before a slob_page is returned to the page allocator. */ -static inline void free_slob_page(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline void free_slob_page(struct page *sp) { - reset_page_mapcount(&sp->page); - sp->page.mapping = NULL; + reset_page_mapcount(sp); + sp->mapping = NULL; } /* @@ -133,44 +112,44 @@ static LIST_HEAD(free_slob_large); /* * is_slob_page: True for all slob pages (false for bigblock pages) */ -static inline int is_slob_page(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline int is_slob_page(struct page *sp) { - return PageSlab((struct page *)sp); + return PageSlab(sp); } -static inline void set_slob_page(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline void set_slob_page(struct page *sp) { - __SetPageSlab((struct page *)sp); + __SetPageSlab(sp); } -static inline void clear_slob_page(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline void clear_slob_page(struct page *sp) { - __ClearPageSlab((struct page *)sp); + __ClearPageSlab(sp); } -static inline struct slob_page *slob_page(const void *addr) +static inline struct page *slob_page(const void *addr) { - return (struct slob_page *)virt_to_page(addr); + return virt_to_page(addr); } /* * slob_page_free: true for pages on free_slob_pages list. */ -static inline int slob_page_free(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline int slob_page_free(struct page *sp) { - return PageSlobFree((struct page *)sp); + return PageSlobFree(sp); } -static void set_slob_page_free(struct slob_page *sp, struct list_head *list) +static void set_slob_page_free(struct page *sp, struct list_head *list) { - list_add(&sp->list, list); - __SetPageSlobFree((struct page *)sp); + list_add(&sp->lru, list); + __SetPageSlobFree(sp); } -static inline void clear_slob_page_free(struct slob_page *sp) +static inline void clear_slob_page_free(struct page *sp) { - list_del(&sp->list); - __ClearPageSlobFree((struct page *)sp); + list_del(&sp->lru); + __ClearPageSlobFree(sp); } #define SLOB_UNIT sizeof(slob_t) @@ -267,12 +246,12 @@ static void slob_free_pages(void *b, int /* * Allocate a slob block within a given slob_page sp. */ -static void *slob_page_alloc(struct slob_page *sp, size_t size, int align) +static void *slob_page_alloc(struct page *sp, size_t size, int align) { slob_t *prev, *cur, *aligned = NULL; int delta = 0, units = SLOB_UNITS(size); - for (prev = NULL, cur = sp->free; ; prev = cur, cur = slob_next(cur)) { + for (prev = NULL, cur = sp->freelist; ; prev = cur, cur = slob_next(cur)) { slobidx_t avail = slob_units(cur); if (align) { @@ -296,12 +275,12 @@ static void *slob_page_alloc(struct slob if (prev) set_slob(prev, slob_units(prev), next); else - sp->free = next; + sp->freelist = next; } else { /* fragment */ if (prev) set_slob(prev, slob_units(prev), cur + units); else - sp->free = cur + units; + sp->freelist = cur + units; set_slob(cur + units, avail - units, next); } @@ -320,7 +299,7 @@ static void *slob_page_alloc(struct slob */ static void *slob_alloc(size_t size, gfp_t gfp, int align, int node) { - struct slob_page *sp; + struct page *sp; struct list_head *prev; struct list_head *slob_list; slob_t *b = NULL; @@ -335,13 +314,13 @@ static void *slob_alloc(size_t size, gfp spin_lock_irqsave(&slob_lock, flags); /* Iterate through each partially free page, try to find room */ - list_for_each_entry(sp, slob_list, list) { + list_for_each_entry(sp, slob_list, lru) { #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA /* * If there's a node specification, search for a partial * page with a matching node id in the freelist. */ - if (node != -1 && page_to_nid(&sp->page) != node) + if (node != -1 && page_to_nid(sp) != node) continue; #endif /* Enough room on this page?
