* mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flagMichal Hocko2017-09-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is no good answer for those questions. The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits. I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning. I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention. I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and only then add users with proper justification. This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term allocations.

* xen: set error code on failuresPan Bian2016-12-081-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Variable rc is reset in the loop, and its value will be non-negative during the second and after repeat of the loop. If it fails to allocate memory then, it may return a non-negative integer, which indicates no error. This patch fixes the bug, assigning "-ENOMEM" to rc when kzalloc() or alloc_page() returns NULL, and removing the initialization of rc outside of the loop.

* | xen: Use correctly the Xen memory terminologiesJulien Grall2015-09-081-1/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and confused developers about the expected behavior. For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name. Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN. For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion in xen repo. Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page. Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up will come in follow-up patches.

* xen/gntalloc: safely delete grefs in add_grefs() undo pathDavid Vrabel2014-09-041-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a gref could not be added (perhaps because the limit has been reached or there are no more grant references available), the undo path may crash because __del_gref() frees the gref while it is being used for a list iteration. A comment suggests that using list_for_each_entry() is safe since the gref isn't removed from the list being iterated over, but it is freed and thus list_for_each_entry_safe() must be used. Also, explicitly delete the gref from the local per-file list, even though this is not strictly necessary.

* xen/gntdev,gntalloc: Remove unneeded VM flagsDaniel De Graaf2011-03-091-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only time when granted pages need to be treated specially is when using Xen's PTE modification for grant mappings owned by another domain (that is, only gntdev on PV guests). Otherwise, the area does not require VM_DONTCOPY and VM_PFNMAP, since it can be accessed just like any other page of RAM. Since the vm_operations_struct close operations decrement reference counts, a corresponding open function that increments them is required now that it is possible to have multiple references to a single area. We are careful in the gntdev to check if we can remove those flags. The reason that we need to be careful in gntdev on PV guests is because we are not changing the PFN/MFN mapping on PV; instead, we change the application's page tables to point to the other domain's memory. This means that the vma cannot be copied without using another grant mapping hypercall; it also requires special handling on unmap, which is the reason for gntdev's dependency on the MMU notifier. For gntalloc, this is not a concern - the pages are owned by the domain using the gntalloc device, and can be mapped and unmapped in the same manner as any other page of memory.
