[PATCH] add kmalloc_node, inline cleanup
The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab allocator: kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node); kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node); in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions: kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags); kmalloc(size, flags); kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor rearrangements). The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages, cache_grow) are already node aware. Also __alloc_percpu can call kmalloc_node now. Performance measurements (using the pageset localization patch) yields: w/o patches: Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 484.27 100 484.2736 12.02 1.97 Wed Mar 30 20:50:43 2005 100 25170.83 91 251.7083 23.12 150.10 Wed Mar 30 20:51:06 2005 200 34601.66 84 173.0083 33.64 294.14 Wed Mar 30 20:51:40 2005 300 37154.47 86 123.8482 46.99 436.56 Wed Mar 30 20:52:28 2005 400 39839.82 80 99.5995 58.43 580.46 Wed Mar 30 20:53:27 2005 500 40036.32 79 80.0726 72.68 728.60 Wed Mar 30 20:54:40 2005 600 44074.21 79 73.4570 79.23 872.10 Wed Mar 30 20:55:59 2005 700 44016.60 78 62.8809 92.56 1015.84 Wed Mar 30 20:57:32 2005 800 40411.05 80 50.5138 115.22 1161.13 Wed Mar 30 20:59:28 2005 900 42298.56 79 46.9984 123.83 1303.42 Wed Mar 30 21:01:33 2005 1000 40955.05 80 40.9551 142.11 1441.92 Wed Mar 30 21:03:55 2005 with pageset localization and slab API patches: Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 484.19 100 484.1930 12.02 1.98 Wed Mar 30 21:10:18 2005 100 27428.25 92 274.2825 21.22 149.79 Wed Mar 30 21:10:40 2005 200 37228.94 86 186.1447 31.27 293.49 Wed Mar 30 21:11:12 2005 300 41725.42 85 139.0847 41.84 434.10 Wed Mar 30 21:11:54 2005 400 43032.22 82 107.5805 54.10 582.06 Wed Mar 30 21:12:48 2005 500 42211.23 83 84.4225 68.94 722.61 Wed Mar 30 21:13:58 2005 600 40084.49 82 66.8075 87.12 873.11 Wed Mar 30 21:15:25 2005 700 44169.30 79 63.0990 92.24 1008.77 Wed Mar 30 21:16:58 2005 800 43097.94 79 53.8724 108.03 1155.88 Wed Mar 30 21:18:47 2005 900 41846.75 79 46.4964 125.17 1303.38 Wed Mar 30 21:20:52 2005 1000 40247.85 79 40.2478 144.60 1442.21 Wed Mar 30 21:23:17 2005 Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
