[RFC] bootmem for 2.5

From: William Irwin (willir@us.ibm.com)
Date: Fri Nov 02 2001 - 17:02:07 EST


A number of people have expressed a wish to replace the bitmap-based
bootmem allocator with one that tracks ranges explicitly. I have
written such a replacement in order to deal with some of the situations
I have encountered.

The following patch features space usage proportional only to the number
of distinct fragments of memory, tracking available memory at address
granularity up until the point of initializing per-page data structures,
and the use of segment trees in order to support efficient searches on
those rare machines where this is an issue. According to testing, this
patch appears to save somewhere between 8KB and 2MB on i386 PC's versus
the bitmap-based bootmem allocator.

The following patch has been tested on i386 PC's, IA64 Lions, and IBM
IA64 NUMA hardware with sparse memory, and debugged without the help
of logic analyzers or in-target probes. I would like to thank the
testers of #kernelnewbies (reltuk and asalib) and my co-workers for
their help in making this work, and Tony Luck and Jack Steiner for
their assistance in profiling the existing bootmem.

I am now especially interested in feedback regarding its design, and
also the results of wider testing.

Cheers,
Bill

+ * Simple treap implementation, following Aragon and Seidel.
+ *
+ * Treaps are a simple binary search tree structure, with a twist that
+ * radically simplifies their management. That is that they keep both
+ * the search key and a randomly generated priority. They are then both
+ * heap-ordered according to the priority and binary search tree ordered
+ * according to the search keys. They are specifically designed for, and
+ * also reputed to be effective at range tree and segment tree structures
+ * according to both Knuth and dynamic sets according to the
+ * Blelloch/Reid-Miller paper.
+ *
+ * The rotations themselves are simple, and they are done less often
+ * than for some kinds of trees, where splay trees where specifically
+ * mentioned by Knuth. The decision process as to when to perform a
+ * rotation is simplified by the heap structure. Rotations are done in
+ * two instances: when rotating a node down to a leaf position before
+ * deletion, and in restoring the heap ordering after an insertion.
+ *
+ * Treaps also support fast splitting and joining operations, which
+ * make them convenient for interval searches.
+ *
+ * One important fact to observe is that when joining, all of the
+ * members of the left tree must be less than all the members of
+ * the right tree, or otherwise the search tree ordering breaks.

- * Access to this subsystem has to be serialized externally. (this is
- * true for the boot process anyway)
+ * Design notes:
+ *
+ * This design was arrived at by considering four principal concerns,
+ * beyond properly representing discontiguous memory machines:
+ *
+ * (1) Machines on which the physical address space is highly fragmented.
+ * (2) Machines where nodes' memory fragments may be interleaved.
+ * (3) Machines whose physical address space layouts are irregular.
+ * (4) Machines requiring heavy boot-time memory reservation activity.
+ *
+ * These design concerns led to an implementation which represented
+ * available physical memory explicitly in terms of intervals to save
+ * space and also one utilizing an efficient search structure. These
+ * design concerns may not be universally important; however, small
+ * benefits should be seen even on low-memory machines, or machines
+ * without significant boot-time memory reservation activity.
+ *
+ * Concern (3) is perhaps the principal concern. In this situation,
+ * there is very little prior knowledge of memory range to node
+ * mappings, so perhaps a large portion of the work the bootmem
+ * allocator is intended to do must be done "up front" when bitmaps
+ * associated with memory ranges are used to represent availability
+ * information. While it is possible to use bitmaps for that purpose,
+ * it is my belief that the reduced space overhead of the segment
+ * trees and the obliviousness of their storage management with
+ * respect to the address ranges they represent is advantageous.
+ *
+ * In order to motivate how (2) is addressed, the notion of
+ * "residency" is useful. When a memory range is associated with
+ * a node, only a certain portion of it is actually available.
+ * the ratio of available memory to the size of the memory range
+ * being tracked, sizeof(available memory)/sizeof(memory in map),
+ * is what I call the residency of the range. When the map of the
+ * available memory requires a contiguous range of memory that is
+ * a larger proportion of the range of memory being tracked than
+ * the residency of that range, then the algorithm can no longer
+ * properly function.
+ * So to address that, a representation has been chosen which does
+ * not grow with the size of the range of memory being represented.
+ * The residency requirements of the bitmap-based representation
+ * are 1/(8*sizeof(page)) on byte addressed machines. But the range
+ * set representation has no specific residency requirements.
+ * Segment pools need not be drawn from a contiguous range of memory
+ * larger than the combined size of a header for tracking all the
+ * segment pools and the size of a single range structure. Dynamic
+ * addition of segment pools is not implemented here yet.
