[PATCH] mm/cma: populate ZONE_CMA
From: Joonsoo Kim
Date: Thu Mar 24 2016 - 09:29:10 EST
Until now, reserved pages for CMA are managed in the ordinary zones
where page's pfn are belong to. This approach has numorous problems
and fixing them isn't easy. (It is mentioned on previous patch.)
To fix this situation, ZONE_CMA is introduced in previous patch, but,
not yet populated. This patch implement population of ZONE_CMA
by stealing reserved pages from the ordinary zones.
Unlike previous implementation that kernel allocation request with
__GFP_MOVABLE could be serviced from CMA region, allocation request only
with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE can be serviced from CMA region in the new
approach. This is an inevitable design decision to use the zone
implementation because ZONE_CMA could contain highmem. Due to this
decision, ZONE_CMA will work like as ZONE_HIGHMEM or ZONE_MOVABLE.
I don't think it would be a problem because most of file cache pages
and anonymous pages are requested with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE. It could
be proved by the fact that there are many systems with ZONE_HIGHMEM and
they work fine. Notable disadvantage is that we cannot use these pages
for blockdev file cache page, because it usually has __GFP_MOVABLE but
not __GFP_HIGHMEM and __GFP_USER. But, in this case, there is pros and
cons. In my experience, blockdev file cache pages are one of the top
reason that causes cma_alloc() to fail temporarily. So, we can get more
guarantee of cma_alloc() success by discarding that case.
Implementation itself is very easy to understand. Steal when cma area is
initialized and recalculate various per zone stat/threshold.
