[RFC PATCH] mm, slob: Rewrite SLOB using segregated free list

From: Hyeonggon Yoo
Date: Wed Oct 20 2021 - 09:55:48 EST

Hello linux-mm, I rewrote SLOB using segregated free list,
to understand SLOB and SLUB more. It uses more kilobytes
of memory (48kB on 32bit tinyconfig) and became 9~10x faster.

But after rewriting, I thought I need to discuss what SLOB is for.
According to Matthew, SLOB is for small machines whose
memory is 1~16 MB.

I wonder adding 48kB on SLOB memory for speed/lower latency
is worth or harmful.

So.. questions in my head now:
- Who is users of SLOB?
- Is it harmful to add some kilobytes of memory into SLOB?
- Is it really possible to run linux under 10MB of RAM?
(I failed with tinyconfig.)
- What is the boundary to make decision between SLOB and SLUB?

Anyway, below is my work.
Any comments/opinions will be appreciated!

SLOB uses sequential fit method. the advantages of this method
is the fact that it is simple and does not have complex metadata.

But big downside of sequential fit method is its high latency
in allocation/deallocation and fast fragmentation.

High latency comes from iterating pages and also iterating objects
in the page to find suitable free object. And fragmentation easily
happens because objects of difference size is allocated in same page.

This patch tries to minimize both its latency and fragmentation by
re-implmenting SLOB using segregated free list method and adding
support for slab merging. it looks like lightweight SLUB but more
compact than SLUB.

One notable difference is after this patch SLOB uses kmalloc_caches
like SL[AU]B.

Below is performance impacts of this patch.

Memory usage was measured on 32 bit + tinyconfig + slab merging.

Before:
MemTotal: 29668 kB
MemFree: 19364 kB
MemAvailable: 18396 kB
Slab: 668 kB

After:
MemTotal: 29668 kB
MemFree: 19420 kB
MemAvailable: 18452 kB
Slab: 716 kB

This patch adds about 48 kB after boot.

hackbench was measured on 64 bit typical buildroot configuration.
After this patch it's 9~10x faster than before.

- * allocator is as little as 2 bytes, however typically most architectures
- * will require 4 bytes on 32-bit and 8 bytes on 64-bit.
- *
- * The slob heap is a set of linked list of pages from alloc_pages(),
- * and within each page, there is a singly-linked list of free blocks
- * (slob_t). The heap is grown on demand. To reduce fragmentation,
- * heap pages are segregated into three lists, with objects less than

+ * allocator is as little as size of pointers. This will require
+ * 4 bytes on 32-bit and 8 bytes on 64-bit.
*
- * Allocation from heap involves first searching for a page with
- * sufficient free blocks (using a next-fit-like approach) followed by
- * a first-fit scan of the page. Deallocation inserts objects back
- * into the free list in address order, so this is effectively an
- * address-ordered first fit.
+ * A cache manages a linked list of pages allocated from alloc_pages()
+ * per node. and within each page, there is a singly-linked list of
+ * free blocks. The heap is grown on demand.
*
- * Above this is an implementation of kmalloc/kfree. Blocks returned
- * from kmalloc are prepended with a 4-byte header with the kmalloc size.
- * If kmalloc is asked for objects of PAGE_SIZE or larger, it calls
+ * If SLOB is asked for objects of PAGE_SIZE or larger, it calls

- * These objects are detected in kfree() because PageSlab()
+ * These objects are detected in kfree()/slob_free() because PageSlab()
* is false for them.
*
+ * Allocation from heap is done by taking object from freelist of the page.
+ * Deallocation inserts objects back into the head of a freelist.
+ *
+ * Allocation/Deallocation is done in constant time as SLOB does not
+ * iterate list of free objects. SLOB supports slab merging to minimize
+ * memory usage.
+ *
* SLAB is emulated on top of SLOB by simply calling constructors and
* destructors for every SLAB allocation. Objects are returned with the
- * 4-byte alignment unless the SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag is set, in which
- * case the low-level allocator will fragment blocks to create the proper
