[PATCH net-next v7 08/15] mm: page_frag: reuse existing space for 'size' and 'pfmemalloc'

From: Yunsheng Lin
Date: Fri Jun 07 2024 - 08:44:41 EST


Currently there is one 'struct page_frag' for every 'struct
sock' and 'struct task_struct', we are about to replace the
'struct page_frag' with 'struct page_frag_cache' for them.
Before begin the replacing, we need to ensure the size of
'struct page_frag_cache' is not bigger than the size of
'struct page_frag', as there may be tens of thousands of
'struct sock' and 'struct task_struct' instances in the
system.

By or'ing the page order & pfmemalloc with lower bits of
'va' instead of using 'u16' or 'u32' for page size and 'u8'
for pfmemalloc, we are able to avoid 3 or 5 bytes space waste.
And page address & pfmemalloc & order is unchanged for the
same page in the same 'page_frag_cache' instance, it makes
sense to fit them together.

Also, it is better to replace 'offset' with 'remaining', which
is the remaining size for the cache in a 'page_frag_cache'
instance, we are able to do a single 'fragsz > remaining'
checking for the case of cache not being enough, which should be
the fast path if we ensure size is zoro when 'va' == NULL by
memset'ing 'struct page_frag_cache' in page_frag_cache_init()
and page_frag_cache_drain().

After this patch, the size of 'struct page_frag_cache' should be
the same as the size of 'struct page_frag'.
