mm/percpu.c: use memblock apis for early memory allocations

2014-01-22T00:19:47+00:00

Switch to memblock interfaces for early memory allocator instead of
bootmem allocator.  No functional change in beahvior than what it is in
current code from bootmem users points of view.

Archs already converted to NO_BOOTMEM now directly use memblock
interfaces instead of bootmem wrappers build on top of memblock.  And
the archs which still uses bootmem, these new apis just fallback to
exiting bootmem APIs.

percpu: fix bootmem error handling in pcpu_page_first_chunk()

2013-09-23T14:51:45+00:00

If memory allocation of in pcpu_embed_first_chunk() fails, the
allocated memory is not released correctly. In the release loop also
the non-allocated elements are released which leads to the following
kernel BUG on systems with very little memory:

To fix the problem now only allocated elements are released. This then
leads to the correct kernel panic:

percpu: make pcpu_free_chunk() use pcpu_mem_free() instead of kfree()

2012-10-29T15:49:47+00:00

commit 099a19d9('allow limited allocation before slab is online') made
pcpu_alloc_chunk() use pcpu_mem_zalloc() but forgot to update
pcpu_free_chunk() accordingly.  This doesn't cause any immediate
problema, but fix it for consistency.

kmemleak: Fix the kmemleak tracking of the percpu areas with !SMP

2012-05-09T17:13:29+00:00

Kmemleak tracks the percpu allocations via a specific API and the
originally allocated areas must be removed from kmemleak (via
kmemleak_free). The code was already doing this for SMP systems.

percpu: pcpu_embed_first_chunk() should free unused parts after all allocs are complete

2012-05-09T17:08:16+00:00

pcpu_embed_first_chunk() allocates memory for each node, copies percpu
data and frees unused portions of it before proceeding to the next
group.  This assumes that allocations for different nodes doesn't
overlap; however, depending on memory topology, the bootmem allocator
may end up allocating memory from a different node than the requested
one which may overlap with the portion freed from one of the previous
percpu areas.  This leads to percpu groups for different nodes
overlapping which is a serious bug.

This patch separates out copy & partial free from the allocation loop
such that all allocations are complete before partial frees happen.

This also fixes overlapping frees which could happen on allocation
failure path - out_free_areas path frees whole groups but the groups
could have portions freed at that point.
