Re: [RFC][PATCH v3 09/22] mm, s390: add gfp flags variant of pud,pte, and pte allocations

From: Prasad Joshi
Date: Fri Mar 18 2011 - 15:56:12 EST



Generic changes
- Added function __crst_table_alloc() which is similar to crst_table_alloc()
but accepts an extra argument gfp_t. The function uses given allocation
flag to allocate pages.

- The function crst_table_alloc() has been modified to call
__crst_table_alloc() and pass GFP_KERNEL allocation flag.

- Added a function __page_table_alloc() to allocate page table entries. This
function is allows caller to specify the page allocation flag. The
allocation flag is then passed to alloc_page(). The rest of the function is
copy of the original page_table_alloc().

- The function page_table_alloc() is modified to call __page_table_alloc()
and pass GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_REPEAT allocation flags.

changes for 32 (31) bit architecture (s390)
- Added macros __pud_alloc_one, __pmd_alloc_one which are similar to
pud_alloc_one and pmd_alloc_one respectively, but has an extra argument
for gfp_t.

changes for 64 bit architecture (s390x)
- Added __pud_alloc_one() allow caller to pass the memory allocation flag.
The function passes the allocation flag to __crst_table_alloc(). The rest
of the function is copy of crst_table_alloc().

- The function pud_alloc_one() is modified to call __pud_alloc_one() and
pass GFP_KERNEL allocation flag.

- The similar changes are performed for pmd allocations

- Added marco __pte_alloc_one_kernel() to accept additional argument gfp_t.
This argument is then passed to __page_table_alloc() to allocate the page
table entry.

- Modified pte_alloc_one_kernel() to call __pte_alloc_one_kernel() passing
GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_REPEAT allocation flags.

- The changes for both architectures help in fixing Bug 30702
