2 * SLOB Allocator: Simple List Of Blocks
4 * Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> 12/30/03
6 * NUMA support by Paul Mundt, 2007.
8 * How SLOB works:
10 * The core of SLOB is a traditional K&R style heap allocator, with
11 * support for returning aligned objects. The granularity of this
12 * allocator is as little as 2 bytes, however typically most architectures
13 * will require 4 bytes on 32-bit and 8 bytes on 64-bit.
15 * The slob heap is a set of linked list of pages from alloc_pages(),
16 * and within each page, there is a singly-linked list of free blocks
17 * (slob_t). The heap is grown on demand. To reduce fragmentation,
18 * heap pages are segregated into three lists, with objects less than
19 * 256 bytes, objects less than 1024 bytes, and all other objects.
21 * Allocation from heap involves first searching for a page with
22 * sufficient free blocks (using a next-fit-like approach) followed by
23 * a first-fit scan of the page. Deallocation inserts objects back
24 * into the free list in address order, so this is effectively an
25 * address-ordered first fit.
27 * Above this is an implementation of kmalloc/kfree. Blocks returned
28 * from kmalloc are prepended with a 4-byte header with the kmalloc size.
29 * If kmalloc is asked for objects of PAGE_SIZE or larger, it calls
30 * alloc_pages() directly, allocating compound pages so the page order
31 * does not have to be separately tracked, and also stores the exact
32 * allocation size in page->private so that it can be used to accurately
33 * provide ksize(). These objects are detected in kfree() because slob_page()
34 * is false for them.
36 * SLAB is emulated on top of SLOB by simply calling constructors and
37 * destructors for every SLAB allocation. Objects are returned with the
38 * 4-byte alignment unless the SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN flag is set, in which
39 * case the low-level allocator will fragment blocks to create the proper
40 * alignment. Again, objects of page-size or greater are allocated by
41 * calling alloc_pages(). As SLAB objects know their size, no separate
42 * size bookkeeping is necessary and there is essentially no allocation
43 * space overhead, and compound pages aren't needed for multi-page
44 * allocations.
46 * NUMA support in SLOB is fairly simplistic, pushing most of the real
47 * logic down to the page allocator, and simply doing the node accounting
48 * on the upper levels. In the event that a node id is explicitly
49 * provided, alloc_pages_node() with the specified node id is used
50 * instead. The common case (or when the node id isn't explicitly provided)
51 * will default to the current node, as per numa_node_id().
53 * Node aware pages are still inserted in to the global freelist, and
54 * these are scanned for by matching against the node id encoded in the
55 * page flags. As a result, block allocations that can be satisfied from
56 * the freelist will only be done so on pages residing on the same node,
57 * in order to prevent random node placement.

73 * slob_block has a field 'units', which indicates size of block if +ve,
74 * or offset of next block if -ve (in SLOB_UNITs).
76 * Free blocks of size 1 unit simply contain the offset of the next block.
77 * Those with larger size contain their size in the first SLOB_UNIT of
78 * memory, and the offset of the next free block in the second SLOB_UNIT.
