103 * selecting the appropriate general cache at compile time.
105 * Allocators must define at least:
107 * kmem_cache_alloc()
108 * __kmalloc()
109 * kmalloc()
111 * Those wishing to support NUMA must also define:
113 * kmem_cache_alloc_node()
114 * kmalloc_node()
116 * See each allocator definition file for additional comments and
117 * implementation notes.

128 * kcalloc - allocate memory for an array. The memory is set to zero.
129 * @n: number of elements.
130 * @size: element size.
131 * @flags: the type of memory to allocate.
133 * The @flags argument may be one of:
135 * %GFP_USER - Allocate memory on behalf of user. May sleep.
137 * %GFP_KERNEL - Allocate normal kernel ram. May sleep.
139 * %GFP_ATOMIC - Allocation will not sleep. May use emergency pools.
140 * For example, use this inside interrupt handlers.
142 * %GFP_HIGHUSER - Allocate pages from high memory.
144 * %GFP_NOIO - Do not do any I/O at all while trying to get memory.
146 * %GFP_NOFS - Do not make any fs calls while trying to get memory.
148 * %GFP_NOWAIT - Allocation will not sleep.
150 * %GFP_THISNODE - Allocate node-local memory only.
152 * %GFP_DMA - Allocation suitable for DMA.
153 * Should only be used for kmalloc() caches. Otherwise, use a
154 * slab created with SLAB_DMA.
156 * Also it is possible to set different flags by OR'ing
157 * in one or more of the following additional @flags:
159 * %__GFP_COLD - Request cache-cold pages instead of
160 * trying to return cache-warm pages.
162 * %__GFP_HIGH - This allocation has high priority and may use emergency pools.
164 * %__GFP_NOFAIL - Indicate that this allocation is in no way allowed to fail
165 * (think twice before using).
167 * %__GFP_NORETRY - If memory is not immediately available,
168 * then give up at once.
170 * %__GFP_NOWARN - If allocation fails, don't issue any warnings.
172 * %__GFP_REPEAT - If allocation fails initially, try once more before failing.
174 * There are other flags available as well, but these are not intended
175 * for general use, and so are not documented here. For a full list of
176 * potential flags, always refer to linux/gfp.h.
