2010-10-26mm: add a might_sleep_if() to dma_pool_alloc()Dima Zavin
Buggy drivers (e.g. fsl_udc) could call dma_pool_alloc from atomic context with GFP_KERNEL. In most instances, the first pool_alloc_page call would succeed and the sleeping functions would never be called. This allowed the buggy drivers to slip through the cracks. Add a might_sleep_if() checking for __GFP_WAIT in flags.

2009-06-30dmapools: protect page_list walk in show_pools()Thomas Gleixner
show_pools() walks the page_list of a pool w/o protection against the list modifications in alloc/free. Take pool->lock to avoid stomping into nirvana.

2008-04-28dmapool: enable debugging for CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON tooAndi Kleen
Previously it was only enabled for CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB. Not hooked into the slub runtime debug configuration, so you currently only get it with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON, not plain CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG Acked-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-12-04pool: Improve memory usage for devices which can't cross boundariesMatthew Wilcox
The previous implementation simply refused to allocate more than a boundary's worth of data from an entire page. Some users didn't know this, so specified things like SMP_CACHE_BYTES, not realising the horrible waste of memory that this was. It's fairly easy to correct this problem, just by ensuring we don't cross a boundary within a page. This even helps drivers like EHCI (which can't cross a 4k boundary) on machines with larger page sizes. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: David S.

2007-12-04Change dmapool free block managementMatthew Wilcox
Use a list of free blocks within a page instead of using a bitmap. Update documentation to reflect this. As well as being a slight reduction in memory allocation, locked ops and lines of code, it speeds up a transaction processing benchmark by 0.4%. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>
2007-12-04dmapool: Tidy up includes and add commentsMatthew Wilcox
We were missing a copyright statement and license, so add GPLv2, David Brownell's copyright and my copyright. The asm/io.h include was superfluous, but we were missing a few other necessary includes. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com>
2007-12-04dmapool: Validate parameters to dma_pool_createMatthew Wilcox
Check that 'align' is a power of two, like the API specifies. Align 'size' to 'align' correctly -- the current code has an off-by-one. The ALIGN macro in kernel.h doesn't. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-12-04Avoid taking waitqueue lock in dmapoolMatthew Wilcox
With one trivial change (taking the lock slightly earlier on wakeup from schedule), all uses of the waitq are under the pool lock, so we can use the locked (or __) versions of the wait queue functions, and avoid the extra spinlock.
