Danilo Krummrich Aug. 1, 2024, 12:02 a.m. UTC
Implement `Allocator` for `Vmalloc`, the kernel's virtually contiguous
allocator, typically used for larger objects, (much) larger than page
size.

All memory allocations made with `Vmalloc` end up in `vrealloc()`.

IIUC, vrealloc() calls __vmalloc_noprof() in allocation case, that is
calling __vmalloc_node_noprof() with align=1. In such a case, how would
vmalloc() guarantee the allocated memory is aligned to layout.align()?

True, good catch. I thought of this a while ago and then forgot to fix it.

Just for clarification, we're always PAGE_SIZE aligned (guaranteed by
__alloc_vmap_area()), which probably would always be sufficient. That's why I
didn't gave it too much attention in the first place and then forgot about it.

However, we indeed do not honor layout.align() if it's larger than PAGE_SIZE.

Another note on that:

My plan for this series was to just fail allocation for alignment requests
larger than PAGE_SIZE. And, if required, address larger alignments in a later
series, since this one is probably big enough already.

However, for `Vmalloc` we could support it right away, since it's trivial. For
`KVmalloc` though it requires a bit more effort.

For consistancy it would probably be better to support alignments larger than
PAGE_SIZE either for `Vmalloc` and `KVmalloc` or neither of those though.

My personal tendency goes a bit more into the direction of picking consistancy.

Any other opinions?

Yeah, this sounds reasonable.

Could you elaborate why it requires a bit more effort? Because
kvrealloc() and kvmalloc() in C don't have a way to specify alignment
requirement? If so, I think a solution to that would be just providing
the K-or-V switch in Rust code, i.e. just `Vmalloc` and `Kmalloc` to
implement `KVmalloc`, which I don't think is a bad idea.

Yes, exactly that.

I really think we should do it in C. Look at all the special cases is
__kvmalloc_node_noprof(): fixup page flags, sanity check the size on kmalloc
failure, fail on certain page flags, etc.

I think we really want to keep all this logic in a single place and not
replicate it on the Rust side.
