X-Received-From: 162.221.156.55 Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 3/3] xen-block: avoid repeated memory allocation X-BeenThere: qemu-devel@nongnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.21 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Cc: Kevin Wolf , Stefano Stabellini , Tim Smith , Max Reitz , Paul Durrant , Stefan Hajnoczi , Anthony Perard Errors-To: qemu-devel-bounces+patchwork-qemu-devel=patchwork.kernel.org@nongnu.org Sender: "Qemu-devel" X-Virus-Scanned: ClamAV using ClamSMTP From: Tim Smith The xen-block dataplane currently allocates memory to hold the data for each request as that request is used, and frees it afterwards. Because it requires page-aligned blocks, this interacts poorly with non-page- aligned allocations and balloons the heap. Instead, allocate the maximum possible buffer size required for the protocol, which is BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST (currently 11) pages when the request structure is created, and keep that buffer until it is destroyed. Since the requests are re-used via a free list, this should actually improve memory usage. Signed-off-by: Tim Smith Re-based and commit comment adjusted.
