Remove malloc_domain(9) and most other _domain KPIs added in r327900. The new functions allow the caller to specify a general NUMA domain selection policy, rather than specifically requesting an allocation from a specific domain. The latter policy tends to interact poorly with M_WAITOK, resulting in situations where a caller is blocked indefinitely because the specified domain is depleted. Most existing consumers of the _domain KPIs are converted to instead use a DOMAINSET_PREF() policy, in which we fall back to other domains to satisfy the allocation request. This change also defines a set of DOMAINSET_FIXED() policies, which only permit allocations from the specified domain.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
function allocates
|
|
.Fa size
|
|
bytes of contiguous physical memory that is aligned to
|
|
.Fa alignment
|
|
bytes, and which does not cross a boundary of
|
|
.Fa boundary
|
|
bytes.
|
|
If successful, the allocation will reside between physical addresses
|
|
.Fa low
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa high .
|
|
The returned pointer points to a wired kernel virtual
|
|
address range of
|
|
.Fa size
|
|
bytes allocated from the kernel virtual address (KVA) map.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc_domainset
|
|
variant allows the caller to additionally specify a
|
|
.Xr numa 4
|
|
domain selection policy.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr domainset 9
|
|
for some example policies.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa flags
|
|
parameter modifies
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc Ns 's
|
|
behaviour as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Dv M_ZERO
|
|
Causes the allocated physical memory to be zero filled.
|
|
.It Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
Causes
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
to return
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
if the request cannot be immediately fulfilled due to resource shortage.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Other flags (if present) are ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigfree
|
|
function deallocates memory allocated by a previous call to
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
or
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc_domainset .
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
function does not sleep waiting for memory resources to be freed up,
|
|
but instead actively reclaims pages before giving up.
|
|
However, unless
|
|
.Dv M_NOWAIT
|
|
is specified, it may select a page for reclamation that must first be
|
|
written to backing storage, causing it to sleep.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigfree
|
|
function does not accept
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
as an address input, unlike
|
|
.Xr free 9 .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
function returns a kernel virtual address if allocation succeeds,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
void *p;
|
|
p = contigmalloc(8192, M_DEVBUF, M_ZERO, 0, (1L << 22),
|
|
32 * 1024, 1024 * 1024);
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Ask for 8192 bytes of zero-filled memory residing between physical
|
|
address 0 and 4194303 inclusive, aligned to a 32K boundary and not
|
|
crossing a 1M address boundary.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn contigmalloc
|
|
function will panic if
|
|
.Fa size
|
|
is zero, or if
|
|
.Fa alignment
|
|
or
|
|
.Fa boundary
|
|
is not a power of two.
