- zone_large_init() stays pretty much the same.
- zone_small_init() will try to stash the slab header in the slab page
being allocated if the amount of calculated wasted space is less
than UMA_MAX_WASTE (for both the UMA_ZONE_REFCNT case and regular
case). If the amount of wasted space is >= UMA_MAX_WASTE, then
UMA_ZONE_OFFPAGE will be set and the slab header will be allocated
separately for better use of space.
- uma_startup() calculates the maximum ipers required in offpage slabs
(so that the offpage slab header zone(s) can be sized accordingly).
The algorithm used to calculate this replaces the old calculation
(which only happened to work coincidentally). We now iterate over
possible object sizes, starting from the smallest one, until we
determine that wastedspace calculated in zone_small_init() might
end up being greater than UMA_MAX_WASTE, at which point we use the
found object size to compute the maximum possible ipers. The
reason this works is because:
- wastedspace versus objectsize is a see-saw function with
local minima all equal to zero and local maxima growing
directly proportioned to objectsize. This implies that
for objects up to or equal a certain objectsize, the see-saw
remains entirely below UMA_MAX_WASTE, so for those objectsizes
it is impossible to ever go OFFPAGE for slab headers.
- ipers (items-per-slab) versus objectsize is an inversely
proportional function which falls off very quickly (very large
for small objectsizes).
- To determine the maximum ipers we'll ever need from OFFPAGE
slab headers we first find the largest objectsize for which
we are guaranteed to not go offpage for and use it to compute
ipers (as though we were offpage). Since the only objectsizes
allowed to go offpage are bigger than the found objectsize,
and since ipers vs objectsize is inversely proportional (and
monotonically decreasing), then we are guaranteed that the
ipers computed is always >= what we will ever need in offpage
slab headers.
- Define UMA_FRITM_SZ and UMA_FRITMREF_SZ to be the actual (possibly
padded) size of each freelist index so that offset calculations are
fixed.
This might fix weird data corruption problems and certainly allows
ARM to now boot to at least single-user (via simulator).
Tested on i386 UP by me.

Tested on ARM simulator to single-user by cognet.
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
