From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Message-Id: <20081110133840.983317000@suse.de> References: <20081110133515.011510000@suse.de> Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2008 00:35:20 +1100 From: npiggin@suse.de Subject: [patch 5/7] mm: vmalloc improve vmallocinfo Content-Disposition: inline; filename=mm-vmalloc-vmallocinfo-improve.patch Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org From: Glauber Costa Return-Path: To: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org, glommer@redhat.com List-ID: If we do that, output of files like /proc/vmallocinfo will show things like "vmalloc_32", "vmalloc_user", or whomever the caller was as the caller. This info is not as useful as the real caller of the allocation. So, proposal is to call __vmalloc_node node directly, with matching parameters to save the caller information Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin --- mm/vmalloc.c | 12 ++++++++---- 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/mm/vmalloc.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/mm/vmalloc.c +++ linux-2.6/mm/vmalloc.c @@ -1356,7 +1356,8 @@ void *vmalloc_user(unsigned long size) struct vm_struct *area; void *ret; - ret = __vmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM | __GFP_ZERO, PAGE_KERNEL); + ret = __vmalloc_node(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM | __GFP_ZERO, + PAGE_KERNEL, -1, __builtin_return_address(0)); if (ret) { area = find_vm_area(ret); area->flags |= VM_USERMAP; @@ -1401,7 +1402,8 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(vmalloc_node); void *vmalloc_exec(unsigned long size) { - return __vmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM, PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC); + return __vmalloc_node(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM, PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC, + -1, __builtin_return_address(0)); } #if defined(CONFIG_64BIT) && defined(CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32) @@ -1421,7 +1423,8 @@ void *vmalloc_exec(unsigned long size) */ void *vmalloc_32(unsigned long size) { - return __vmalloc(size, GFP_VMALLOC32, PAGE_KERNEL); + return __vmalloc_node(size, GFP_VMALLOC32, PAGE_KERNEL, + -1, __builtin_return_address(0)); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(vmalloc_32); @@ -1437,7 +1440,8 @@ void *vmalloc_32_user(unsigned long size struct vm_struct *area; void *ret; - ret = __vmalloc(size, GFP_VMALLOC32 | __GFP_ZERO, PAGE_KERNEL); + ret = __vmalloc_node(size, GFP_VMALLOC32 | __GFP_ZERO, PAGE_KERNEL, + -1, __builtin_return_address(0)); if (ret) { area = find_vm_area(ret); area->flags |= VM_USERMAP; -- -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
