Subject: [PATCH v4 02/16] slab: Remove folio references from __ksize()
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2025 00:09:16 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251113000932.1589073-3-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251113000932.1589073-1-willy@infradead.org>
In the future, we will separate slab, folio and page from each other
and calling virt_to_folio() on an address allocated from slab will
return NULL. Delay the conversion from struct page to struct slab
until we know we're not dealing with a large kmalloc allocation.
There's a minor win for large kmalloc allocations as we avoid the
compound_head() hidden in virt_to_folio().
This deprecates calling ksize() on memory allocated by alloc_pages().
Today it becomes a warning and support will be removed entirely in
the future.
Introduce large_kmalloc_size() to abstract how we represent the size
of a large kmalloc allocation. For now, this is the same as
page_size(), but it will change with separately allocated memdescs.
