CMA的初始化创建
* 默认cma创建(dma_contiguous_default_area),两种方式:
- 通过cmdline传递的参数"cma=",然后在kernel初始化阶段解析参数,并调用start_kernel()->setup_arch()->arm64_memblock_init()->dma_contiguous_reserve()完成创建(android中一般不通过cmdline传递):
static phys_addr_t size_cmdline = -1;
static phys_addr_t base_cmdline;
static phys_addr_t limit_cmdline;
//解析cmdline传递的cma参数
static int __init early_cma(char *p)
{
pr_debug("%s(%s)\n", __func__, p);
size_cmdline = memparse(p, &p);
if (*p != '@')
return 0;
base_cmdline = memparse(p + 1, &p);
if (*p != '-') {
limit_cmdline = base_cmdline + size_cmdline;
return 0;
}
limit_cmdline = memparse(p + 1, &p);
return 0;
}
early_param("cma", early_cma);
- 通过dts中配置cma节点,属性中包含"shared-dma-pool"以及"linux,cma-default",在kernel初始化阶段,通过调用start_kernel()->setup_arch()->arm64_memblock_init()->early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem()->fdt_init_reserved_mem()->__reserved_mem_init_node()完成对默认cma的创建和初始化:
static int __init __reserved_mem_init_node(struct reserved_mem *rmem)
{
extern const struct of_device_id __reservedmem_of_table[];
const struct of_device_id *i;
//__reservedmem_of_table是初始化中的一个section段,通过RESERVEDMEM_OF_DECLARE定义的都会被链接到这个段中
//参考:https://blog.csdn.net/rikeyone/article/details/79975138
for (i = __reservedmem_of_table; i < &__rmem_of_table_sentinel; i++) {
reservedmem_of_init_fn initfn = i->data;
const char *compat = i->compatible;
if (!of_flat_dt_is_compatible(rmem->fdt_node, compat))
continue;
if (initfn(rmem) == 0) {
pr_info("initialized node %s, compatible id %s\n",
rmem->name, compat);
return 0;
}
}
return -ENOENT;
}
//dma-contiguous.c文件中定义了该默认cma的创建回调。
//如果dts中没有配置,那该回调也不会执行。
//参考:https://blog.csdn.net/rikeyone/article/details/79975138
RESERVEDMEM_OF_DECLARE(cma, "shared-dma-pool", rmem_cma_setup);
- 默认cma似乎在好些android平台上都没有创建。
*其他CMA区创建
-
其他CMA区域创建都应该类似默认cma一样,通过RESERVEDMEM_OF_DECLARE接口定义一个结构体变量在__reservedmem_of_table段中,开机启动时就会调用对应的initfn完成初始化,同时还需要在dts中配置对应的属性节点。
-
所有CMA的创建最终都会调用cma_init_reserved_mem()函数:
- 主要从cma全局数组cma_areas中分配一个cma实体并将传递过来的参数用于初始化该cam实体。
- 初始化参数包括,cma的name、起始页框号base_pfn,总共页数count,以及每个bit代表多少个页2^(order_per_bit)。
- 更新全局变量totalcma_pages,记录总的cma页面数量,在meminfo中CmaTotal就是这个值。
int __init cma_init_reserved_mem(phys_addr_t base, phys_addr_t size,
unsigned int order_per_bit,
const char *name,
struct cma **res_cma)
{
struct cma *cma;
phys_addr_t alignment;
/* Sanity checks */
//判断cma数量是否已经满了,因为cma_areas数组指定了系统中总的cma数量,通过内核宏控制
if (cma_area_count == ARRAY_SIZE(cma_areas)) {
pr_err("Not enough slots for CMA reserved regions!\n");
return -ENOSPC;
}
//判断该cma内存区间是否与reversed中的某个区间是交叉的?为什么要这样判断?
if (!size || !memblock_is_region_reserved(base, size))
return -EINVAL;
/* ensure minimal alignment required by mm core */
//对齐方式按pageblock,也就是1024页(4M)
alignment = PAGE_SIZE <<
max_t(unsigned long, MAX_ORDER - 1, pageblock_order);
/* alignment should be aligned with order_per_bit */
//判断对齐方式alignment本身的大小与单个bit表示的内存大小,是否对齐
if (!IS_ALIGNED(alignment >> PAGE_SHIFT, 1 << order_per_bit))
return -EINVAL;
//判断base和size以aligment方式对齐后,得到的值是否还是原来的值,也就是判断base和size是否基于alignment对齐
if (ALIGN(base, alignment) != base || ALIGN(size, alignment) != size)
return -EINVAL;
/*
* Each reserved area must be initialised later, when more kernel
* subsystems (like slab allocator) are available.
*/
//1. memblock是系统最初的内存管理器,分为memory type和reserved type,CMA最开始就属于reserved type
//2. 运行到这里,就表示memblock已经建立,并且buddy还没建立,CMA在buddy前建立OK
//3. CMA建立OK后,接着memblock中的memory type会释放给buddy,reserved type则不会
//4. CMA作为特殊的reserved type,最终通过系统初始化调用cma_init_reserved_areas,将内存归还给buddy
//从cma_areas数组中分配一个cma对象
cma = &cma_areas[cma_area_count];
if (name) {
cma->name = name;
} else {
cma->name = kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "cma%d\n", cma_area_count);
if (!cma->name)
return -ENOMEM;
}
cma->base_pfn = PFN_DOWN(base); //起始页号
cma->count = size >> PAGE_SHIFT; //总共页面数
cma->order_per_bit = order_per_bit; //一个bit代表的阶数
*res_cma = cma;
cma_area_count++;
totalcma_pages += (size / PAGE_SIZE); //totalcma_pages记录总的cma页面数量,在meminfo中CmaTotal就是这个值
return 0;
}
到这里,只是完成对cma内存的保留和初始化,cma区最终还需要释放给buddy。
CMA区域释放给buddy
-
释放也是在kernel初始化过程中,会比cma的创建稍晚一些,是通过cma_init_reserved_areas接口完成的所有cma的初始化并将内存返还给buddy。
- core_initcall(cma_init_reserved_areas)定义在kernel的init段中,通过start_kernel()->rest_init()创建内核线程kernel_init->kernel_init_freeable()->do_basic_setup()->do_initcalls()完成对各个init level的初始化。core init属于level1。
-
cma_init_reserved_areas()函数,遍历当前cma全局数组中已经分配的cma实体,通过调用cma_activate_area函数完成激活初始化,同时将内存释放给buddy:
static int __init cma_init_reserved_areas(void)
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < cma_area_count; i++) {
int ret = cma_activate_area(&cma_areas[i]);
if (ret)
return ret;
}
return 0;
}
core_initcall(cma_init_reserved_areas);
- cma_activate_area()函数:
以pageblock为单位,设置migrate type为MIGRATE_CMA,然后将其整个pageblock包含的页全部释放给buddy,并更新整个系统的可用内存总数
static int __init cma_activate_area(struct cma *cma)
{
int bitmap_size = BITS_TO_LONGS(cma_bitmap_maxno(cma)) * sizeof(long);
unsigned long base_pfn = cma->base_pfn, pfn = base_pfn;
//i代表有多少个page block,一般一个pageblock是1024页
unsigned i = cma->count >> pageblock_order;
struct zone *zone;
//cma也是通过bitmap来管理,每个bit代表多大,由order_per_bit决定。
//默认的cma的order_per_bit为0,一个bit代表2^0个page。
//分配bitmap
cma->bitmap = kzalloc(bitmap_size, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!cma->bitmap)
return -ENOMEM;
WARN_ON_ONCE(!pfn_valid(pfn));
zone = page_zone(pfn_to_page(pfn));
//以pageblock遍历,
do {
unsigned j;
//记录当前pageblock的起始页
base_pfn = pfn;
//判断当前pageblock中的所有页面是否满足要求:合法的页号、都在同一个zone中
for (j = pageblock_nr_pages; j; --j, pfn++) {
WARN_ON_ONCE(!pfn_valid(pfn));
/*
* alloc_contig_range requires the pfn range
* specified to be in the same zone. Make this
* simple by forcing the entire CMA resv range
* to be in the same zone.
*/
if (page_zone(pfn_to_page(pfn)) != zone)
goto not_in_zone;
}
//将当前pageblock初始化并释放给buddy
init_cma_reserved_pageblock(pfn_to_page(base_pfn));
} while (--i);
mutex_init(&cma->lock);
#ifdef CONFIG_CMA_DEBUGFS
INIT_HLIST_HEAD(&cma->mem_head);
spin_lock_init(&cma->mem_head_lock);
#endif
return 0;
not_in_zone:
pr_err("CMA area %s could not be activated\n", cma->name);
kfree(cma->bitmap);
cma->count = 0;
return -EINVAL;
}
- cma_activate_area()->init_cma_reserved_pageblock()函数设置pageblock类型并释放内存给buddy:
void __init init_cma_reserved_pageblock(struct page *page)
{
unsigned i = pageblock_nr_pages;
struct page *p = page;
do {
//清除页描述flag中的PG_Reserved标志位
__ClearPageReserved(p);
//设置page->_refcount = 0
set_page_count(p, 0);
} while (++p, --i);
//设置pageblock的迁移类型为MIGRATE_CMA
set_pageblock_migratetype(page, MIGRATE_CMA);
if (pageblock_order >= MAX_ORDER) {
i = pageblock_nr_pages;
p = page;
do {
set_page_refcounted(p);
__free_pages(p, MAX_ORDER - 1);
p += MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES;
} while (i -= MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES);
} else {
//设置page->_refcount = 1
set_page_refcounted(page);
//释放pages到buddy中,以pageblock释放,order为10
__free_pages(page, pageblock_order);
}
//调整对应zone中的managed_pages可管理页面数,即加上一个pageblock数量
//调整总的内存数量totalram_pages,即加上一个pageblock数量
adjust_managed_page_count(page, pageblock_nr_pages);
}
CMA的分配
- CMA分配通过统一接口cma_alloc函数,会从bitmap中先查找满足要求的连续bit,然后通过alloc_contig_range实现分配,成功后的页面会从buddy总摘出来:
struct page *cma_alloc(struct cma *cma, size_t count, unsigned int align,
gfp_t gfp_mask)
{
unsigned long mask, offset;
unsigned long pfn = -1;
unsigned long start = 0;
unsigned long bitmap_maxno, bitmap_no, bitmap_count;
struct page *page = NULL;
int ret = -ENOMEM;
if (!cma || !cma->count)
return NULL;
pr_debug("%s(cma %p, count %zu, align %d)\n", __func__, (void *)cma,
count, align);
if (!count)
return NULL;
mask = cma_bitmap_aligned_mask(cma, align);
offset = cma_bitmap_aligned_offset(cma, align);
bitmap_maxno = cma_bitmap_maxno(cma);
bitmap_count = cma_bitmap_pages_to_bits(cma, count);
if (bitmap_count > bitmap_maxno)
return NULL;
for (;;) {
mutex_lock(&cma->lock);
//1. 从cma->bitmap中查找连续bitmap_count个为0的bit
bitmap_no = bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off(cma->bitmap,
bitmap_maxno, start, bitmap_count, mask,
offset);
if (bitmap_no >= bitmap_maxno) {
mutex_unlock(&cma->lock);
break;
}
//2. 将查找到的连续bit设置为1,表示内存被分配占用
bitmap_set(cma->bitmap, bitmap_no, bitmap_count);
/*
* It's safe to drop the lock here. We've marked this region for
* our exclusive use. If the migration fails we will take the
* lock again and unmark it.
*/
mutex_unlock(&cma->lock);
//3. 计算分配的起始页的页号
pfn = cma->base_pfn + (bitmap_no << cma->order_per_bit);
mutex_lock(&cma_mutex);
//4. 分配从起始页开始的连续count个页,分配的migrate type为CMA类型
ret = alloc_contig_range(pfn, pfn + count, MIGRATE_CMA,
gfp_mask);
mutex_unlock(&cma_mutex);
//5. 分配成功,就返回起始page
if (ret == 0) {
page = pfn_to_page(pfn);
break;
}
cma_clear_bitmap(cma, pfn, count);
if (ret != -EBUSY)
break;
pr_debug("%s(): memory range at %p is busy, retrying\n",
__func__, pfn_to_page(pfn));
/* try again with a bit different memory target */
start = bitmap_no + mask + 1;
}
trace_cma_alloc(pfn, page, count, align);
if (ret && !(gfp_mask & __GFP_NOWARN)) {
pr_info("%s: alloc failed, req-size: %zu pages, ret: %d\n",
__func__, count, ret);
cma_debug_show_areas(cma);
}
pr_debug("%s(): returned %p\n", __func__, page);
return page;
}
CMA的释放
- 释放操作也很清晰,通过cma_release函数实现,会将页面释放回buddy系统,并将cma的bitmap相应bit清零:
bool cma_release(struct cma *cma, const struct page *pages, unsigned int count)
{
unsigned long pfn;
if (!cma || !pages)
return false;
pr_debug("%s(page %p)\n", __func__, (void *)pages);
pfn = page_to_pfn(pages);
if (pfn < cma->base_pfn || pfn >= cma->base_pfn + cma->count)
return false;
VM_BUG_ON(pfn + count > cma->base_pfn + cma->count);
//释放回buddy
free_contig_range(pfn, count);
//清零bit位,表示对应cma内存可用
cma_clear_bitmap(cma, pfn, count);
trace_cma_release(pfn, pages, count);
return true;
}
