/** * DOC: Reclaim modifiers * * Reclaim modifiers * ----------------- * Please note that all the following flags are only applicable to sleepable * allocations (e.g. %GFP_NOWAIT and %GFP_ATOMIC will ignore them). * * %__GFP_IO can start physical IO. * * %__GFP_FS can call down to the low-level FS. Clearing the flag avoids the * allocator recursing into the filesystem which might already be holding * locks. * * %__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM indicates that the caller may enter direct reclaim. * This flag can be cleared to avoid unnecessary delays when a fallback * option is available. * * %__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM indicates that the caller wants to wake kswapd when * the low watermark is reached and have it reclaim pages until the high * watermark is reached. A caller may wish to clear this flag when fallback * options are available and the reclaim is likely to disrupt the system. The * canonical example is THP allocation where a fallback is cheap but * reclaim/compaction may cause indirect stalls. * * %__GFP_RECLAIM is shorthand to allow/forbid both direct and kswapd reclaim. * * The default allocator behavior depends on the request size. We have a concept * of so-called costly allocations (with order > %PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER). * !costly allocations are too essential to fail so they are implicitly * non-failing by default (with some exceptions like OOM victims might fail so * the caller still has to check for failures) while costly requests try to be * not disruptive and back off even without invoking the OOM killer. * The following three modifiers might be used to override some of these * implicit rules. Please note that all of them must be used along with * %__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM flag. * * %__GFP_NORETRY: The VM implementation will try only very lightweight * memory direct reclaim to get some memory under memory pressure (thus * it can sleep). It will avoid disruptive actions like OOM killer. The * caller must handle the failure which is quite likely to happen under * heavy memory pressure. The flag is suitable when failure can easily be * handled at small cost, such as reduced throughput. * * %__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL: The VM implementation will retry memory reclaim * procedures that have previously failed if there is some indication * that progress has been made elsewhere. It can wait for other * tasks to attempt high-level approaches to freeing memory such as * compaction (which removes fragmentation) and page-out. * There is still a definite limit to the number of retries, but it is * a larger limit than with %__GFP_NORETRY. * Allocations with this flag may fail, but only when there is * genuinely little unused memory. While these allocations do not * directly trigger the OOM killer, their failure indicates that * the system is likely to need to use the OOM killer soon. The * caller must handle failure, but can reasonably do so by failing * a higher-level request, or completing it only in a much less * efficient manner. * If the allocation does fail, and the caller is in a position to * free some non-essential memory, doing so could benefit the system * as a whole. * * %__GFP_NOFAIL: The VM implementation _must_ retry infinitely: the caller * cannot handle allocation failures. The allocation could block * indefinitely but will never return with failure. Testing for * failure is pointless. * It _must_ be blockable and used together with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM. * It should _never_ be used in non-sleepable contexts. * New users should be evaluated carefully (and the flag should be * used only when there is no reasonable failure policy) but it is * definitely preferable to use the flag rather than opencode endless * loop around allocator. * Allocating pages from the buddy with __GFP_NOFAIL and order > 1 is * discouraged.

/** * DOC: Useful GFP flag combinations * * Useful GFP flag combinations * ---------------------------- * * Useful GFP flag combinations that are commonly used. It is recommended * that subsystems start with one of these combinations and then set/clear * %__GFP_FOO flags as necessary. * * %GFP_ATOMIC users can not sleep and need the allocation to succeed. A lower * watermark is applied to allow access to "atomic reserves". * The current implementation doesn't support NMI, nor contexts that disable * preemption under PREEMPT_RT. This includes raw_spin_lock() and plain * preempt_disable() - see "Memory allocation" in * Documentation/core-api/real-time/differences.rst for more info. * * %GFP_KERNEL is typical for kernel-internal allocations. The caller requires * %ZONE_NORMAL or a lower zone for direct access but can direct reclaim. * * %GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT is the same as GFP_KERNEL, except the allocation is * accounted to the active cgroup context. * * %GFP_NOWAIT is for kernel allocations that should not stall for direct * reclaim, start physical IO or use any filesystem callback. It is very * likely to fail to allocate memory, even for very small allocations. * The same restrictions on calling contexts apply as for %GFP_ATOMIC. * * %GFP_NOIO will use direct reclaim to discard clean pages or slab pages * that do not require the starting of any physical IO. * Please try to avoid using this flag directly and instead use * memalloc_noio_{save,restore} to mark the whole scope which cannot * perform any IO with a short explanation why. All allocation requests * will inherit GFP_NOIO implicitly. * * %GFP_NOFS will use direct reclaim but will not use any filesystem interfaces. * Please try to avoid using this flag directly and instead use * memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} to mark the whole scope which cannot/shouldn't * recurse into the FS layer with a short explanation why. All allocation * requests will inherit GFP_NOFS implicitly. * * %GFP_USER is for userspace allocations that also need to be directly * accessibly by the kernel or hardware. It is typically used by hardware * for buffers that are mapped to userspace (e.g. graphics) that hardware * still must DMA to. cpuset limits are enforced for these allocations. * * %GFP_DMA exists for historical reasons and should be avoided where possible. * The flags indicates that the caller requires that the lowest zone be * used (%ZONE_DMA or 16M on x86-64). Ideally, this would be removed but * it would require careful auditing as some users really require it and * others use the flag to avoid lowmem reserves in %ZONE_DMA and treat the * lowest zone as a type of emergency reserve. * * %GFP_DMA32 is similar to %GFP_DMA except that the caller requires a 32-bit * address. Note that kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32) does not return DMA32 memory * because the DMA32 kmalloc cache array is not implemented. * (Reason: there is no such user in kernel). * * %GFP_HIGHUSER is for userspace allocations that may be mapped to userspace, * do not need to be directly accessible by the kernel but that cannot * move once in use. An example may be a hardware allocation that maps * data directly into userspace but has no addressing limitations. * * %GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE is for userspace allocations that the kernel does not * need direct access to but can use kmap() when access is required. They * are expected to be movable via page reclaim or page migration. Typically, * pages on the LRU would also be allocated with %GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE. * * %GFP_TRANSHUGE and %GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT are used for THP allocations. They * are compound allocations that will generally fail quickly if memory is not * available and will not wake kswapd/kcompactd on failure. The _LIGHT * version does not attempt reclaim/compaction at all and is by default used * in page fault path, while the non-light is used by khugepaged. */#define GFP_ATOMIC (__GFP_HIGH|__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM)#define GFP_KERNEL (__GFP_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS)#define GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT (GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ACCOUNT)#define GFP_NOWAIT (__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM | __GFP_NOWARN)#define GFP_NOIO (__GFP_RECLAIM)#define GFP_NOFS (__GFP_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO)#define GFP_USER (__GFP_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS | __GFP_HARDWALL)#define GFP_DMA __GFP_DMA#define GFP_DMA32 __GFP_DMA32#define GFP_HIGHUSER (GFP_USER | __GFP_HIGHMEM)#define GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE (GFP_HIGHUSER | __GFP_MOVABLE | __GFP_SKIP_KASAN)#define GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT ((GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE | __GFP_COMP | \ __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NOWARN) & ~__GFP_RECLAIM)#define GFP_TRANSHUGE (GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT | __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM)
