rcu: Introduce single argument kvfree_rcu() interface
Make kvfree_rcu() capable of freeing objects that will not embed an rcu_head within it. This saves storage overhead in such objects. Reclaiming headless objects this way requires only a single argument (pointer to the object). After this patch, there are two ways to use kvfree_rcu(): a) kvfree_rcu(ptr, rhf); struct X { struct rcu_head rhf; unsigned char data[100]; }; void *ptr = kvmalloc(sizeof(struct X), GFP_KERNEL); if (ptr) kvfree_rcu(ptr, rhf); b) kvfree_rcu(ptr); void *ptr = kvmalloc(some_bytes, GFP_KERNEL); if (ptr) kvfree_rcu(ptr); Note that the headless usage (example b) can only be used in a code that can sleep. This is enforced by the CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP option.

* kvfree_rcu() - kvfree an object after a grace period.
|
||||
* @ptr: pointer to kvfree
|
||||
* @rhf: the name of the struct rcu_head within the type of @ptr.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Same as kfree_rcu(), just simple alias.
|
||||
* This macro consists of one or two arguments and it is
|
||||
* based on whether an object is head-less or not. If it
|
||||
* has a head then a semantic stays the same as it used
|
||||
* to be before:
|
||||
*
|
||||
* kvfree_rcu(ptr, rhf);
|
||||
*
|
||||
* where @ptr is a pointer to kvfree(), @rhf is the name
|
||||
* of the rcu_head structure within the type of @ptr.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* When it comes to head-less variant, only one argument
|
||||
* is passed and that is just a pointer which has to be
|
||||
* freed after a grace period. Therefore the semantic is
|
||||
*
|
||||
* kvfree_rcu(ptr);
|
||||
*
|
||||
* where @ptr is a pointer to kvfree().
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Please note, head-less way of freeing is permitted to
|
||||
* use from a context that has to follow might_sleep()
|
||||
* annotation. Otherwise, please switch and embed the
|
||||
* rcu_head structure within the type of @ptr.
