[PATCH 02/25] slab: make kmalloc_index() return "unsigned int"

[Alexey Dobriyan]

kmalloc_index() return index into an array of kmalloc kmem caches,
therefore should be unsigned.

Space savings with SLUB on trimmed down .config:

	add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 6/56 up/down: 85/-557 (-472)

	slab_order                                   204       -    -204

This patch start a series of converting SLUB (mostly) to "unsigned int".
1) Most integers in the code are in fact unsigned entities: array indexes,
   lengths, buffer sizes, allocation orders. It is therefore better to use
   unsigned variables

2) Some integers in the code are either "size_t" or "unsigned long"
   for no reason.

   size_t usually comes from people trying to maintain type correctness
   and figuring out that "sizeof" operator returns size_t or memset/memcpy
   takes size_t so should everything passed to it.

   However the number of 4GB+ objects in the kernel is very small.
   Most, if not all, dynamically allocated objects with kmalloc() or
   kmem_cache_create() aren't actually big. Maintaining wide types
   doesn't do anything.

   64-bit ops are bigger than 32-bit on our beloved x86_64,
   so try to not use 64-bit where it isn't necessary
   (read: everywhere where integers are integers not pointers)

3) in case of SLAB allocators, there are additional limitations
   *) page->inuse, page->objects are only 16-/15-bit,
   *) cache size was always 32-bit
   *) slab orders are small, order 20 is needed to go 64-bit on x86_64
      (PAGE_SIZE << order)

Basically everything is 32-bit except kmalloc(1ULL<<32) which gets shortcut
through page allocator.

[PATCH 03/25] slab: make kmalloc_size() return "unsigned int"

[Alexey Dobriyan]

kmalloc_size() derives size of kmalloc cache from internal index,
which can't be negative.

Propagate unsignedness a bit.

[PATCH 04/25] slab: make create_kmalloc_cache() work with 32-bit sizes

[Alexey Dobriyan]

KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE is 32-bit so is the largest kmalloc cache size.

[PATCH 06/25] slab: make kmem_cache_create() work with 32-bit sizes

[Alexey Dobriyan]

struct kmem_cache::size and ::align were always 32-bit.

Out of curiosity I created 4GB kmem_cache, it oopsed with division by 0.
kmem_cache_create(1UL<<32+1) created 1-byte cache as expected.

size_t doesn't work and never did.

All those small numbers are reverse indexes into kmalloc caches array
and can't be negative.

On x86_64 "unsigned int = fls()" can drop CDQE instruction:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-2 (-2)
	Function                                     old     new   delta

[PATCH 19/25] slab: make kmem_cache_flags accept 32-bit object size

[Alexey Dobriyan]

Now that all sizes are properly typed, propagate "unsigned int" down
the callgraph.

[PATCH 20/25] kasan: make kasan_cache_create() work with 32-bit slab cache sizes

[Alexey Dobriyan]

If SLAB doesn't support 4GB+ kmem caches (it never did), KASAN should not
do it as well.

[PATCH 22/25] slub: make slab_index() return unsigned int

[Alexey Dobriyan]

slab_index() returns index of an object within a slab
which is at most u15 (or u16?).

Iterators additionally guarantee that "p >= addr".

[PATCH 23/25] slub: make struct kmem_cache_order_objects::x unsigned int

[Alexey Dobriyan]

struct kmem_cache_order_objects is for mixing order and number of objects,
and orders aren't bit enough to warrant 64-bit width.

Propagate unsignedness down so that everything fits.

!!! Patch assumes that "PAGE_SIZE << order" doesn't overflow. !!!

That changes with large base page size on power and ARM64 f.e. but then
we do not want to encourage larger allocations through slab anyways.

Ok SLABs maximum allocation size is limited to 32M (see
include/linux/slab.h:

#define KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH      ((MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) <= 25 ? \
                                (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT - 1) : 25)

And SLUB/SLOB pass all larger requests to the page allocator anyways.

They are useful since you typically pass sizeof( < whatever > ) as a
parameter to kmem_cache_create(). Passing those values onto other

Its not so simple. Please verify that the edge cases of all object size /
alignment etc calculations are doable with 32 bit entities first.

And size_t makes sense as a parameter.

Maybe make it unsigned char instead of unsigned int in case there's

PAGE_SIZE could be a couple of megs on some platforms (256 or so on
Itanium/PowerPC???) . So what are the worst case scenarios here?

I think both order and # object should fit in a 32 bit number.

A page with 256M size and 4 byte objects would have 64M objects.

Sure, but:

struct foo {
	int n;
	char *p;
};
int f(unsigned int x);

int g(void)
{
	return f(sizeof(struct foo));
}

gives:

   0:   bf 10 00 00 00          mov    $0x10,%edi
   5:   e9 00 00 00 00          jmpq   a <g+0xa>

Changing the prototype to "int f(unsigned long x)" produces _exactly the
same assembly_.  Why?  Because mov to %edi will zero out the upper 32-bits
of %rdi.  I consider it one of the flaws in the x86 instruction set that
mov %di doesn't zero out the upper 16 bits of %edi (and correspondingly
the upper 48 bits of %rdi), as it'd save an awful lot of bytes in the
instruction stream by replacing 32-bit constants with 16-bit constants.

There's just no difference between these two.  Unless you want to talk
about a structure exceeding 4GB in size, and then I'm afraid we have
bigger problems.

:-)

Christoph, using "unsigned int" should be default for kernel really.

As was noted earlier it doesn't matter for constants as x86_64 clears
upper half of a register. But it matters for sizes which aren't known
at compile time.

I've looked at a lot of places where size_t is used.
There is a certain degree of "type correctness" when people try to keep
type as much as possible. It works until first multiplication.

	int n;
	size_t len = sizeof(struct foo0) + n * sizeof(struct foo);

Most likely MOVSX or CDQE will be generated which is not the case
if everything is "unsigned int".

Generally, on x86_64,

	uint32_t > uint64_t > uint16_t
	uint8_t	 >

uint64_t adds REX prefix.
uint16_t additionally adds 66 prefix

uint8_t doesn't add anything but it is suboptimal on embedded archs
which emit "& 0xff" and thus should be used only for trimming memory
usage.

Additionally,

	unsigned int > int

as it is easy for compiler to lose track of value range and generate
size extensions.

There is only one exception, namely, when pointers are mixed with
integers:

	int n;
	void *p = p0 + n;

Quite often, gcc generates bigger code when types are made unsigned.
I don't quite understand how it thinks, but overall code will be smaller
if every signed type is made into unsigned.

Lokks like nothing except ->red_left_pad qualifies for uint8_t.

I see this email in public archives, but not in my mailbox :-\

Anyway,

I think the answer is in fact simple.

1)
"int size" proves that 4GB+ caches were always broken both on SLUB
and SLAB. I could audit calculate_sizes() and friends but why bother
if create_cache() already truncated everything.

You're writing:

	that the edge cases of all object size ...
	... are doable with 32 bit entities

AS IF they were doable with 64-bit. They weren't.

2)
Dynamically allocated kernel data structures are in fact small.
I know of "struct kvm_vcpu", it is 20KB on my machine and it's
the biggest.

kmalloc is limited to 64MB, after that it fallbacks to page allocator.
Which means that some huge structure cache must be created by cache or
not affected by conversion as it still falls back to page allocator.

3)
->size and ->align were signed ints, making them unsigned makes
overflows twice as unlikely :^)

> And size_t makes sense as a parameter.

size_t doesn't make sense for kernel as 4GB+ objects are few and far
between.

I remember such patches could shrink SLUB by ~1KB. SLUB is 30KB total.
So it is 2-3% reduction simply by not using "unsigned long" and "size_t"
and using 32-bit arithmetic.

Userspace shifted to size_t, people copy, it bloats kernel for no reason.

PowerPC is 256KB, IA64 is 64KB.

So "PAGE_SIZE << order" overflows if order is 14 (or 13 if signed int
slips in somewhere. Highest safe order is 12, which should be enough.

When was the last time you saw 2GB slab?
It never happenes as costly order is 3(?).

Oh gosh. More email trouble with routing via comcast.

The problem is that intermediate results in calculations may exceed the
int range. Please look at that.

That was not the issue. No one ever claimed that slabs of more than 4GB
were supported.

That is not accurate: kmalloc falls back after PAGE_SIZE << 1 to the page
allocator.

Again not the issue. Please stop fighting straw men and issues that you
come up with in your imagination. size_t makes sense because the type is
designed to represent the size of an object.

The page sizes on both platforms are configurable and there have been
experiments in the past with far larger page sizes. If this is what is
currently supported then its ok.

Re: [PATCH 01/25] slab: fixup calculate_alignment() argument type

[Matthew Wilcox]

Hi Alexey,

I came across this:

        for (order = max(min_order, (unsigned int)get_order(min_objects * size + reserved));

Do you want to work on making get_order() return an unsigned int?

Also, I think get_order(0) should probably be 0, but you might develop
a different feeling for it as you work your way around the kernel looking
at how it's used.

IIRC total size increased when I made it return "unsigned int".

Another thing is that there should be 3 get_order's corresponding
to 32-bit, 64-bit and unsigned long versions of fls() which correspond
to REX and non-REX versions of BSR.

Huh, weird.  Did you go so far as to try having it return unsigned char?
We know it's not going to return anything outside the range of 0-63.
