| H A D | uma.h | diff 129906 Mon May 31 19:46:06 MDT 2004 bmilekic Bring in mbuma to replace mballoc. mbuma is an Mbuf & Cluster allocator built on top of a number of extensions to the UMA framework, all included herein. Extensions to UMA worth noting: - Better layering between slab <-> zone caches; introduce Keg structure which splits off slab cache away from the zone structure and allows multiple zones to be stacked on top of a single Keg (single type of slab cache); perhaps we should look into defining a subset API on top of the Keg for special use by malloc(9), for example. - UMA_ZONE_REFCNT zones can now be added, and reference counters automagically allocated for them within the end of the associated slab structures. uma_find_refcnt() does a kextract to fetch the slab struct reference from the underlying page, and lookup the corresponding refcnt. mbuma things worth noting: - integrates mbuf & cluster allocations with extended UMA and provides caches for commonly-allocated items; defines several zones (two primary, one secondary) and two kegs. - change up certain code paths that always used to do: m_get() + m_clget() to instead just use m_getcl() and try to take advantage of the newly defined secondary Packet zone. - netstat(1) and systat(1) quickly hacked up to do basic stat reporting but additional stats work needs to be done once some other details within UMA have been taken care of and it becomes clearer to how stats will work within the modified framework. From the user perspective, one implication is that the NMBCLUSTERS compile-time option is no longer used. The maximum number of clusters is still capped off according to maxusers, but it can be made unlimited by setting the kern.ipc.nmbclusters boot-time tunable to zero. Work should be done to write an appropriate sysctl handler allowing dynamic tuning of kern.ipc.nmbclusters at runtime. Additional things worth noting/known issues (READ): - One report of 'ips' (ServeRAID) driver acting really slow in conjunction with mbuma. Need more data. Latest report is that ips is equally sucking with and without mbuma. - Giant leak in NFS code sometimes occurs, can't reproduce but currently analyzing; brueffer is able to reproduce but THIS IS NOT an mbuma-specific problem and currently occurs even WITHOUT mbuma. - Issues in network locking: there is at least one code path in the rip code where one or more locks are acquired and we end up in m_prepend() with M_WAITOK, which causes WITNESS to whine from within UMA. Current temporary solution: force all UMA allocations to be M_NOWAIT from within UMA for now to avoid deadlocks unless WITNESS is defined and we can determine with certainty that we're not holding any locks when we're M_WAITOK. - I've seen at least one weird socketbuffer empty-but- mbuf-still-attached panic. I don't believe this to be related to mbuma but please keep your eyes open, turn on debugging, and capture crash dumps. This change removes more code than it adds. A paper is available detailing the change and considering various performance issues, it was presented at BSDCan2004: http://www.unixdaemons.com/~bmilekic/netbuf_bmilekic.pdf Please read the paper for Future Work and implementation details, as well as credits.

| H A D | uipc_mbuf.c | diff 129906 Mon May 31 19:46:06 MDT 2004 bmilekic Bring in mbuma to replace mballoc. mbuma is an Mbuf & Cluster allocator built on top of a number of extensions to the UMA framework, all included herein. Extensions to UMA worth noting: - Better layering between slab <-> zone caches; introduce Keg structure which splits off slab cache away from the zone structure and allows multiple zones to be stacked on top of a single Keg (single type of slab cache); perhaps we should look into defining a subset API on top of the Keg for special use by malloc(9), for example. - UMA_ZONE_REFCNT zones can now be added, and reference counters automagically allocated for them within the end of the associated slab structures. uma_find_refcnt() does a kextract to fetch the slab struct reference from the underlying page, and lookup the corresponding refcnt. mbuma things worth noting: - integrates mbuf & cluster allocations with extended UMA and provides caches for commonly-allocated items; defines several zones (two primary, one secondary) and two kegs. - change up certain code paths that always used to do: m_get() + m_clget() to instead just use m_getcl() and try to take advantage of the newly defined secondary Packet zone. - netstat(1) and systat(1) quickly hacked up to do basic stat reporting but additional stats work needs to be done once some other details within UMA have been taken care of and it becomes clearer to how stats will work within the modified framework. From the user perspective, one implication is that the NMBCLUSTERS compile-time option is no longer used. The maximum number of clusters is still capped off according to maxusers, but it can be made unlimited by setting the kern.ipc.nmbclusters boot-time tunable to zero. Work should be done to write an appropriate sysctl handler allowing dynamic tuning of kern.ipc.nmbclusters at runtime. Additional things worth noting/known issues (READ): - One report of 'ips' (ServeRAID) driver acting really slow in conjunction with mbuma. Need more data. Latest report is that ips is equally sucking with and without mbuma. - Giant leak in NFS code sometimes occurs, can't reproduce but currently analyzing; brueffer is able to reproduce but THIS IS NOT an mbuma-specific problem and currently occurs even WITHOUT mbuma. - Issues in network locking: there is at least one code path in the rip code where one or more locks are acquired and we end up in m_prepend() with M_WAITOK, which causes WITNESS to whine from within UMA.
