source: trunk/kernel/mm/ppm.h @ 645

Last change on this file since 645 was 635, checked in by alain, 5 years ago

This version is a major evolution: The physical memory allocators,
defined in the kmem.c, ppm.c, and kcm.c files have been modified
to support remote accesses. The RPCs that were previously user
to allocate physical memory in a remote cluster have been removed.
This has been done to cure a dead-lock in case of concurrent page-faults.

This version 2.2 has been tested on a (4 clusters / 2 cores per cluster)
TSAR architecture, for both the "sort" and the "fft" applications.

37 * This structure defines the Physical Pages Manager in a cluster.
38 * In each cluster, the physical memory bank starts at local physical address 0 and
39 * contains an integer number of small pages, defined by the <pages_nr> field in the
40 * boot_info structure. It is split in three parts:
41 *
42 * - the "kernel_code" section contains the kernel code, loaded by the boot-loader.
43 *   It starts at local PPN = 0 and the size is defined by the <pages_offset> field
44 *   in the boot_info structure.
45 * - the local "pages_tbl" section contains the physical page descriptors array.
46 *   It starts at local PPN = pages_offset, and it contains one entry per small page.
47 *   It is created and initialized by the hal_ppm_create() function.
48 * - The "kernel_heap" section contains all physical pages that are are not in the
49 *   "kernel_code" and "pages_tbl" sections, and that have not been reserved.
50 *   The reserved pages are defined in the boot_info structure.
51 *
52 * The main service provided by the PMM is the dynamic allocation of physical pages
53 * from the "kernel_heap" section. This low-level allocator implements the "buddy"
54 * algorithm: an allocated block is an integer number n of small pages, where n
55 * is a power of 2, and ln(n) is called order. The free_pages_root[] array contains
56 * the roots ot the local lists of free pages for different sizes, as required by
57 * the "buddy" algorithm.
58 * The local threads can access these free_lists by calling the ppm_alloc_pages() and
59 * ppm_free_page() functions, but the remote threads can access the same free lists,
60 * by calling the ppm_remote_alloc_pages() and ppm_remote_free_pages functions.
61 * Therefore, these free lists are protected by a remote_busy_lock.
62 *
63 * Another service is to register the dirty pages in a specific local dirty_list,
64 * also rooted in the PPM, in order to be able to synchronize all dirty pages on disk.
65 * This dirty list is protected by a specific remote_queuelock, because it can be
66 * modified by a remote thread.
