A follow up patch in this series adds hugetlb cgroup uncharge info the file_region entries in resv->regions. The cgroup uncharge info may differ for different regions, so they can no longer be coalesced at region_add time. So, disable region coalescing in region_add in this patch.

Behavior change:

Say a resv_map exists like this [0->1], [2->3], and [5->6].

Then a region_chg/add call comes in region_chg/add(f=0, t=5).

Old code would generate resv->regions: [0->5], [5->6]. New code would generate resv->regions: [0->1], [1->2], [2->3], [3->5], [5->6].

Special care needs to be taken to handle the resv->adds_in_progress variable correctly. In the past, only 1 region would be added for every region_chg and region_add call. But now, each call may add multiple regions, so we can no longer increment adds_in_progress by 1 in region_chg, or decrement adds_in_progress by 1 after region_add or region_abort. Instead, region_chg calls add_reservation_in_range() to count the number of regions needed and allocates those, and that info is passed to region_add and region_abort to decrement adds_in_progress correctly.

Once again focusing on the core changes first as they impact existing hugetlbfs users as well.

Should we instead compare actual_regions_needed to in_regions_needed and allocate if more regions are actually needed? If not, the loop below only brings the cache up to the number of regions needed for this operation. There could be an operation with range of one in progress and this operation will consume all operation in the cache which will cause us to hit the BUG.

Great catch, thanks! Fixed in v8!

I think the correct condition is:

region_cache_count == (adds_in_progress + (actual_regions_needed - in_regions_needed))

That means the region_cache_count has enough for all the current adds in progress plus the ones we discovered are needed extra.

•         while (resv->region_cache_count < actual_regions_needed) {
  

•                 /* Must drop lock to allocate a new descriptor. */
  

It would be better to drop the lock, try to allocate all the needed descriptors, and then reacquire lock instead of dropping and acquiring lock in a loop.

Fixed in v8.

Ok, so adds_in_progress really becomes regions in the process of being added. I think we would then like to keep number of entries in the cache equal to adds_in_progress?

Excess cache entries will be re-used by the next region_chg call. Is that ok?

Deallocating the excess entries so that the next region_chg entry has to allocate its own is doable too, but it's quite annoying. Some codepaths are made simpler by not worrying about 'cleaning up' excess cache entries. For example, region_add doesn't need to handle what if the actual_regions_needed is less than the in_regions_needed because it can just leave the extra cache entries for later use.

I think we always want to add out_regions_needed to the cache?

Current code adds out_regions_needed to adds_in_progress while holding the lock, then brings up region_cache_count to adds_in_prorgess. There shouldn't be a race here, since other region_chg/add calls hold the lock to modify the adds_in_progress value. The effect here is that we re-use excess cache entries.

What I fixed in v8 is that when region_add finds out it needs more entries, it should make sure there is enough for the adds_in_progress plus the extra regions that operation needs.

add needs to be initialized, as a goto out_err can happen before region_add. Or, the code after out_err is wrong (see below).

Fixed to initialize to -1.

This is incorrect, you certainly do want to call region_abort if we got here before region_add.

This makes me wonder if a region_add failure should clean up and implicitly do a region_abort?

With add initialized to -1 the code is correct, I think but the comment is wrong, so I updated the comment.

I would prefer that this helper move above the region_* routines that use it and eliminate the forward declaration at the start of this patch.
