if (likely(page == c->page)) { void **freelist = READ_ONCE(c->freelist); set_freepointer(s, tail_obj, freelist); if (unlikely(!this_cpu_cmpxchg_double( s->cpu_slab->freelist, s->cpu_slab->tid, freelist, tid, head, next_tid(tid)))) { note_cmpxchg_failure("slab_free", s, tid); goto redo; } stat(s, FREE_FASTPATH); } else __slab_free(s, page, head, tail_obj, cnt, addr); 1、要释放的对象正好在cpu本地缓存中; 2、set_freepointer函数:将要释放的object加入到空闲的object链表中,并且为链表中代替freelist为第一个空闲的object,即相当于object->next = c->freelist; 3、重新分配freelist,这里是将c->freelist = head(head即目标object);
进入__slab_free函数,大致框架如下:
do { if (unlikely(n)) { spin_unlock_irqrestore(&n->list_lock, flags); n = NULL; } prior = page->freelist; counters = page->counters; set_freepointer(s, tail, prior); new.counters = counters; /* * 1、frozen=0,说明该slab在node中;frozen=1,则说明该slab在slab_cpu缓存中; * 2、inuse=0,说明该slab中没有正在使用的object;inuse=objects,则说明该slab为full * 3、prior=0,说明目标object在c->page中或者在s->slab_cpu->partital、 s->node->partital中且无可分配的object */ was_frozen = new.frozen; new.inuse -= cnt; /* * 下面需要对目标object释放的情况进行划分: * (1)inuse=0 && was_frozen=0:目标object在node节点中,且释放后该slab中的object 全部未分配,此时该slab可以释放到伙伴系统或者不处理; * (2)prior=0 && was_frozen=0:释放前在full的slab链表中,释放后为半满状态; * (3)was_frozen=1:该slab在s->slab_cpu->partital缓存中; */ if ((!new.inuse || !prior) && !was_frozen) { //(1)(2) if (kmem_cache_has_cpu_partial(s) && !prior) { //(2) new.frozen = 1; } else { //(1) n = get_node(s, page_to_nid(page)); spin_lock_irqsave(&n->list_lock, flags); } } while (!cmpxchg_double_slab(s, page, prior, counters, head, new.counters, "__slab_free")); /* * 前面的while循环中对目标object释放进行了分类和简单的预处理,下面针对这几种情况进行后续的处理。 * 包括是否将空的slab释放回伙伴系统以及维护slab_cpu->patital和node->partital链表; */ if (likely(!n)) { if (new.frozen && !was_frozen) { //(2)node节点,半满 put_cpu_partial(s, page, 1);//将slab释放到slab_cpu->partital链表中 stat(s, CPU_PARTIAL_FREE); } if (was_frozen) //slab_cpu->partital中,则不处理直接返回 stat(s, FREE_FROZEN); return; } //释放object后该slab变为free,此时需要对比node->partital中slab的数量和内核定义的最小min大小 //如果n->nr_partial >= s->min_partial,则将slab释放到伙伴系统; //如果n->nr_partial < s->min_partial, 则不处理; if (unlikely(!new.inuse && n->nr_partial >= s->min_partial)) goto slab_empty; //未定义CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTITAL时走这个流程; if (!kmem_cache_has_cpu_partial(s) && unlikely(!prior)) { remove_full(s, n, page);//从full链表中移除 add_partial(n, page, DEACTIVATE_TO_TAIL);//加入到node->partital链表中 stat(s, FREE_ADD_PARTIAL); } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&n->list_lock, flags); return; slab_empty: if (prior) { /* * Slab on the partial list. */ remove_partial(n, page);//将该slab从链表中删除,并将nr_partital减一 stat(s, FREE_REMOVE_PARTIAL); } else { /* Slab must be on the full list */ remove_full(s, n, page); } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&n->list_lock, flags); stat(s, FREE_SLAB); discard_slab(s, page); }
所以从代码来看,主要分成以下几种情况:
1、目标object在s->slab_cpu->partital中,直接释放即可,无需后续的处理;
2、目标object在s->node中,释放完object后slab中的object全为free;此时需要考虑空的slab如何处理
(1)s->node->partital中slab的个数大于等于min_partital时,将该slab释放到伙伴系统;
(2)s->node->partital中slab的个数小于min_partital时,该slab依然保留在s->node->partital链表中;
3、目标object在s->node中,释放object前slab为full,没有可分配object,释放完后为半满状态;此时需要将半满的slab从full链表中删除并加入到s->slab_cpu的链表中,需要注意s->slab_cpu->partital中也需要判断下所有的free的object的数量是否超过了规定的水位,判断后在决定是否加入;
lab从full链表中删除并加入到s->slab_cpu的链表中,需要注意s->slab_cpu->partital中也需要判断下所有的free的object的数量是否超过了规定的水位,判断后在决定是否加入;
