So I change it to spinlock. I'm not sure it would be good always. Maybe you remember we discussed about similar stuff about bitmap searching in vmap friend internally, which was really painful when it was fragmented. So, at least we need number if you really want and I hope the number from ARM machine most popular platform for CMA at the moment. > > Signed-off-by: Joonsoo Kim > > diff --git a/mm/cma.c b/mm/cma.c > index 22a5b23..3085e8c 100644 > --- a/mm/cma.c > +++ b/mm/cma.c > @@ -27,6 +27,7 @@ > #include > #include > #include > +#include > #include > #include > #include > @@ -36,7 +37,7 @@ struct cma { > unsigned long count; > unsigned long *bitmap; > int order_per_bit; /* Order of pages represented by one bit */ > - struct mutex lock; > + spinlock_t lock; > }; > > /* > @@ -72,9 +73,9 @@ static void clear_cma_bitmap(struct cma *cma, unsigned long pfn, int count) > bitmapno = (pfn - cma->base_pfn) >> cma->order_per_bit; > nr_bits = cma_bitmap_pages_to_bits(cma, count); > > - mutex_lock(&cma->lock); > + spin_lock(&cma->lock); > bitmap_clear(cma->bitmap, bitmapno, nr_bits); > - mutex_unlock(&cma->lock); > + spin_unlock(&cma->lock); > } > > static int __init cma_activate_area(struct cma *cma) > @@ -112,7 +113,7 @@ static int __init cma_activate_area(struct cma *cma) > init_cma_reserved_pageblock(pfn_to_page(base_pfn)); > } while (--i); > > - mutex_init(&cma->lock); > + spin_lock_init(&cma->lock); > return 0; > > err: > @@ -261,11 +262,11 @@ struct page *cma_alloc(struct cma *cma, int count, unsigned int align) > nr_bits = cma_bitmap_pages_to_bits(cma, count); > > for (;;) { > - mutex_lock(&cma->lock); > + spin_lock(&cma->lock); > bitmapno = bitmap_find_next_zero_area(cma->bitmap, > bitmap_maxno, start, nr_bits, mask); > if (bitmapno >= bitmap_maxno) { > - mutex_unlock(&cma->lock); > + spin_unlock(&cma->lock); > break; > } > bitmap_set(cma->bitmap, bitmapno, nr_bits); > @@ -274,7 +275,7 @@ struct page *cma_alloc(struct cma *cma, int count, unsigned int align) > * our exclusive use.
