Subject: [PATCH v3 10/21] kho: allow early-boot usage of the KHO radix tree
Date: Thu,  9 Jul 2026 19:37:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709173821.429921-11-pratyush@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709173821.429921-1-pratyush@kernel.org>

From: "Pratyush Yadav (Google)" <pratyush@kernel.org>

The KHO radix tree allocates memory for table pages from the buddy
allocator using get_zeroed_page(). This is not available in early boot
when memblock is still active.

Using the radix tree in early boot is useful for KHO to track metadata
about its memory. One such example is for tracking free blocks for
memory allocation when scratch runs out of space. This feature will be
added in the following commits.

Add kho_radix_{alloc,free}_node() which allocate and free the table
pages. They use slab_is_available() to decide which allocator to use.
While slab_is_available() indicates availability of the slab allocator,
it gets initialized right after buddy so it serves the same practical
purpose.
