【Linux 内核 内存管理】物理内存组织结构 ④ ( 内存区域 zone 简介 | zone 结构体源码分析 | zone 结构体源码 )

内存管理系统 $3$级结构 :

① 内存节点 Node ,

② 内存区域 Zone ,

③ 内存页 Page ,

Linux 内核中 , 使用 上述 $3$ 级结构 描述 和 管理 " 物理内存 " ;

一、内存区域 zone 简介

---

" 内存节点 " 是内存管理的 最顶层结构 ,

" 内存节点 " 再向下划分 , 就是 " 内存区域 " zone ,

" 内存区域 " 在 Linux 内核中使用 struct zone 结构体类型进行描述 , zone 枚举定义在 Linux 内核源码的 linux-4.12\include\linux\mmzone.h#350 位置 ;

每个 " 内存区域 " , 都使用 $1$ 个 zone 结构体 描述 ;

二、zone 结构体源码分析

---

1、watermark 成员

watermark 表示 " 页分配器 " 使用的 水线 ;

	/* zone watermarks, access with *_wmark_pages(zone) macros */
	unsigned long watermark[NR_WMARK];

2、lowmem_reserve 成员

lowmem_reserve 表示 页分配器 使用的 区域 , 这些区域 必须 保留 , 不能借给高区域类型 ;

	/*
	 * We don't know if the memory that we're going to allocate will be
	 * freeable or/and it will be released eventually, so to avoid totally
	 * wasting several GB of ram we must reserve some of the lower zone
	 * memory (otherwise we risk to run OOM on the lower zones despite
	 * there being tons of freeable ram on the higher zones).  This array is
	 * recalculated at runtime if the sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio sysctl
	 * changes.
	 */
	long lowmem_reserve[MAX_NR_ZONES];

3、zone_pgdat 成员

zone_pgdat 指向 " 内存节点 " 的 pglist_data 实例 ;

	struct pglist_data	*zone_pgdat;

4、pageset 成员

pageset 表示 每个 " 处理页 " 的集合 ;

	struct per_cpu_pageset __percpu *pageset;

5、zone_start_pfn 成员

zone_start_pfn 表示当前 " 内存区域 zone " 的 " 起始物理页 " 编号 ;

	/* zone_start_pfn == zone_start_paddr >> PAGE_SHIFT */
	unsigned long		zone_start_pfn;

6、managed_pages、spanned_pages、present_pages成员

managed_pages 表示 " 伙伴分配器 " 管理的 物理页数量 ;

spanned_pages 表示 当前的 " 内存区域 " 跨越的 物理页 个数 , 包含 " 内存空洞 " ;

present_pages 表示 当前的 " 内存区域 " 包含的 物理页 个数 , 不包含 " 内存空洞 " ;

	/*
	 * spanned_pages is the total pages spanned by the zone, including
	 * holes, which is calculated as:
	 * 	spanned_pages = zone_end_pfn - zone_start_pfn;
	 *
	 * present_pages is physical pages existing within the zone, which
	 * is calculated as:
	 *	present_pages = spanned_pages - absent_pages(pages in holes);
	 *
	 * managed_pages is present pages managed by the buddy system, which
	 * is calculated as (reserved_pages includes pages allocated by the
	 * bootmem allocator):
	 *	managed_pages = present_pages - reserved_pages;
	 *
	 * So present_pages may be used by memory hotplug or memory power
	 * management logic to figure out unmanaged pages by checking
	 * (present_pages - managed_pages). And managed_pages should be used
	 * by page allocator and vm scanner to calculate all kinds of watermarks
	 * and thresholds.
	 *
	 * Locking rules:
	 *
	 * zone_start_pfn and spanned_pages are protected by span_seqlock.
	 * It is a seqlock because it has to be read outside of zone->lock,
	 * and it is done in the main allocator path.  But, it is written
	 * quite infrequently.
	 *
	 * The span_seq lock is declared along with zone->lock because it is
	 * frequently read in proximity to zone->lock.  It's good to
	 * give them a chance of being in the same cacheline.
	 *
	 * Write access to present_pages at runtime should be protected by
	 * mem_hotplug_begin/end(). Any reader who can't tolerant drift of
	 * present_pages should get_online_mems() to get a stable value.
	 *
	 * Read access to managed_pages should be safe because it's unsigned
	 * long. Write access to zone->managed_pages and totalram_pages are
	 * protected by managed_page_count_lock at runtime. Idealy only
	 * adjust_managed_page_count() should be used instead of directly
	 * touching zone->managed_pages and totalram_pages.
	 */
	unsigned long		managed_pages;
	unsigned long		spanned_pages;
	unsigned long		present_pages;

7、name 成员

name 表示 " 内存区域 " 名称 ;

	const char		*name;

8、free_area 成员

free_area 表示 不同长度的 内存空间区域 ;

	/* free areas of different sizes */
	struct free_area	free_area[MAX_ORDER];

三、zone 结构体源码

zone 结构体源码 :

struct zone {
    
    
	/* Read-mostly fields */

	/* zone watermarks, access with *_wmark_pages(zone) macros */
	unsigned long watermark[NR_WMARK];

	unsigned long nr_reserved_highatomic;

	 * We don't know if the memory that we're going to allocate will be
	 * freeable or/and it will be released eventually, so to avoid totally
	 * wasting several GB of ram we must reserve some of the lower zone
	 * memory (otherwise we risk to run OOM on the lower zones despite
	 * there being tons of freeable ram on the higher zones).  This array is
