source: trunk/kernel/mm/mapper.h @ 646

Last change on this file since 646 was 635, checked in by alain, 5 years ago

This version is a major evolution: The physical memory allocators,
defined in the kmem.c, ppm.c, and kcm.c files have been modified
to support remote accesses. The RPCs that were previously user
to allocate physical memory in a remote cluster have been removed.
This has been done to cure a dead-lock in case of concurrent page-faults.

This version 2.2 has been tested on a (4 clusters / 2 cores per cluster)
TSAR architecture, for both the "sort" and the "fft" applications.

40 * This mapper_t object implements the kernel cache for a given VFS file or directory.
41 * There is one mapper per file/dir. It is implemented as a three levels radix tree,
42 * entirely stored in the same cluster as the inode representing the file/dir.
43 * - The fast retrieval key is the page index in the file.
44 *   The ix1_width, ix2_width, ix3_width sub-indexes are configuration parameters.
45 * - The leaves are pointers on physical page descriptors, dynamically allocated
46 *   in the local cluster.
47 * - The mapper is protected by a "remote_rwlock", to support several simultaneous
48 *   "readers", and only one "writer".
49 * - A "reader" thread, calling the mapper_remote_get_page() function to get a page
50 *   descriptor pointer from the page index in file, can be running in any cluster.
51 * - A "writer" thread, calling the mapper_handle_miss() function to handle a page miss
52 *   must be local (running in the mapper cluster).
53 * - The vfs_fs_move_page() function access the file system to handle a mapper miss,
54 *   or update a dirty page on device.
55 * - The vfs_mapper_load_all() functions is used to load all pages of a directory
56 *   into the mapper (prefetch).
57 * - the mapper_move_user() function is used to move data to or from an user buffer.
58 *   This user space buffer can be physically distributed in several clusters.
59 * - the mapper_move_kernel() function is used to move data to or from a remote kernel
60 *   buffer, that can be physically located in any cluster.
61 * - In the present implementation the cache size for a given file increases on demand,
62 *   and the  allocated memory is only released when the mapper/inode is destroyed.
63 *
64 * TODO (1) the mapper being only used to implement the VFS cache(s), the mapper.c
65 *          and mapper.h file should be trandfered to the fs directory.
66 * TODO (2) the "type" field in mapper descriptor is redundant and probably unused.
