source: trunk/kernel/mm/ppm.h @ 626

Last change on this file since 626 was 625, checked in by alain, 6 years ago

Fix a bug in the vmm_remove_vseg() function: the physical pages
associated to an user DATA vseg were released to the kernel when
the target process descriptor was in the reference cluster.
This physical pages release should be done only when the page
forks counter value is zero.
All other modifications are cosmetic.

37 * This structure defines the Physical Pages Manager in a cluster.
38 * In each cluster, the physical memory bank starts at local physical address 0 and
39 * contains an integer number of small pages, defined by the <pages_nr> field in the
40 * boot_info structure. It is split in three parts:
41 *
42 * - the "kernel_code" section contains the kernel code, loaded by the boot-loader.
43 *   It starts at local PPN = 0 and the size is defined by the <pages_offset> field
44 *   in the boot_info structure.
45 * - the local "pages_tbl" section contains the physical page descriptors array.
46 *   It starts at local PPN = pages_offset, and it contains one entry per small page.
47 *   It is created and initialized by the hal_ppm_create() function.
48 * - The "kernel_heap" section contains all physical pages that are are not in the
49 *   "kernel_code" and "pages_tbl" sections, and that have not been reserved.
50 *   The reserved pages are defined in the boot_info structure.
51 *
52 * The main service provided by the PMM is the dynamic allocation of physical pages
53 * from the "kernel_heap" section. This low-level allocator implements the buddy
54 * algorithm: an allocated block is an integer number n of small pages, where n
55 * is a power of 2, and ln(n) is called order.
56 * This allocator being shared by the local threads, the free_page lists rooted
57 * in the PPM descriptor are protected by a local busylock, because it is used
58 * by the idle_thread during kernel_init().
59 *
60 * Another service is to register the dirty pages in a specific dirty_list, that is
61 * also rooted in the PPM, in order to be able to synchronize all dirty pages on disk.
62 * This dirty list is protected by a specific remote_queuelock, because it can be
63 * modified by a remote thread, but it contains only local pages.
