Michal Hocko 0ee931c4e3 mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag
GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8f ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE.  It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation.  As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag.  How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.

The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory.  So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.

I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification.  I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring.  This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.

I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse.  Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL.  Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.

I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.

This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic.  It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users.  The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers.  So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

/*
* This driver exists to allow userspace programs in Linux to allocate kernel
* memory that will later be shared with another domain. Without this device,
* Linux userspace programs cannot create grant references.
*
* How this stuff works:
* X -> granting a page to Y
* Y -> mapping the grant from X
*
* 1. X uses the gntalloc device to allocate a page of kernel memory, P.
* 2. X creates an entry in the grant table that says domid(Y) can access P.
* This is done without a hypercall unless the grant table needs expansion.
* 3. X gives the grant reference identifier, GREF, to Y.
* 4. Y maps the page, either directly into kernel memory for use in a backend
* driver, or via a the gntdev device to map into the address space of an
* application running in Y. This is the first point at which Xen does any
* tracking of the page.
* 5. A program in X mmap()s a segment of the gntalloc device that corresponds
* to the shared page, and can now communicate with Y over the shared page.
*
*
* NOTE TO USERSPACE LIBRARIES:
* The grant allocation and mmap()ing are, naturally, two separate operations.
* You set up the sharing by calling the create ioctl() and then the mmap().
* Teardown requires munmap() and either close() or ioctl().
*
* WARNING: Since Xen does not allow a guest to forcibly end the use of a grant
* reference, this device can be used to consume kernel memory by leaving grant
* references mapped by another domain when an application exits. Therefore,
* there is a global limit on the number of pages that can be allocated. When
* all references to the page are unmapped, it will be freed during the next
* grant operation.
