As x86 Kconfig doesn't even allow this combination, one is tempted to
think it's an architecture Kconfig bug. But as it turns out, it's a
perfecly valid configuration. Tony Luck explains:

  UP + NUMA is a special case of memory-only nodes.  There are some (crazy?)
  customers with problems that require very large amounts of memory, but not very
  much cpu horse power.  They buy large multi-node systems and populate all the
  nodes with as much memory as they can afford, but most nodes get zero cpus.

So lets fix that up.

SLQB has a design flaw noticed by Yanmin Zhang when doing network packet
stress testing.

My intention with lockless slab lists had been to try to balance
producer/consumer type activity on the object queues just at allocation-time
with the producer and free-time with the consumer. But that breaks down if you
have a huge number of objects in-flight and then free them after activity is
reduced at the producer-side.

Basically just objects being allocated on CPU0 are then freed by CPU1 but then
rely on activity from CPU0 (or periodic trimming) to free them back to the page
allocator. If there is infrequent activity on CPU0, then it can take a long
time for the periodic trimming to free up unused objects.

Fix this by adding a lock to the page list queues and allowing CPU1 to do the
freeing work synchronously if queues get too large. It allows "nice"
producer/consumer type patterns to still fit within the fast object queues,
without the possibility to build up a lot of objects... The spinlock should
not be a big problem for nice workloads, as it is at least an order of
magnitude less frequent than an object allocation/free operation.

Implement dynamic allocation for SLQB per-cpu and per-node arrays. This
should hopefully have minimal runtime performance impact, because although
there is an extra level of indirection to do allocations, the pointer should
be in the cache hot area of the struct kmem_cache.

It's not quite possible to use dynamic percpu allocator for this: firstly,
that subsystem uses the slab allocator. Secondly, it doesn't have good
support for per-node data. If those problems were improved, we could use it.
For now, just implement a very very simple allocator until the kmalloc
caches are up.

On x86-64 with a NUMA MAXCPUS config, sizes look like this:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  29960  259565     100  289625   46b59 mm/slab.o
  34130  497130     696  531956   81df4 mm/slub.o
  24575 1634267  111136 1769978  1b01fa mm/slqb.o
  24845   13959     712   39516    9a5c mm/slqb.o + this patch

SLQB is now 2 orders of magnitude smaller than it was, and an order of
magnitude smaller than SLAB or SLUB (in total size -- text size has
always been smaller). So it should now be very suitable for distro-type
configs in this respect.

As a side-effect the UP version of cpu_slab (which is embedded directly
in the kmem_cache struct) moves up to the hot cachelines, so it need no
longer be cacheline aligned on UP. The overall result should be a
reduction in cacheline footprint on UP kernels.

Introducing the SLQB slab allocator.

SLQB takes code and ideas from all other slab allocators in the tree.

The primary method for keeping lists of free objects within the allocator
is a singly-linked list, storing a pointer within the object memory itself
(or a small additional space in the case of RCU destroyed slabs). This is
like SLOB and SLUB, and opposed to SLAB, which uses arrays of objects, and
metadata. This reduces memory consumption and makes smaller sized objects
more realistic as there is less overhead.

Using lists rather than arrays can reduce the cacheline footprint. When moving
objects around, SLQB can move a list of objects from one CPU to another by
simply manipulating a head pointer, wheras SLAB needs to memcpy arrays. Some
SLAB per-CPU arrays can be up to 1K in size, which is a lot of cachelines that
can be touched during alloc/free. Newly freed objects tend to be cache hot,
and newly allocated ones tend to soon be touched anyway, so often there is
little cost to using metadata in the objects.

SLQB has a per-CPU LIFO freelist of objects like SLAB (but using lists rather
than arrays). Freed objects are returned to this freelist if they belong to
the node which our CPU belongs to. So objects allocated on one CPU can be
added to the freelist of another CPU on the same node. When LIFO freelists need
to be refilled or trimmed, SLQB takes or returns objects from a list of slabs.

SLQB has per-CPU lists of slabs (which use struct page as their metadata
including list head for this list). Each slab contains a singly-linked list of
objects that are free in that slab (free, and not on a LIFO freelist). Slabs
are freed as soon as all their objects are freed, and only allocated when there
are no slabs remaining. They are taken off this slab list when if there are no
free objects left. So the slab lists always only contain "partial" slabs; those
slabs which are not completely full and not completely empty. SLQB slabs can be
manipulated with no locking unlike other allocators which tend to use per-node
locks. As the number of threads per socket increases, this should help improve
the scalability of slab operations.

Freeing objects to remote slab lists first batches up the objects on the
freeing CPU, then moves them over at once to a list on the allocating CPU. The
allocating CPU will then notice those objects and pull them onto the end of its
freelist.  This remote freeing scheme is designed to minimise the number of
cross CPU cachelines touched, short of going to a "crossbar" arrangement like
SLAB has.  SLAB has "crossbars" of arrays of objects. That is,
NR_CPUS*MAX_NUMNODES type arrays, which can become very bloated in huge systems
(this could be hundreds of GBs for kmem caches for 4096 CPU, 1024 nodes
systems).

SLQB also has similar freelist, slablist structures per-node, which are
protected by a lock, and usable by any CPU in order to do node specific
allocations. These allocations tend not to be too frequent (short lived
allocations should be node local, long lived allocations should not be
too frequent).

There is a good overview and illustration of the design here:

http://lwn.net/Articles/311502/

By using LIFO freelists like SLAB, SLQB tries to be very page-size agnostic.
It tries very hard to use order-0 pages. This is good for both page allocator
fragmentation, and slab fragmentation.

SLQB initialistaion code attempts to be as simple and un-clever as possible.
There are no multiple phases where different things come up. There is no
weird self bootstrapping stuff. It just statically allocates the structures
required to create the slabs that allocate other slab structures.

SLQB uses much of the debugging infrastructure, and fine-grained sysfs
statistics from SLUB. There is also a Documentation/vm/slqbinfo.c, derived
from slabinfo.c, which can query the sysfs data.
