Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible. A limit of 4M still lets us reasonably comfortably allocate a limited number of 1MB objects. Finally, the kmem:slab_small and kmem:slab_large SPLAT tests were extended to provide better test coverage of various object sizes and alignments. Caches are created with random parameters and their basic functionality is verified by allocating several slabs worth of objects. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

Fix kmem cache deadlock logic The kmem cache implementation always adds new slabs by dispatching a task to the spl_kmem_cache taskq to perform the allocation. This is done because large slabs must be allocated using vmalloc(). It is possible these allocations will block on IO because the GFP_NOIO flag is not honored. This can result in a deadlock. Therefore, a deadlock detection strategy was implemented to deal with this case. When it is determined, by timeout, that the spl_kmem_cache thread has deadlocked attempting to add a new slab. Then all callers attempting to allocate from the cache fall back to using kmalloc() which does honor all passed flags. This logic was correct but an optimization in the code allowed for a deadlock. Because only slabs backed by vmalloc() can deadlock in the way described above. An optimization was made to only invoke this deadlock detection code for vmalloc() backed caches. This had the advantage of making it easy to distinguish these objects when they were freed. But this isn't strictly safe. If all the spl_kmem_cache threads end up deadlocked than we can't grow any of the other caches either. This can once again result in a deadlock if memory needs to be allocated from one of these other caches to ensure forward progress. The fix here is to remove the optimization which limits this fall back allocation stratagy to vmalloc() backed caches. Doing this means we may need to take the cache lock in spl_kmem_cache_free() call path. But this small cost can be mitigated by ignoring objects with virtual addresses. For good measure the default number of spl_kmem_cache threads has been increased from 1 to 4, and made tunable. This alone wouldn't resolve the original issue since it's still possible for all the threads to be deadlocked. However, it does help responsiveness by ensuring that a single deadlocked spl_kmem_cache thread doesn't block allocations from other caches until the timeout is reached.

* Slab allocation interfaces
*
* While the Linux slab implementation was inspired by the Solaris
* implementation I cannot use it to emulate the Solaris APIs. I
* require two features which are not provided by the Linux slab.
*
* 1) Constructors AND destructors. Recent versions of the Linux
* kernel have removed support for destructors. This is a deal
* breaker for the SPL which contains particularly expensive
* initializers for mutex's, condition variables, etc. We also
* require a minimal level of cleanup for these data types unlike
* many Linux data types which do need to be explicitly destroyed.
*
* 2) Virtual address space backed slab. Callers of the Solaris slab
* expect it to work well for both small are very large allocations.
* Because of memory fragmentation the Linux slab which is backed
* by kmalloc'ed memory performs very badly when confronted with
* large numbers of large allocations. Basing the slab on the
* virtual address space removes the need for contiguous pages
* and greatly improve performance for large allocations.
*
* For these reasons, the SPL has its own slab implementation with
* the needed features. It is not as highly optimized as either the
* Solaris or Linux slabs, but it should get me most of what is
* needed until it can be optimized or obsoleted by another approach.
*
* One serious concern I do have about this method is the relatively
* small virtual address space on 32bit arches. This will seriously
* constrain the size of the slab caches and their performance.

Refactor generic memory allocation interfaces This patch achieves the following goals: 1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were mapped to gfp flags. 2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled, and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered. This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to different memory management strategies employed by the respective kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required. 3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and --enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. 4. Improve portability by exposing an implementation of the memory allocations functions that can be safely used in the same way they are used on Illumos. Specifically, callers may safely use KM_SLEEP in contexts which perform filesystem IO. This allows us to eliminate an entire class of Linux specific changes which were previously required to avoid deadlocking the system. This change will be largely transparent to existing callers but there are a few caveats: 1. Because the headers were refactored and extraneous includes removed callers may find they need to explicitly add additional #includes. In particular, kmem_cache.h must now be explicitly includes to access the SPL's kmem cache implementation. This behavior is different from Illumos but it was done to avoid always masking the Linux slab functions when kmem.h is included. 2. Callers, like Lustre, which made assumptions about the definitions of KM_SLEEP, KM_NOSLEEP, and KM_PUSHPAGE will need to be updated. Other callers such as ZFS which did not will not require changes. 3. KM_PUSHPAGE is no longer overloaded to imply GFP_NOIO. It retains its original meaning of allowing allocations to access reserved memory. KM_PUSHPAGE callers can be converted back to KM_SLEEP. 4. The KM_NODEBUG flags has been retired and the default warning threshold increased to 32k. 5. The kmem_virt() functions has been removed.

Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible. A limit of 4M still lets us reasonably comfortably allocate a limited number of 1MB objects. Finally, the kmem:slab_small and kmem:slab_large SPLAT tests were extended to provide better test coverage of various object sizes and alignments. Caches are created with random parameters and their basic functionality is verified by allocating several slabs worth of objects. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

Refactor generic memory allocation interfaces This patch achieves the following goals: 1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were mapped to gfp flags. 2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled, and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered. This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to different memory management strategies employed by the respective kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required. 3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and --enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. 4. Improve portability by exposing an implementation of the memory allocations functions that can be safely used in the same way they are used on Illumos. Specifically, callers may safely use KM_SLEEP in contexts which perform filesystem IO. This allows us to eliminate an entire class of Linux specific changes which were previously required to avoid deadlocking the system. This change will be largely transparent to existing callers but there are a few caveats: 1. Because the headers were refactored and extraneous includes removed callers may find they need to explicitly add additional #includes. In particular, kmem_cache.h must now be explicitly includes to access the SPL's kmem cache implementation. This behavior is different from Illumos but it was done to avoid always masking the Linux slab functions when kmem.h is included. 2. Callers, like Lustre, which made assumptions about the definitions of KM_SLEEP, KM_NOSLEEP, and KM_PUSHPAGE will need to be updated. Other callers such as ZFS which did not will not require changes. 3. KM_PUSHPAGE is no longer overloaded to imply GFP_NOIO. It retains its original meaning of allowing allocations to access reserved memory. KM_PUSHPAGE callers can be converted back to KM_SLEEP. 4. The KM_NODEBUG flags has been retired and the default warning threshold increased to 32k. 5. The kmem_virt() functions has been removed.

Fix kmem cache deadlock logic The kmem cache implementation always adds new slabs by dispatching a task to the spl_kmem_cache taskq to perform the allocation. This is done because large slabs must be allocated using vmalloc(). It is possible these allocations will block on IO because the GFP_NOIO flag is not honored. This can result in a deadlock. Therefore, a deadlock detection strategy was implemented to deal with this case. When it is determined, by timeout, that the spl_kmem_cache thread has deadlocked attempting to add a new slab. Then all callers attempting to allocate from the cache fall back to using kmalloc() which does honor all passed flags. This logic was correct but an optimization in the code allowed for a deadlock. Because only slabs backed by vmalloc() can deadlock in the way described above. An optimization was made to only invoke this deadlock detection code for vmalloc() backed caches. This had the advantage of making it easy to distinguish these objects when they were freed. But this isn't strictly safe. If all the spl_kmem_cache threads end up deadlocked than we can't grow any of the other caches either. This can once again result in a deadlock if memory needs to be allocated from one of these other caches to ensure forward progress. The fix here is to remove the optimization which limits this fall back allocation stratagy to vmalloc() backed caches. Doing this means we may need to take the cache lock in spl_kmem_cache_free() call path. But this small cost can be mitigated by ignoring objects with virtual addresses. For good measure the default number of spl_kmem_cache threads has been increased from 1 to 4, and made tunable. This alone wouldn't resolve the original issue since it's still possible for all the threads to be deadlocked. However, it does help responsiveness by ensuring that a single deadlocked spl_kmem_cache thread doesn't block allocations from other caches until the timeout is reached.

Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible.

Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible.

Refactor generic memory allocation interfaces This patch achieves the following goals: 1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were mapped to gfp flags. 2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled, and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered. This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to different memory management strategies employed by the respective kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required. 3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and --enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. 4. Improve portability by exposing an implementation of the memory allocations functions that can be safely used in the same way they are used on Illumos. Specifically, callers may safely use KM_SLEEP in contexts which perform filesystem IO. This allows us to eliminate an entire class of Linux specific changes which were previously required to avoid deadlocking the system. This change will be largely transparent to existing callers but there are a few caveats: 1. Because the headers were refactored and extraneous includes removed callers may find they need to explicitly add additional #includes. In particular, kmem_cache.h must now be explicitly includes to access the SPL's kmem cache implementation. This behavior is different from Illumos but it was done to avoid always masking the Linux slab functions when kmem.h is included. 2. Callers, like Lustre, which made assumptions about the definitions of KM_SLEEP, KM_NOSLEEP, and KM_PUSHPAGE will need to be updated. Other callers such as ZFS which did not will not require changes. 3. KM_PUSHPAGE is no longer overloaded to imply GFP_NOIO. It retains its original meaning of allowing allocations to access reserved memory. KM_PUSHPAGE callers can be converted back to KM_SLEEP. 4. The KM_NODEBUG flags has been retired and the default warning threshold increased to 32k. 5. The kmem_virt() functions has been removed.

Refactor generic memory allocation interfaces This patch achieves the following goals: 1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were mapped to gfp flags. 2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled, and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered. This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to different memory management strategies employed by the respective kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required. 3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and --enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. 4.

Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible. A limit of 4M still lets us reasonably comfortably allocate a limited number of 1MB objects. Finally, the kmem:slab_small and kmem:slab_large SPLAT tests were extended to provide better test coverage of various object sizes and alignments. Caches are created with random parameters and their basic functionality is verified by allocating several slabs worth of objects. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

Refactor generic memory allocation interfaces This patch achieves the following goals: 1. It replaces the preprocessor kmem flag to gfp flag mapping with proper translation logic. This eliminates the potential for surprises that were previously possible where kmem flags were mapped to gfp flags. 2. It maps vmem_alloc() allocations to kmem_alloc() for allocations sized less than or equal to the newly-added spl_kmem_alloc_max parameter. This ensures that small allocations will not contend on a single global lock, large allocations can still be handled, and potentially limited virtual address space will not be squandered. This behavior is entirely different than under Illumos due to different memory management strategies employed by the respective kernels. However, this functionally provides the semantics required. 3. The --disable-debug-kmem, --enable-debug-kmem (default), and --enable-debug-kmem-tracking allocators have been unified in to a single spl_kmem_alloc_impl() allocation function. This was done to simplify the code and make it more maintainable. 4. Improve portability by exposing an implementation of the memory allocations functions that can be safely used in the same way they are used on Illumos. Specifically, callers may safely use KM_SLEEP in contexts which perform filesystem IO. This allows us to eliminate an entire class of Linux specific changes which were previously required to avoid deadlocking the system. This change will be largely transparent to existing callers but there are a few caveats: 1. Because the headers were refactored and extraneous includes removed callers may find they need to explicitly add additional #includes. In particular, kmem_cache.h must now be explicitly includes to access the SPL's kmem cache implementation. This behavior is different from Illumos but it was done to avoid always masking the Linux slab functions when kmem.h is included. 2. Callers, like Lustre, which made assumptions about the definitions of KM_SLEEP, KM_NOSLEEP, and KM_PUSHPAGE will need to be updated. Other callers such as ZFS which did not will not require changes. 3. KM_PUSHPAGE is no longer overloaded to imply GFP_NOIO.

Fix kmem cache deadlock logic The kmem cache implementation always adds new slabs by dispatching a task to the spl_kmem_cache taskq to perform the allocation. This is done because large slabs must be allocated using vmalloc(). It is possible these allocations will block on IO because the GFP_NOIO flag is not honored. This can result in a deadlock. Therefore, a deadlock detection strategy was implemented to deal with this case. When it is determined, by timeout, that the spl_kmem_cache thread has deadlocked attempting to add a new slab. Then all callers attempting to allocate from the cache fall back to using kmalloc() which does honor all passed flags. This logic was correct but an optimization in the code allowed for a deadlock. Because only slabs backed by vmalloc() can deadlock in the way described above. An optimization was made to only invoke this deadlock detection code for vmalloc() backed caches. This had the advantage of making it easy to distinguish these objects when they were freed. But this isn't strictly safe. If all the spl_kmem_cache threads end up deadlocked than we can't grow any of the other caches either. This can once again result in a deadlock if memory needs to be allocated from one of these other caches to ensure forward progress. The fix here is to remove the optimization which limits this fall back allocation stratagy to vmalloc() backed caches. Doing this means we may need to take the cache lock in spl_kmem_cache_free() call path. But this small cost can be mitigated by ignoring objects with virtual addresses. For good measure the default number of spl_kmem_cache threads has been increased from 1 to 4, and made tunable. This alone wouldn't resolve the original issue since it's still possible for all the threads to be deadlocked. However, it does help responsiveness by ensuring that a single deadlocked spl_kmem_cache thread doesn't block allocations from other caches until the timeout is reached.

Refine slab cache sizing This change is designed to improve the memory utilization of slabs by more carefully setting their size. The way the code currently works is problematic for slabs which contain large objects (>1MB). This is due to slabs being unconditionally rounded up to a power of two which may result in unused space at the end of the slab. The reason the existing code rounds up every slab is because it assumes it will backed by the buddy allocator. Since the buddy allocator can only performs power of two allocations this is desirable because it avoids wasting any space. However, this logic breaks down if slab is backed by vmalloc() which operates at a page level granularity. In this case, the optimal thing to do is calculate the minimum required slab size given certain constraints (object size, alignment, objects/slab, etc). Therefore, this patch reworks the spl_slab_size() function so that it sizes KMC_KMEM slabs differently than KMC_VMEM slabs. KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible. A limit of 4M still lets us reasonably comfortably allocate a limited number of 1MB objects. Finally, the kmem:slab_small and kmem:slab_large SPLAT tests were extended to provide better test coverage of various object sizes and alignments. Caches are created with random parameters and their basic functionality is verified by allocating several slabs worth of objects. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

KMC_KMEM slabs are rounded up to the nearest power of two, and KMC_VMEM slabs are allowed to be the minimum required size. This change also reduces the default number of objects per slab. This reduces how much memory a single cache object can pin, which can result in significant memory saving for highly fragmented caches. But depending on the workload it may result in slabs being allocated and freed more frequently. In practice, this has been shown to be a better default for most workloads. Also the maximum slab size has been reduced to 4MB on 32-bit systems. Due to the limited virtual address space it's critical the we be as frugal as possible. A limit of 4M still lets us reasonably comfortably allocate a limited number of 1MB objects. Finally, the kmem:slab_small and kmem:slab_large SPLAT tests were extended to provide better test coverage of various object sizes and alignments. Caches are created with random parameters and their basic functionality is verified by allocating several slabs worth of objects. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

Fix kmem cache deadlock logic The kmem cache implementation always adds new slabs by dispatching a task to the spl_kmem_cache taskq to perform the allocation. This is done because large slabs must be allocated using vmalloc(). It is possible these allocations will block on IO because the GFP_NOIO flag is not honored. This can result in a deadlock. Therefore, a deadlock detection strategy was implemented to deal with this case. When it is determined, by timeout, that the spl_kmem_cache thread has deadlocked attempting to add a new slab. Then all callers attempting to allocate from the cache fall back to using kmalloc() which does honor all passed flags. This logic was correct but an optimization in the code allowed for a deadlock. Because only slabs backed by vmalloc() can deadlock in the way described above. An optimization was made to only invoke this deadlock detection code for vmalloc() backed caches. This had the advantage of making it easy to distinguish these objects when they were freed. But this isn't strictly safe. If all the spl_kmem_cache threads end up deadlocked than we can't grow any of the other caches either. This can once again result in a deadlock if memory needs to be allocated from one of these other caches to ensure forward progress. The fix here is to remove the optimization which limits this fall back allocation stratagy to vmalloc() backed caches. Doing this means we may need to take the cache lock in spl_kmem_cache_free() call path. But this small cost can be mitigated by ignoring objects with virtual addresses. For good measure the default number of spl_kmem_cache threads has been increased from 1 to 4, and made tunable. This alone wouldn't resolve the original issue since it's still possible for all the threads to be deadlocked. However, it does help responsiveness by ensuring that a single deadlocked spl_kmem_cache thread doesn't block allocations from other caches until the timeout is reached.
