/*
 * vmem_* is an interface to a low level arena-based memory allocator on
 * Illumos that is used to allocate virtual address space. The kmem SLAB
 * allocator allocates slabs from it. Then the generic allocation functions
 * kmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}() are layered on top of SLAB allocators.
 *
 * On Linux, the primary means of doing allocations is via kmalloc(), which
 * is similarly layered on top of something called the buddy allocator. The
 * buddy allocator is not available to kernel modules, it uses physical
 * memory addresses rather than virtual memory addresses and is prone to
 * fragmentation.
 *
 * Linux sets aside a relatively small address space for in-kernel virtual
 * memory from which allocations can be done using vmalloc().  It might seem
 * like a good idea to use vmalloc() to implement something similar to
 * Illumos' allocator. However, this has the following problems:
 *
 * 1. Page directory table allocations are hard coded to use GFP_KERNEL.
 *    Consequently, any KM_PUSHPAGE or KM_NOSLEEP allocations done using
 *    vmalloc() will not have proper semantics.
 *
 * 2. Address space exhaustion is a real issue on 32-bit platforms where
 *    only a few 100MB are available. The kernel will handle it by spinning
 *    when it runs out of address space.
 *
 * 3. All vmalloc() allocations and frees are protected by a single global
 *    lock which serializes all allocations.
 *
 * 4. Accessing /proc/meminfo and /proc/vmallocinfo will iterate the entire
 *    list. The former will sum the allocations while the latter will print
 *    them to user space in a way that user space can keep the lock held
 *    indefinitely.  When the total number of mapped allocations is large
 *    (several 100,000) a large amount of time will be spent waiting on locks.
 *
 * 5. Linux has a wait_on_bit() locking primitive that assumes physical
 *    memory is used, it simply does not work on virtual memory.  Certain
 *    Linux structures (e.g. the superblock) use them and might be embedded
 *    into a structure from Illumos.  This makes using Linux virtual memory
 *    unsafe in certain situations.
 *
 * It follows that we cannot obtain identical semantics to those on Illumos.
 * Consequently, we implement the kmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}() functions in
 * such a way that they can be used as drop-in replacements for small vmem_*
 * allocations (8MB in size or smaller) and map vmem_{alloc,zalloc,free}()
 * to them.
