[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/3] mem: fix 32-bit memory upper limit for non-legacy mode

[Anatoly Burakov]

32-bit mode has an upper limit on amount of VA space it can preallocate,
but the original implementation used the wrong constant, resulting in
failure to initialize due to integer overflow. Fix it by using the
correct constant.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/3] mem: improve memory preallocation on 32-bit

[Anatoly Burakov]

Previously, if we couldn't preallocate VA space on 32-bit for
one page size, we simply bailed out, even though we could've
tried allocating VA space with other page sizes.

For example, if user had both 1G and 2M pages enabled, and
has asked DPDK to allocate memory on both sockets, DPDK
would've tried to allocate VA space for 1x1G page on both
sockets, failed and never tried again, even though it
could've allocated the same 1G of VA space for 512x2M pages.

Fix this by retrying with different page sizes if VA space
reservation failed.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 3/3] mem: improve autodetection of hugepage counts on 32-bit

[Anatoly Burakov]

For non-legacy mode, we are preallocating space for hugepages, so
we know in advance which pages we will be able to allocate, and
which we won't. However, the init procedure was using hugepage
counts gathered from sysfs and paid no attention to hugepage
sizes that were actually available for reservation, and failed
on attempts to reserve unavailable pages.

Fix this by limiting total page counts by number of pages
actually preallocated.

Also, VA preallocate procedure only looks at mountpoints that are
available, and expects pages to exist if a mountpoint exists. That
might not necessarily be the case, so also check if there are
hugepages available for a particular page size on a particular
NUMA node.

Signed-off-by: Anatoly Burakov <anatoly.burakov@intel.com>

Notes:
    v3:
    - Added a check to see if pages are actually available before
      reserving VA space for them. Only applies to 32-bit non-legacy.
