As explained in [1], we would like to remove SLOB if possible.
- There are no known users that need its somewhat lower memory footprint
so much that they cannot handle SLUB (after some modifications by the
previous patches) instead.- It is an extra maintenance burden, and a number of features are
incompatible with it.- It blocks the API improvement of allowing kfree() on objects allocated
via kmem_cache_alloc().As the first step, rename the CONFIG_SLOB option in the slab allocator
configuration choice to CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED. Add CONFIG_SLOB
depending on CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED as an internal option to avoid code
churn. This will cause existing .config files and defconfigs with
CONFIG_SLOB=y to silently switch to the default (and recommended
replacement) SLUB, while still allowing SLOB to be configured by anyone
that notices and needs it. But those should contact the slab maintainers
and linux-mm@kvack.org as explained in the updated help. With no valid
objections, the plan is to update the existing defconfigs to SLUB and
remove SLOB in a few cycles.To make SLUB more suitable replacement for SLOB, a CONFIG_SLUB_TINY
option was introduced to limit SLUB's memory overhead.
There is a number of defconfigs specifying CONFIG_SLOB=y. As part of
this patch, update them to select CONFIG_SLUB and CONFIG_SLUB_TINY.[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/b35c3f82-f67b-2103-7d82-7a7ba7521439@suse.cz/

This patchset allows to have a single kernel for sv39 and sv48 without
being relocatable.The idea comes from Arnd Bergmann who suggested to do the same as x86,
that is mapping the kernel to the end of the address space, which allows
the kernel to be linked at the same address for both sv39 and sv48 and
then does not require to be relocated at runtime.This implements sv48 support at runtime. The kernel will try to boot
with 4-level page table and will fallback to 3-level if the HW does not
support it. Folding the 4th level into a 3-level page table has almost
no cost at runtime.Note that kasan region had to be moved to the end of the address space
since its location must be known at compile-time and then be valid for
both sv39 and sv48 (and sv57 that is coming).* riscv-sv48-v3:

CONFIG_MAXPHYSMEM_* are actually never used, even the nommu defconfigs
selecting the MAXPHYSMEM_2GB had no effects on PAGE_OFFSET since it was
preempted by !MMU case right before.In addition, the move of the kernel mapping at the end of the address
space broke the use of MAXPHYSMEM_2G with MMU since it defines PAGE_OFFSET
at the same address as the kernel mapping.Reported-by: Geert Uytterhoeven

The nommu_k210_defconfig default configuration allows booting a Canaan
Kendryte K210 SoC based boards using an embedded intramfs cpio file.
Modifying this configuration to enable support for the board SD card is
not trivial for all users. To help beginners getting started with these
boards, add the nommu_k210_sdcard_defconfig default configuration file
to set all configuration options necessary to use the board mmc-spi sd
card for the root file system.This new configuration adds support for the block layer, the mmc-spi
driver and modifies the boot options to specify the rootfs device as
mmcblk0p1 (first partition of the sd card block device). The ext2 file
system is selected by default to encourage its use as that results in
only about 4KB added to the kernel image size. As ext2 does not have
journaling, the boot options specify a read-only mount of the file
system. Similarly to the smaller nommu_k210_defconfig, this new default
configuration disables virtual terminal support to reduce the kernel
image size.The default device tree selected is unchanged, specifying the simple
"k210_generic" device tree file. The user must change this setting to
specify the device tree suitable for the board being used
(sipeed_maix_bit, sipeed_maix_dock, sipeed_maix_go, sipeed_maixduino or
canaan_kd233).Signed-off-by: Damien Le Moal
