- * One mutex to rule them all.
- *
- * The following mutex is grabbed in the outermost public alloc/free
- * interface functions and released only when the operation is
- * complete. As such, every function in this file other than the
- * outermost functions are called under pcpu_mutex.
- *
- * It can easily be switched to use spinlock such that only the area
- * allocation and page population commit are protected with it doing
- * actual [de]allocation without holding any lock. However, given
- * what this allocator does, I think it's better to let them run
- * sequentially.
+ * Synchronization rules.
+ *
+ * There are two locks - pcpu_alloc_mutex and pcpu_lock. The former
+ * protects allocation/reclaim paths, chunks and chunk->page arrays.
+ * The latter is a spinlock and protects the index data structures -
+ * chunk slots, rbtree, chunks and area maps in chunks.
+ *
+ * During allocation, pcpu_alloc_mutex is kept locked all the time and
+ * pcpu_lock is grabbed and released as necessary. All actual memory
+ * allocations are done using GFP_KERNEL with pcpu_lock released.
+ *
+ * Free path accesses and alters only the index data structures, so it
+ * can be safely called from atomic context. When memory needs to be
+ * returned to the system, free path schedules reclaim_work which
+ * grabs both pcpu_alloc_mutex and pcpu_lock, unlinks chunks to be
+ * reclaimed, release both locks and frees the chunks. Note that it's
+ * necessary to grab both locks to remove a chunk from circulation as
+ * allocation path might be referencing the chunk with only
+ * pcpu_alloc_mutex locked.
