2 * Generic pidhash and scalable, time-bounded PID allocator
4 * (C) 2002 William Irwin, IBM
5 * (C) 2002 Ingo Molnar, Red Hat
7 * pid-structures are backing objects for tasks sharing a given ID to chain
8 * against. There is very little to them aside from hashing them and
9 * parking tasks using given ID's on a list.
11 * The hash is always changed with the tasklist_lock write-acquired,
12 * and the hash is only accessed with the tasklist_lock at least
13 * read-acquired, so there's no additional SMP locking needed here.
15 * We have a list of bitmap pages, which bitmaps represent the PID space.
16 * Allocating and freeing PIDs is completely lockless. The worst-case
17 * allocation scenario when all but one out of 1 million PIDs possible are
18 * allocated already: the scanning of 32 list entries and at most PAGE_SIZE
19 * bytes. The typical fastpath is a single successful setbit. Freeing is O(1).

43 * PID-map pages start out as NULL, they get allocated upon
44 * first use and are never deallocated. This way a low pid_max
45 * value does not cause lots of bitmaps to be allocated, but
46 * the scheme scales to up to 4 million PIDs, runtime.
