Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/5] dcache: allocate external names from reclaimable kmalloc caches
Date:   Thu, 24 May 2018 13:00:09 +0200
Message-Id: <20180524110011.1940-4-vbabka@suse.cz>
In-Reply-To: <20180524110011.1940-1-vbabka@suse.cz>
References: <20180524110011.1940-1-vbabka@suse.cz>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

We can use the newly introduced kmalloc-reclaimable-X caches, to allocate
external names in dcache, which will take care of the proper accounting
automatically, and also improve anti-fragmentation page grouping.

This effectively reverts commit f1782c9bc547 ("dcache: account external names
as indirectly reclaimable memory") and instead passes __GFP_RECLAIMABLE to
kmalloc(). The accounting thus moves from NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES to
NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE, which is also considered in MemAvailable calculation and
overcommit decisions.

This reverts commit f1782c9bc547754f4bd3043fe8cfda53db85f13f.
