Subject: [PATCH v6 08/10] mm: rework non-root kmem_cache lifecycle management
Date:   Tue, 4 Jun 2019 19:44:52 -0700

Currently each charged slab page holds a reference to the cgroup to
which it's charged. Kmem_caches are held by the memcg and are released
all together with the memory cgroup. It means that none of kmem_caches
are released unless at least one reference to the memcg exists, which
is very far from optimal.

Let's rework it in a way that allows releasing individual kmem_caches
as soon as the cgroup is offline, the kmem_cache is empty and there
are no pending allocations.

To make it possible, let's introduce a new percpu refcounter for
non-root kmem caches. The counter is initialized to the percpu mode,
and is switched to the atomic mode during kmem_cache deactivation. The
counter is bumped for every charged page and also for every running
allocation. So the kmem_cache can't be released unless all allocations
complete.

To shutdown non-active empty kmem_caches, let's reuse the work queue,
previously used for the kmem_cache deactivation. Once the reference
counter reaches 0, let's schedule an asynchronous kmem_cache release.

* I used the following simple approach to test the performance
(stolen from another patchset by T. Harding):

    time find / -name fname-no-exist
    echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
    repeat 10 times

Results:

So it looks like the difference is not noticeable in this test.
