Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 00/15] Slab Movable Objects (SMO)
Hi,
Another iteration of the SMO patch set, updates to this version are
restricted to the dcache patch #14.
Applies on top of Linus' tree (tag: v5.1-rc6).
This is a patch set implementing movable objects within the SLUB
allocator. This is work based on Christopher Lameter's patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/project/lkml/list/?series=377335
The original code logic is from that set and implemented by Christopher.
Clean up, refactoring, documentation, and additional features by myself.
Responsibility for any bugs remaining falls solely with myself.
Changes to this version:
Re-write the dcache Slab Movable Objects isolate/migrate functions.
Based on review/suggestions by Alexander on the last version.
In this version the isolate function loops over the object vector and
builds a shrink list for all objects that have refcount==0 AND are NOT
on anyone else's shrink list. A pointer to this list is returned from
the isolate function and passed to the migrate function (by the SMO
infrastructure). The dentry migration function d_partial_shrink()
simply calls shrink_dentry_list() on the received shrink list pointer
and frees the memory associated with the list_head.
Hopefully if this is all ok I can move on to violating the inode
slab cache :)
FWIW testing on a VM in Qemu brings this mild benefit to the dentry slab
cache with no _apparent_ negatives.

Please note, this dentry shrink implementation is 'best effort', results
vary. This is as is expected. We are trying to unobtrusively shrink
the dentry cache.
thanks,
Tobin.
