Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] mm/slub: Introduce two counters for partial objects
The node list_lock in count_partial() spends long time iterating
in case of large amount of partial page lists, which can cause
thunder herd effect to the list_lock contention.
We have HSF RT(High-speed Service Framework Response-Time) monitors,
the RT figures fluctuated randomly, then we deployed a tool detecting
"irq off" and "preempt off" to dump the culprit's calltrace, capturing
the list_lock cost nearly 100ms with irq off issued by "ss", this also
caused network timeouts.
This patch introduces two counters to maintain the actual number
of partial objects dynamically instead of iterating the partial
page lists with list_lock held.
New counters of kmem_cache_node: partial_free_objs, partial_total_objs.
The main operations are under list_lock in slow path, its performance
impact should be minimal except the __slab_free() path which will be
addressed later.
