Subject: [PATCH v6 2/4] mm/memcg: Cache vmstat data in percpu memcg_stock_pcp
Before the new slab memory controller with per object byte charging,
charging and vmstat data update happen only when new slab pages are
allocated or freed. Now they are done with every kmem_cache_alloc()
and kmem_cache_free(). This causes additional overhead for workloads
that generate a lot of alloc and free calls.
The memcg_stock_pcp is used to cache byte charge for a specific
obj_cgroup to reduce that overhead. To further reducing it, this patch
makes the vmstat data cached in the memcg_stock_pcp structure as well
until it accumulates a page size worth of update or when other cached
data change. Caching the vmstat data in the per-cpu stock eliminates two
writes to non-hot cachelines for memcg specific as well as memcg-lruvecs
specific vmstat data by a write to a hot local stock cacheline.
On a 2-socket Cascade Lake server with instrumentation enabled and this
patch applied, it was found that about 20% (634400 out of 3243830)
of the time when mod_objcg_state() is called leads to an actual call
to __mod_objcg_state() after initial boot. When doing parallel kernel
build, the figure was about 17% (24329265 out of 142512465). So caching
the vmstat data reduces the number of calls to __mod_objcg_state()
by more than 80%.
