Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 16/17] mm: make vma cache SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
* Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@...gle.com> [241226 12:07]:
> To enable SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU for vma cache we need to ensure that
> object reuse before RCU grace period is over will be detected by
> lock_vma_under_rcu(). Current checks are sufficient as long as vma
> is detached before it is freed. Implement this guarantee by calling
> vma_ensure_detached() before vma is freed and make vm_area_cachep
> SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU. This will facilitate vm_area_struct reuse and
> will minimize the number of call_rcu() calls.
