- Prevent destroying the kmem_cache on early failure. Destroying a kmem_cache requires work queues to be set up, but in the early failure case they are not yet initializated. So rather leak the cache instead of triggering a BUG. - Reduce parallel pool fill attempts. Refilling the object pool requires to take the global pool lock, which causes a massive performance issue when a large number of CPUs attempt to refill concurrently. It turns out that it's sufficient to let one CPU handle the refill from the to free list and in case there are not enough objects on it to allocate new objects from the kmem cache. This also splits the free list handling from the actual allocation path as that yields better results on RT where allocation is restricted to preemptible code paths. The refill from free list has no such restrictions. - Consolidate the global and the per CPU pools to use the same data structure, so all helper functions can be shared. - Simplify the object allocation/free logic. The allocation/free logic is an incomprehensible maze, which tries to utilize the to free list and the global pool in the best way. This all can be simplified into a straight forward comprehensible code flow. - Convert the allocation/free mechanism to batch mode. Transferring objects from the global pool to the per CPU pools or vice versa is done by walking the hlist and moving object by object. That not only increases the pool lock held time, it also dirties up to 17 cache lines. This can be avoided by storing the pointer to the first object in a batch of 16 objects in the objects themself and propagate it through the batch when an object is enqueued into a pool or to a temporary hlist head on allocation. This allows to move batches of objects with at max four cache lines dirtied and reduces the pool lock held time and therefore contention significantly. - Improve the object reusage The current implementation is too agressively freeing unused objects, which is counterproductive on bursty workloads like a kernel compile. Address this by: * increasing the per CPU pool size * refilling the per CPU pool from the to be freed pool when the per CPU pool emptied a batch * keeping track of object usage with a exponentially wheighted moving average which prevents the work queue callback to free objects prematuraly. This combined reduces the allocation/free rate for a full kernel compile significantly: kmem_cache_alloc() kmem_cache_free() Baseline: 380k 330k Improved: 170k 117k - A few cleanups and a more cache line friendly layout of debug information on top. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmc7ezETHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoYqOD/42X0//BzqdCs0W3jAuaSxbcncp14en kxuKJVcIOwTwiry5xnSD647YYBdXGZyEa1FR84eFpI6cM6O68mCm+Q4Ab+O02MwC 1tAAQ7fS3fhPBHip6RQtBygexH8WXH3I9BeeXkzQgMCyyObkjRSL3oLIGA4Azfuo q79LNZ5ctp9zd2DMWD/h+DEzYKr7LZfCMeoxXKLv6BdpZSS35cZhX4u7uu7DPryE AWPCFCE/bEv/QQZ9bUz9Zc8KXsclcgrPXn/ubP8NVK6IHJ2RjIXqBDzQo0C2+QVi yb/XdjmQJXNxb3RZxOpwwrefy/jhd8h41rY3prnfnHBU8XU7IFUgN6MfAC46peZR dXOLGxsLhJk2xaGcddqD7rSDA1hm7Dpn6ZtTbgiaxWd+ksUCxQckkzWCYlGXl3Az 4M0LeexWEBKQYBAb1XjAOmfWmndVZWJ6QDFNMN67o0YZt4Uh2APSV/0fevUBGjzT nVWxDzN0a/0kMuvmFtwnReVnnGKixC4X3AV4/mvNYQOoRhSrTxjwkBn2TxvZ+3Sh v5uNGkUGe3dXS4XBWbytm/HeDdzKZ/C3KATm+bHSqQ+/ktxuCp13EhiursYf5Yc/ 44T8sPEcSTj+xWHLZpsJfz0lpQM4q3KJj0HPQkSIHUD5KWTMkBSFonuBF6jHkf9H R4OsmrvXTdFG5g== =zxbA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'core-debugobjects-2024-11-18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull debugobjects updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Prevent destroying the kmem_cache on early failure.
