mm: fix vm-scalability regression in cgroup-aware workingset code
Commit 23047a96d7cf ("mm: workingset: per-cgroup cache thrash detection") added a page->mem_cgroup lookup to the cache eviction, refault, and activation paths, as well as locking to the activation path, and the vm-scalability tests showed a regression of -23%. While the test in question is an artificial worst-case scenario that doesn't occur in real workloads - reading two sparse files in parallel at full CPU speed just to hammer the LRU paths - there is still some optimizations that can be done in those paths. Inline the lookup functions to eliminate calls. Also, page->mem_cgroup doesn't need to be stabilized when counting an activation; we merely need to hold the RCU lock to prevent the memcg from being freed. This cuts down on overhead quite a bit: 23047a96d7cfcfca 063f6715e77a7be5770d6081fe ---------------- -------------------------- %stddev %change %stddev \ | \ 21621405 +- 0% +11.3% 24069657 +- 2% vm-scalability.throughput [linux@roeck-us.net: drop unnecessary include file] [hannes@cmpxchg.org: add WARN_ON_ONCE()s] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160707194024.GA26580@cmpxchg.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160624175101.GA3024@cmpxchg.org Reported-by: Ye Xiaolong <xiaolong.ye@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
