Patch series "mm: improve performance of accounted kernel memory allocations", v5. This patchset improves the performance of accounted kernel memory allocations by ~30% as measured by a micro-benchmark [1]. The benchmark is very straightforward: 1M of 64 bytes-large kmalloc() allocations. Below are results with the disabled kernel memory accounting, the original state and with this patchset applied. | | Kmem disabled | Original | Patched | Delta | |-------------+---------------+----------+---------+--------| | User cgroup | 29764 | 84548 | 59078 | -30.0% | | Root cgroup | 29742 | 48342 | 31501 | -34.8% | As we can see, the patchset removes the majority of the overhead when there is no actual accounting (a task belongs to the root memory cgroup) and almost halves the accounting overhead otherwise. The main idea is to get rid of unnecessary memcg to objcg conversions and switch to a scope-based protection of objcgs, which eliminates extra operations with objcg reference counters under a rcu read lock. More details are provided in individual commit descriptions. This patch (of 5): Manually inline memcg_kmem_bypass() and active_memcg() to speed up get_obj_cgroup_from_current() by avoiding duplicate in_task() checks and active_memcg() readings. Also add a likely() macro to __get_obj_cgroup_from_memcg(): obj_cgroup_tryget() should succeed at almost all times except a very unlikely race with the memcg deletion path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
