From d2658f2052c7db6ec0a79977205f8cf1cb9effc2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergey Senozhatsky Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2023 16:46:39 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] zsmalloc: allow only one active pool compaction context zsmalloc pool can be compacted concurrently by many contexts, e.g. cc1 handle_mm_fault() do_anonymous_page() __alloc_pages_slowpath() try_to_free_pages() do_try_to_free_pages( lru_gen_shrink_node() shrink_slab() do_shrink_slab() zs_shrinker_scan() zs_compact() Pool compaction is currently (basically) single-threaded as it is performed under pool->lock. Having multiple compaction threads results in unnecessary contention, as each thread competes for pool->lock. This, in turn, affects all zsmalloc operations such as zs_malloc(), zs_map_object(), zs_free(), etc. Introduce the pool->compaction_in_progress atomic variable, which ensures that only one compaction context can run at a time. This reduces overall pool->lock contention in (corner) cases when many contexts attempt to shrink zspool simultaneously.
