From: Alex Shi <alexs@xxxxxxxxx> Set selection criteria when fill per cpu partial in slow allocation path, and check the PCP left space before filling, even maybe the data from another CPU. The patch can bring another 1.5% performance increase on netperf loopback testing for our 4 or 2 sockets machines, include sandbridge, core2 Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@xxxxxxxxx> --- mm/slub.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ 1 files changed, 31 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/mm/slub.c b/mm/slub.c index 65d901f..72df387 100644 --- a/mm/slub.c +++ b/mm/slub.c @@ -1542,25 +1542,44 @@ static void *get_partial_node(struct kmem_cache *s, spin_lock(&n->list_lock); list_for_each_entry_safe(page, page2, &n->partial, lru) { - void *t = acquire_slab(s, n, page, object == NULL); int available; + void *t; + struct page *oldpage; + int pobjects; - if (!t) - break; if (!object) { - c->page = page; - c->node = page_to_nid(page); - stat(s, ALLOC_FROM_PARTIAL); - object = t; - available = page->objects - page->inuse; + t = acquire_slab(s, n, page, object == NULL); + if (!t) + break; + else { + c->page = page; + c->node = page_to_nid(page); + stat(s, ALLOC_FROM_PARTIAL); + object = t; + } } else { - page->freelist = t; - available = put_cpu_partial(s, page, 0); + oldpage = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->partial); + pobjects = oldpage ? oldpage->pobjects : 0; + + if (pobjects > s->cpu_partial / 2) + break; + + available = page->objects - page->inuse; + if (available >= s->cpu_partial / 4) { + t = acquire_slab(s, n, page, object == NULL); + if (!t) + break; + else { + page->freelist = t; + if (put_cpu_partial(s, page, 0) > + s->cpu_partial / 2) + break; + } + } } - if (kmem_cache_debug(s) || available > s->cpu_partial / 2) + if (kmem_cache_debug(s)) break; - } spin_unlock(&n->list_lock); return object; -- 1.7.0.1 -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
