[PATCH] mm/list_lru: Optimize memcg_drain_list_lru_node()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since commit 2c80cd57c743 ("mm/list_lru.c: fix list_lru_count_node()
to be race free"), we are tracking the total number of lru
entries in a list_lru_node in its nr_items field.  In the case of
memcg_drain_list_lru_node(), there is nothing to be done if nr_items
is 0.  We don't even need to take the nlru->lock as no new lru entry
could be added by a racing list_lru_add() to the draining src_idx memcg
at this point.
