McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Mon, 27 Apr 2020 11:02:50 -07:00 rcu/tree: Count number of batched kfree_rcu() locklessly We can relax the correctness of counting of number of queued objects in favor of not hurting performance, by locklessly sampling per-cpu counters. This should be Ok since under high memory pressure, it should not matter if we are off by a few objects while counting. The shrinker will still do the reclaim.
