From: Greg Thelen <gthelen@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm, slab: faster active and free stats
Reading /proc/slabinfo or monitoring slabtop(1) can become very expensive
if there are many slab caches and if there are very lengthy per-node
partial and/or free lists.
Commit 07a63c41fa1f ("mm/slab: improve performance of gathering slabinfo
stats") addressed the per-node full lists which showed a significant
improvement when no objects were freed. This patch has the same
motivation and optimizes the remainder of the usecases where there are
very lengthy partial and free lists.
This patch maintains per-node active_slabs (full and partial) and
free_slabs rather than iterating the lists at runtime when reading
/proc/slabinfo.
