Subject: mm: mmap_lock: optimize mmap_lock tracepoints
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2024 09:16:17 -0800

We are starting to deploy mmap_lock tracepoint monitoring across our
fleet and the early results showed that these tracepoints are consuming
significant amount of CPUs in kernfs_path_from_node when enabled.

It seems like the kernel is trying to resolve the cgroup path in the
fast path of the locking code path when the tracepoints are enabled. In
addition for some application their metrics are regressing when
monitoring is enabled.

The cgroup path resolution can be slow and should not be done in the
fast path. Most userspace tools, like bpftrace, provides functionality
to get the cgroup path from cgroup id, so let's just trace the cgroup
id and the users can use better tools to get the path in the slow path.
