With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to address the issue. SLAB_DESTORY_BY_RCU caches need to flush all RCU operations before destruction because slab pages are freed through RCU and they need to be able to dereference the associated kmem_cache. Currently, it's done synchronously with rcu_barrier(). As rcu_barrier() is expensive time-wise, slab implements a batching mechanism so that rcu_barrier() can be done for multiple caches at the same time. Unfortunately, the rcu_barrier() is in synchronous path which is called while holding cgroup_mutex and the batching is too limited to be actually helpful. This patch updates the cache release path so that the batching is asynchronous and global. All SLAB_DESTORY_BY_RCU caches are queued globally and a work item consumes the list. The work item calls rcu_barrier() only once for all caches that are currently queued. * release_caches() is removed and shutdown_cache() now either directly release the cache or schedules a RCU callback to do that. This makes the cache inaccessible once shutdown_cache() is called and makes it impossible for shutdown_memcg_caches() to do memcg-specific cleanups afterwards. Move memcg-specific part into a helper, unlink_memcg_cache(), and make shutdown_cache() call it directly.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
