Currently cgroup-v1's memcg_stat_show traverses the memcg tree ~17 times to collect the stats while cgroup-v2's memory_stat_show traverses the memcg tree thrice. On a large machine, a couple thousand memcgs is very normal and if the churn is high and memcgs stick around during to several reasons, tens of thousands of nodes in memcg tree can exist. This patch has refactored and shared the stat collection code between cgroup-v1 and cgroup-v2 and has reduced the tree traversal to just one. I ran a simple benchmark which reads the root_mem_cgroup's stat file 1000 times in the presense of 2500 memcgs on cgroup-v1. The results are: Without the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m1.663s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.660s With the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m0.468s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.467s Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180724224635.143944-1-shakeelb@google.com Signed-off-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Bruce Merry <bmerry@ska.ac.za> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
