Merge tag 'slab-for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab
Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
- Freelist loading optimization (Chengming Zhou)
When the per-cpu slab is depleted and a new one loaded from the cpu
partial list, optimize the loading to avoid an irq enable/disable
cycle. This results in a 3.5% performance improvement on the "perf
bench sched messaging" test.
- Kernel boot parameters cleanup after SLAB removal (Xiongwei Song)
Due to two different main slab implementations we've had boot
parameters prefixed either slab_ and slub_ with some later becoming
an alias as both implementations gained the same functionality (i.e.
slab_nomerge vs slub_nomerge). In order to eventually get rid of the
implementation-specific names, the canonical and documented
parameters are now all prefixed slab_ and the slub_ variants become
deprecated but still working aliases.
- SLAB_ kmem_cache creation flags cleanup (Vlastimil Babka)
The flags had hardcoded #define values which became tedious and
error-prone when adding new ones. Assign the values via an enum that
takes care of providing unique bit numbers. Also deprecate
SLAB_MEM_SPREAD which was only used by SLAB, so it's a no-op since
SLAB removal. Assign it an explicit zero value. The removals of the
flag usage are handled independently in the respective subsystems,
with a final removal of any leftover usage planned for the next
release.
- Misc cleanups and fixes (Chengming Zhou, Xiaolei Wang, Zheng Yejian)
Includes removal of unused code or function parameters and a fix of a
memleak.
