mm: memcontrol: use per-cpu stocks for socket memory uncharging
We've noticed a quite noticeable performance overhead on some hosts with
significant network traffic when socket memory accounting is enabled.
Perf top shows that socket memory uncharging path is hot:
2.13% [kernel] [k] page_counter_cancel
1.14% [kernel] [k] __sk_mem_reduce_allocated
1.14% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock
0.87% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
0.84% [kernel] [k] tcp_ack
0.84% [kernel] [k] ixgbe_poll
0.83% < workload >
0.82% [kernel] [k] enqueue_entity
0.68% [kernel] [k] __fget
0.68% [kernel] [k] tcp_delack_timer_handler
0.67% [kernel] [k] __schedule
0.60% < workload >
0.59% [kernel] [k] __inet6_lookup_established
0.55% [kernel] [k] __switch_to
0.55% [kernel] [k] menu_select
0.54% libc-2.20.so [.] __memcpy_avx_unaligned
To address this issue, the existing per-cpu stock infrastructure can be
used.
refill_stock() can be called from mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() to move
charge to a per-cpu stock instead of calling atomic
page_counter_uncharge().
To prevent the uncontrolled growth of per-cpu stocks, refill_stock()
will explicitly drain the cached charge, if the cached value exceeds
CHARGE_BATCH.
This allows significantly optimize the load:
1.21% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock
1.01% [kernel] [k] ixgbe_poll
0.92% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
