While I don't anticipate an issue such as the one fixed by this patch, I am wondering if we should move these to their own WQ_RECLAIM queues for added robustness since otherwise that will result in CB invocation (And thus memory freeing delays).

Paul? For RCU Tasks, the memory traffic has been much lower. But maybe someday someone will drop a million trampolines all at once. But let's see that problem before we fix some random problem that we believe will happen, but which proves to be only slightly related to the problem that actually does happen. ;-) Thanx, Paul > kernel/rcu/tasks.h: queue_work_on(cpuwq, system_wq, &rtpcp_next->rtp_work); > kernel/rcu/tasks.h: queue_work_on(cpuwq, system_wq, &rtpcp_next->rtp_work); > > For this patch: > Reviewed-by: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com> > > thanks, > > - Joel > > > > --- > > mm/slab_common.c | 14 ++++++++++---- > > 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/mm/slab_common.c b/mm/slab_common.c > > index 4030907b6b7d..4c9f0a87f733 100644 > > --- a/mm/slab_common.c > > +++ b/mm/slab_common.c > > @@ -1304,6 +1304,8 @@ module_param(rcu_min_cached_objs, int, 0444); > > static int rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec = 5000; > > module_param(rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec, int, 0444); > > > > +static struct workqueue_struct *rcu_reclaim_wq; > > + > > /* Maximum number of jiffies to wait before draining a batch. */ > > #define KFREE_DRAIN_JIFFIES (5 * HZ) > > #define KFREE_N_BATCHES 2 > > @@ -1632,10 +1634,10 @@ __schedule_delayed_monitor_work(struct kfree_rcu_cpu *krcp) > > if (delayed_work_pending(&krcp->monitor_work)) { > > delay_left = krcp->monitor_work.timer.expires - jiffies; > > if (delay < delay_left) > > - mod_delayed_work(system_unbound_wq, &krcp->monitor_work, delay); > > + mod_delayed_work(rcu_reclaim_wq, &krcp->monitor_work, delay); > > return; > > } > > - queue_delayed_work(system_unbound_wq, &krcp->monitor_work, delay); > > + queue_delayed_work(rcu_reclaim_wq, &krcp->monitor_work, delay); > > } > > > > static void > > @@ -1733,7 +1735,7 @@ kvfree_rcu_queue_batch(struct kfree_rcu_cpu *krcp) > > // "free channels", the batch can handle.

Apart of that, since kvfree_rcu() does reclaim memory it is worth to go with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM type of wq because it is designed for this purpose.
