[0/9] memcg: cleanup per-cpu stock

Message

Shakeel Butt March 15, 2025, 5:49 p.m. UTC

This is a cleanup series which is trying to simplify the memcg per-cpu
stock code, particularly it tries to remove unnecessary dependencies on
local_lock of per-cpu memcg stock. The eight patch from Vlastimil
optimizes the charge path by combining the charging and accounting.

This series is based on next-20250314 plus two following patches:

Shakeel Butt (8):
  memcg: remove root memcg check from refill_stock
  memcg: decouple drain_obj_stock from local stock
  memcg: introduce memcg_uncharge
  memcg: manually inline __refill_stock
  memcg: no refilling stock from obj_cgroup_release
  memcg: do obj_cgroup_put inside drain_obj_stock
  memcg: use __mod_memcg_state in drain_obj_stock
  memcg: manually inline replace_stock_objcg

Vlastimil Babka (1):
  memcg: combine slab obj stock charging and accounting

Unfortunately the bpf tree has been making changes in the same area of
memcontrol.c.  01d37228d331 ("memcg: Use trylock to access memcg
stock_lock.")

Sigh.  We're at -rc7 and I don't think it's worth working around that
for a cleanup series.  So I'm inclined to just defer this series until
the next -rc cycle.

If BPF merges reasonably early in the next merge window then please
promptly send this along and I should be able to squeak it into
6.15-rc1.

Seems reasonable to me and thanks for taking a look.
