Joonsoo Kim 86d9f48534 mm/slab: fix kmemcg cache creation delayed issue ... There is a bug report that SLAB makes extreme load average due to over 2000 kworker thread. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172981 This issue is caused by kmemcg feature that try to create new set of kmem_caches for each memcg. Recently, kmem_cache creation is slowed by synchronize_sched() and futher kmem_cache creation is also delayed since kmem_cache creation is synchronized by a global slab_mutex lock. So, the number of kworker that try to create kmem_cache increases quietly. synchronize_sched() is for lockless access to node's shared array but it's not needed when a new kmem_cache is created. So, this patch rules out that case. Fixes: 801faf0db8 ("mm/slab: lockless decision to grow cache") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1475734855-4837-1-git-send-email-iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com Reported-by: Doug Smythies <dsmythies@telus.net> Tested-by: Doug Smythies <dsmythies@telus.net> Signed-off-by: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>		2016-10-27 18:43:42 -07:00
