In preparation for switching vmstat shepherd to flush
per-CPU counters remotely, switch the __{mod,inc,dec} functions that
modify the counters to use cmpxchg.
To facilitate reviewing, functions are ordered in the text file, as:
__{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_LOCAL
{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
#else
{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
#endif
This patch defines the __ versions for the
CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_LOCAL case to be their non-"__" counterparts:
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_LOCAL
{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
__{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state = {mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
#else
{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
__{mod,inc,dec}_{zone,node}_page_state
#endif
To test the performance difference, a page allocator microbenchmark:
https://github.com/netoptimizer/prototype-kernel/blob/master/kernel/mm/bench/page_bench01.c
with loops=1000000 was used, on Intel Core i7-11850H @ 2.50GHz.
For the single_page_alloc_free test, which does
/** Loop to measure **/
for (i = 0; i < rec->loops; i++) {
my_page = alloc_page(gfp_mask);
if (unlikely(my_page == NULL))
return 0;
__free_page(my_page);
}
Unit is cycles.
