H A D | vmscan.c | diff d6ecbcd70fffcffe79d45f3be7b8fcf5d8e04a3d Fri Jun 09 03:15:16 CDT 2023 Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> Revert "mm: vmscan: add shrinker_srcu_generation"
This reverts commit 475733dda5aedba9e086379aafe6b5ffd53e8f5e.
Kernel test robot reports -88.8% regression in stress-ng.ramfs.ops_per_sec test case [1], which is caused by commit f95bdb700bc6 ("mm: vmscan: make global slab shrink lockless"). The root cause is that SRCU has to be careful to not frequently check for SRCU read-side critical section exits. Therefore, even if no one is currently in the SRCU read-side critical section, synchronize_srcu() cannot return quickly. That's why unregister_shrinker() has become slower.
We will try to use the refcount+RCU method [2] proposed by Dave Chinner to continue to re-implement the lockless slab shrink. So revert the shrinker_srcu related changes first.
