mm, kmemleak: little optimization while scanning

osalvadorvilardaga · torvalds · commit 9f1eb38e0e11 · 2018-12-28T12:11:50.000-08:00
kmemleak_scan() goes through all online nodes and tries to scan all used pages. We can do better and use pfn_to_online_page(), so in case we have CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, offlined pages will be skiped automatically. For boxes where CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is not present, pfn_to_online_page() will fallback to pfn_valid(). Another little optimization is to check if the page belongs to the node we are currently checking, so in case we have nodes interleaved we will not check the same pfn multiple times. I ran some tests: Add some memory to node1 and node2 making it interleaved: (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram0,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm0,memdev=ram0,node=1 (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram1,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=ram1,node=2 (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram2,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm2,memdev=ram2,node=1 Then, we offline that memory: # for i in {32..39} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;done # for i in {48..55} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;don # for i in {40..47} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node2/memory$i/state;done And we run kmemleak_scan: # echo "scan" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak before the patch: kmemleak: time spend: 41596 us after the patch: kmemleak: time spend: 34899 us [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove stray newline, per Oscar] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181206131918.25099-1-osalvador@suse.de Signed-off-by: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@gmail.com> Suggested-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
