    memcg: unify sync and async per-cpu charge cache draining · d38144b7
    Michal Hocko 提交于
    Currently we have two ways how to drain per-CPU caches for charges.
    drain_all_stock_sync will synchronously drain all caches while
    drain_all_stock_async will asynchronously drain only those that refer to
    a given memory cgroup or its subtree in hierarchy.  Targeted async
    draining has been introduced by 26fe6168 (memcg: fix percpu cached
    charge draining frequency) to reduce the cpu workers number.
    
    sync draining is currently triggered only from mem_cgroup_force_empty
    which is triggered only by userspace (mem_cgroup_force_empty_write) or
    when a cgroup is removed (mem_cgroup_pre_destroy).  Although these are
    not usually frequent operations it still makes some sense to do targeted
    draining as well, especially if the box has many CPUs.
    
    This patch unifies both methods to use the single code (drain_all_stock)
    which relies on the original async implementation and just adds
    flush_work to wait on all caches that are still under work for the sync
    mode.  We are using FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE bit check to prevent from
    waiting on a work that we haven't triggered.  Please note that both sync
    and async functions are currently protected by percpu_charge_mutex so we
    cannot race with other drainers.
