[PATCH v2 1/3] memcg: move memcg_{alloc,free}_cache_params to slab_common.c

From: Vladimir Davydov <hidden>
Date: 2014-09-22 16:00:59
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: control group - memory resource controller (memcg), memory management, slab allocator, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Weiner, Michal Hocko, Roman Gushchin, Shakeel Butt, Andrew Morton, Vlastimil Babka, Harry Yoo, Linus Torvalds 

The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css
reference to the owner memory cgroup in them. However, we can do that in
memcg_{un,}register_cache. OTOH, there are several reasons to move them
to slab_common.c.

First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in
memcontrol.h the better. Since the functions I move don't depend on
memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially
taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too.

Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward:
it proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c
(memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again
(memcg_update_array_size). In the following patches I move the function
relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and
therefore get rid this circular call path. I think we should have the
cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation,
because it's easier to follow the code then. So I move arrays alloc/free
functions to slab_common.c too.

The third point isn't obvious. I'm going to make the list_lru structure
per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim. That means we will have
per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too. It turns out that it's much easier to
update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because
all the stuff we need is defined there. This patch makes memcg caches
arrays allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru.

So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.
