Initializing a new slab can introduce rather large latencies because
most of the initialization runs always with interrupts disabled.

There is no point in doing so. The newly allocated slab is not visible
yet, so there is no reason to protect it against concurrent alloc/free.

Move the expensive parts of the initialization into allocate_slab(),
so for all allocations with GFP_WAIT set, interrupts are enabled.

Since the above now looks like this:

	page = alloc_slab_page(s, alloc_gfp, node, oo);
	if (unlikely(!page)) {
		oo = s->min;
		alloc_gfp = flags;
		/*
		 * Allocation may have failed due to fragmentation.
		 * Try a lower order alloc if possible
		 */
		page = alloc_slab_page(s, alloc_gfp, node, oo);

		if (page)
			stat(s, ORDER_FALLBACK);
	}

	if (!page)
		goto out;

Why not have it do this:

	page = alloc_slab_page(s, alloc_gfp, node, oo);
	if (unlikely(!page)) {
		oo = s->min;
		alloc_gfp = flags;
		/*
		 * Allocation may have failed due to fragmentation.
		 * Try a lower order alloc if possible
		 */
		page = alloc_slab_page(s, alloc_gfp, node, oo);
		if (unlikely(!page))
			goto out;

		stat(s, ORDER_FALLBACK);
	}

And get rid of the double check for !page in the fast path.

This is the 2nd of 3 checks by the way. Both our approaches together get
it down to 1.

[patch V2] mm/slub: Move slab initialization into irq enabled region

[Thomas Gleixner]

Initializing a new slab can introduce rather large latencies because
most of the initialization runs always with interrupts disabled.

There is no point in doing so. The newly allocated slab is not visible
yet, so there is no reason to protect it against concurrent alloc/free.

Move the expensive parts of the initialization into allocate_slab(),
so for all allocations with GFP_WAIT set, interrupts are enabled.

Initializing a new slab can introduce rather large latencies because
most of the initialization runs always with interrupts disabled.

There is no point in doing so. The newly allocated slab is not visible
yet, so there is no reason to protect it against concurrent alloc/free.

Move the expensive parts of the initialization into allocate_slab(),
so for all allocations with GFP_WAIT set, interrupts are enabled.
