We have HSF RT(High-speed Service Framework Response-Time) monitors, the RT figures fluctuated randomly, then we deployed a tool detecting "irq off" and "preempt off" to dump the culprit's calltrace, capturing the list_lock cost nearly 100ms with irq off issued by "ss", this also caused network timeouts. This patch introduces two counters to maintain the actual number of partial objects dynamically instead of iterating the partial page lists with list_lock held. New counters of kmem_cache_node: partial_free_objs, partial_total_objs. The main operations are under list_lock in slow path, its performance impact is expected to be minimal except the __slab_free() path. The only concern of introducing partial counter is that partial_free_objs may cause cacheline contention and false sharing issues in case of same SLUB concurrent __slab_free(), so define it to be a percpu counter and places it carefully. As "Vlastimil Babka" and "Christoph Lameter" both suggested that we don't care about the accurate partial objects, and in case that somebody might actually want accurate object statistics at the expense of peak performance, and it would be nice to give them such option in SLUB. Thus a new CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_PARTIAL is introduced to maintain accurate partial objects, which is default off to avoid unexpected performance degradation. When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_PARTIAL is not selected, the sysfs or proc files related to the partial list (/proc/slabinfo, sysfs objects_partial, etc) assume their zero usage data, e.g., Value of "active_objs" and "num_objs" fields of "/proc/slabinfo" equal. "cat /sys/kernel/slab//partial" displays "0".
