Currently, for certain sizes and classes of allocations we use SPL caches that are backed by caches in the Linux Slab allocator to reduce fragmentation and increase utilization of memory. The way things are implemented for these caches as of now though is that we don't keep any statistics of the allocations that we make from these caches. This patch enables the tracking of allocated objects in those SPL caches by making the trade-off of grabbing the cache lock at every object allocation and free to update the respective counter. Additionally, this patch makes those caches visible in the /proc/spl/kmem/slab special file. As a side note, enabling the specific counter for those caches enables SDB to create a more user-friendly interface than /proc/spl/kmem/slab that can also cross-reference data from slabinfo. Here is for example the output of one of those caches in SDB that outputs the name of the underlying Linux cache, the memory of SPL objects allocated in that cache, and the percentage of those objects compared to all the objects in it: ``` > spl_kmem_caches | filter obj.skc_name == "zio_buf_512" | pp name ... source total_memory util ----------- ... ----------------- ------------ ---- zio_buf_512 ... kmalloc-512[SLUB] 16.9MB 8 ``` Reviewed-by: Matt Ahrens <matt@delphix.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Signed-off-by: Serapheim Dimitropoulos <serapheim@delphix.com> Closes #9474 |
