[PATCH v2 13/16] sunrpc: keep a cache of svc_rqsts for each NUMA node

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Wed Dec 10 2014 - 14:09:03 EST


Allocating an entire svc_rqst (including all of the pages, etc...) for
each workqueue request is pretty expensive. Keep a cache of allocated
svc_rqst structures for each NUMA node that we keep in svc_pool.

When an xprt needs servicing we look for an existing svc_rqst if
possible, attach the xprt to it and then queue it to do the work. If
one isn't currently available, we queue the svc_xprt work to allocate
one, add it to the cache and then queue the svc_rqst's work to handle
the rest.

In order to keep the cache from growing without bound, we register a
shrinker. Since the cache is already NUMA-aware, we can use a NUMA-aware
shrinker as well.
