There are two issues with the current refill_obj_stock() code. First of all, when nr_bytes reaches over PAGE_SIZE, it calls drain_obj_stock() to atomically flush out remaining bytes to obj_cgroup, clear cached_objcg and do a obj_cgroup_put(). It is likely that the same obj_cgroup will be used again which leads to another call to drain_obj_stock() and obj_cgroup_get() as well as atomically retrieve the available byte from obj_cgroup. That is costly. Instead, we should just uncharge the excess pages, reduce the stock bytes and be done with it. The drain_obj_stock() function should only be called when obj_cgroup changes. Secondly, when charging an object of size not less than a page in obj_cgroup_charge(), it is possible that the remaining bytes to be refilled to the stock will overflow a page and cause refill_obj_stock() to uncharge 1 page. To avoid the additional uncharge in this case, a new allow_uncharge flag is added to refill_obj_stock() which will be set to false when called from obj_cgroup_charge() so that an uncharge_pages() call won't be issued right after a charge_pages() call unless the objcg changes. A multithreaded kmalloc+kfree microbenchmark on a 2-socket 48-core 96-thread x86-64 system with 96 testing threads were run. Before this patch, the total number of kilo kmalloc+kfree operations done for a 4k large object by all the testing threads per second were 4,304 kops/s (cgroup v1) and 8,478 kops/s (cgroup v2). After applying this patch, the number were 4,731 (cgroup v1) and 418,142 (cgroup v2) respectively. This represents a performance improvement of 1.10X (cgroup v1) and 49.3X (cgroup v2).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
