[PATCH v2 01/13] io_uring/rsrc: use non-pcpu refcounts for nodes

From: Pavel Begunkov
Date: Tue Apr 04 2023 - 08:41:02 EST


One problem with the current rsrc infra is that often updates will
generates lots of rsrc nodes, each carry pcpu refs. That takes quite a
lot of memory, especially if there is a stall, and takes lots of CPU
cycles. Only pcpu allocations takes >50 of CPU with a naive benchmark
updating files in a loop.

Replace pcpu refs with normal refcounting. There is already a hot path
avoiding atomics / refs, but following patches will further improve it.
