From bc29d5bd2ba977716e57572030290d6547ff3f6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlastimil Babka Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 11:09:11 +0200 Subject: mm/slub: perform free consistency checks before call_rcu For SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches we use call_rcu to perform empty slab freeing. The rcu callback rcu_free_slab() calls __free_slab() that currently includes checking the slab consistency for caches with SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS flags. This check needs the slab->objects field to be intact. Because in the next patch we want to allow rcu_head in struct slab to become larger in debug configurations and thus potentially overwrite more fields through a union than slab_list, we want to limit the fields used in rcu_free_slab(). Thus move the consistency checks to free_slab() before call_rcu(). This can be done safely even for SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches where accesses to the objects can still occur after freeing them. As a result, only the slab->slab_cache field has to be physically separate from rcu_head for the freeing callback to work. We also save some cycles in the rcu callback for caches with consistency checks enabled.
