For example, for 128-cpu system, the total memory consumption with initial prefill is ~175MB. Things will become worse for systems with even more cpus. Patch 1 avoids unnecessary extra percpu memory allocation. Patch 2 adds objcg to bpf_mem_alloc at init stage so objcg can be associated with root cgroup and objcg can be passed to later bpf_mem_alloc_percpu_unit_init(). Patch 3 addresses memory consumption issue by avoiding to prefill with all unit sizes, i.e. only prefilling with user specified size. Patch 4 further reduces memory consumption by limiting the number of prefill entries for percpu memory allocation. Patch 5 has much smaller low/high watermarks for percpu allocation to reduce memory consumption. Patch 6 rejects percpu memory allocation with bpf_global_percpu_ma when allocation size is greater than 512 bytes. Patch 7 fixed test_bpf_ma test due to Patch 5. Patch 8 added one test to show the verification failure log message. Changelogs: v4 -> v5: . Do not do bpf_global_percpu_ma initialization at init stage, instead doing initialization when the verifier knows it is going to be used by bpf prog. . Using much smaller low/high watermarks for percpu allocation. v3 -> v4: . Add objcg to bpf_mem_alloc during init stage. . Initialize objcg at init stage but use it in bpf_mem_alloc_percpu_unit_init(). . Remove check_obj_size() in bpf_mem_alloc_percpu_unit_init(). v2 -> v3: . Clear the bpf_mem_cache if prefill fails. . Change test_bpf_ma percpu allocation tests to use bucket_size as allocation size instead of bucket_size - 8. . Remove __GFP_ZERO flag from __alloc_percpu_gfp() call. v1 -> v2: . Avoid unnecessary extra percpu memory allocation. . Add a separate function to do bpf_global_percpu_ma initialization . promote. . Promote function static 'sizes' array to file static. . Add comments to explain to refill only one item for percpu alloc.
