memcg: increase the valid index range for memcg stats
Patch series "Kernel stack usage histogram", v6. Provide histogram of stack sizes for the exited threads: Example outputs: Intel: $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat kstack_1k 3 kstack_2k 188 kstack_4k 11391 kstack_8k 243 kstack_16k 0 ARM with 64K page_size: $ grep kstack /proc/vmstat kstack_1k 1 kstack_2k 340 kstack_4k 25212 kstack_8k 1659 kstack_16k 0 kstack_32k 0 kstack_64k 0 This patch (of 3): At the moment the valid index for the indirection tables for memcg stats and events is < S8_MAX. These indirection tables are used in performance critical codepaths. With the latest addition to the vm_events, the NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS has gone over S8_MAX. One way to resolve is to increase the entry size of the indirection table from int8_t to int16_t but this will increase the potential number of cachelines needed to access the indirection table. This patch took a different approach and make the valid index < U8_MAX. In this way the size of the indirection tables will remain same and we only need to invalid index check from less than 0 to equal to U8_MAX. In this approach we have also removed a subtraction from the performance critical codepaths.
