Subject: mm: vmalloc: set nr_nodes based on CPUs in a system
Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2024 19:46:32 +0100

A number of nodes which are used in the alloc/free paths is set based on
num_possible_cpus() in a system.  Please note a high limit threshold
though is fixed and corresponds to 128 nodes.

For 32-bit or single core systems an access to a global vmap heap is not
balanced.  Such small systems do not suffer from lock contentions due to
low number of CPUs.  In such case the nr_nodes is equal to 1.

Test on AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 32-Core Processor: sudo
./test_vmalloc.sh run_test_mask=7 nr_threads=64

confirms that a native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath goes down to
16.51% percent from 93.07%.

The throughput is ~12x higher:
