Subject: [PATCH 1/4] memcg: store node_id instead of pglist_data pointer
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 22:31:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520053123.2709959-2-shakeel.butt@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260520053123.2709959-1-shakeel.butt@linux.dev>

The struct obj_stock_pcp stores a pointer to pglist_data for the slab
stats cached on the cpu. On 64-bit machines, this costs 8 bytes. The
pointer is not strictly required: NODE_DATA() can recover it from the
node id. Replace cached_pgdat with int16_t node_id and use NUMA_NO_NODE
as the "no stats cached" sentinel.

At the moment all the archs limit MAX_NUMNODES to 1024 so int16_t is
plenty; a BUILD_BUG_ON() makes sure we notice if that ever changes.
