Subject: [PATCH v21 6/6] lib: inline percpu_counter_tree_items_size with boot-safety sentinel
Date: Tue,  1 Sep 2026 14:28:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901182857.26690-7-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901182857.26690-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

Replace the out-of-line percpu_counter_tree_items_size() function with a
static inline that loads the __ro_after_init variable
__percpu_counter_tree_items_size directly. This eliminates a function
call on paths that compute mm_struct flexible array layout offsets.

Initialize the variable to SIZE_MAX as a sentinel value, and add a
WARN_ON_ONCE check in the inline accessor to catch any accidental use
before percpu_counter_tree_subsystem_init() sets the real value based on
nr_cpu_ids. An early misuse would produce an absurd offset that triggers
the warning with a stack trace pointing at the offending caller, rather
than silently computing wrong memory offsets.

percpu_counter_tree_subsystem_init() sets the variable to the runtime
value immediately after deriving counter_config from nr_cpu_ids,
before calculate_accuracy_topology(). After boot, __ro_after_init moves
the variable into read-only memory.

On !CONFIG_SMP, the existing inline returning 0 is unchanged and
requires no sentinel.
