Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] net: skb: isolate skb data area allocations into a separate bucket
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 00:58:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260921075811.too.775-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi!
I wanted to get this rolling again, and got the buckets able to handle
memcg (GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT) with isolation (since it's common due to
AF_UNIX), and GFP_DMA with fall back (since it's rare). It gave me an
excuse to build out bucket kunit tests too, and that (and LLM review)
found a couple other issues that needed fixing too.
The bulk of this is mm/slab, but the final patch is netdev, but Jakub
had acked it before. I've dropped that Ack since time has passed, but
I'm hoping it will get a re-Ack and this whole series can go via slab.
Thanks!

v4:
- fix a bunch of little things wrong with kmem_buckets
- provide cache-type fallback when using buckets
- handle memcg when using buckets
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260702170728.168755-1-pfalcato@suse.de/
Kees Cook (6):
mm/slab: Mark the kmem_buckets_create() context as a Context: section
mm/slab: Give bucket caches the alignment of the caches they mirror
mm/slab: Add kmem_buckets_destroy()
mm/slab: Add tests for the existing kmem_buckets behaviour
mm/slab: Provide kmalloc type fallback for bucket allocations
mm/slab: Let a bucket set handle __GFP_ACCOUNT
