Subject[PATCH 4.9 015/107] proc/sysctl: prune stale dentries during unregistering
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru>

commit d6cffbbe9a7e51eb705182965a189457c17ba8a3 upstream.

Currently unregistering sysctl table does not prune its dentries.
Stale dentries could slowdown sysctl operations significantly.

For example, command:

# for i in {1..100000} ; do unshare -n -- sysctl -a &> /dev/null ; done
creates a millions of stale denties around sysctls of loopback interface:

# sysctl fs.dentry-state
fs.dentry-state = 25812579 24724135 45 0 0 0

All of them have matching names thus lookup have to scan though whole
hash chain and call d_compare (proc_sys_compare) which checks them
under system-wide spinlock (sysctl_lock).

# time sysctl -a > /dev/null
real 1m12.806s
user 0m0.016s
sys 1m12.400s

Currently only memory reclaimer could remove this garbage.
But without significant memory pressure this never happens.

This patch collects sysctl inodes into list on sysctl table header and
prunes all their dentries once that table unregisters.
