mm/swapfile.c: use struct_size() in kvzalloc()
One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};
size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = kvzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kvzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
Notice that, in this case, variable size is not necessary, hence it is
removed.
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

mm, swap: bounds check swap_info array accesses to avoid NULL derefs
Dan Carpenter reports a potential NULL dereference in
get_swap_page_of_type:
Smatch complains that the NULL checks on "si" aren't consistent. This
seems like a real bug because we have not ensured that the type is
valid and so "si" can be NULL.
Add the missing check for NULL, taking care to use a read barrier to
ensure CPU1 observes CPU0's updates in the correct order:
CPU0 CPU1
alloc_swap_info() if (type >= nr_swapfiles)
swap_info[type] = p /* handle invalid entry */
smp_wmb() smp_rmb()
++nr_swapfiles p = swap_info[type]
Without smp_rmb, CPU1 might observe CPU0's write to nr_swapfiles before
CPU0's write to swap_info[type] and read NULL from swap_info[type].
Ying Huang noticed other places in swapfile.c don't order these reads
properly. Introduce swap_type_to_swap_info to encourage correct usage.
Use READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE to follow the Linux Kernel Memory Model
(see tools/memory-model/Documentation/explanation.txt).
This ordering need not be enforced in places where swap_lock is held
(e.g. si_swapinfo) because swap_lock serializes updates to nr_swapfiles
and the swap_info array.

mm: rid swapoff of quadratic complexity
This patch was initially posted by Kelley Nielsen. Reposting the patch with all review comments addressed and with minor modifications and optimizations. Also, folding in the fixes offered by Hugh Dickins and Huang Ying. Tests were rerun and commit message updated with new results. try_to_unuse() is of quadratic complexity, with a lot of wasted effort. It unuses swap entries one by one, potentially iterating over all the page tables for all the processes in the system for each one. This new proposed implementation of try_to_unuse simplifies its complexity to linear. It iterates over the system's mms once, unusing all the affected entries as it walks each set of page tables. It also makes similar changes to shmem_unuse. Improvement swapoff was called on a swap partition containing about 6G of data, in a VM(8cpu, 16G RAM), and calls to unuse_pte_range() were counted. Present implementation....about 1200M calls(8min, avg 80% cpu util). Prototype.................about 9.0K calls(3min, avg 5% cpu util). Details In shmem_unuse(), iterate over the shmem_swaplist and, for each shmem_inode_info that contains a swap entry, pass it to shmem_unuse_inode(), along with the swap type. In shmem_unuse_inode(), iterate over its associated xarray, and store the index and value of each swap entry in an array for passing to shmem_swapin_page() outside of the RCU critical section. In try_to_unuse(), instead of iterating over the entries in the type and unusing them one by one, perhaps walking all the page tables for all the processes for each one, iterate over the mmlist, making one pass. Pass each mm to unuse_mm() to begin its page table walk, and during the walk, unuse all the ptes that have backing store in the swap type received by try_to_unuse(). After the walk, check the type for orphaned swap entries with find_next_to_unuse(), and remove them from the swap cache. If find_next_to_unuse() starts over at the beginning of the type, repeat the check of the shmem_swaplist and the walk a maximum of three times. Change unuse_mm() and the intervening walk functions down to unuse_pte_range() to take the type as a parameter, and to iterate over their entire range, calling the next function down on every iteration. In unuse_pte_range(), make a swap entry from each pte in the range using the passed in type. If it has backing store in the type, call swapin_readahead() to retrieve the page and pass it to unuse_pte(). Pass the count of pages_to_unuse down the page table walks in try_to_unuse(), and return from the walk when the desired number of pages has been swapped back in.

mm, swap: fix swapoff with KSM pages
KSM pages may be mapped to the multiple VMAs that cannot be reached from one anon_vma. So during swapin, a new copy of the page need to be generated if a different anon_vma is needed, please refer to comments of ksm_might_need_to_copy() for details. During swapoff, unuse_vma() uses anon_vma (if available) to locate VMA and virtual address mapped to the page, so not all mappings to a swapped out KSM page could be found. So in try_to_unuse(), even if the swap count of a swap entry isn't zero, the page needs to be deleted from swap cache, so that, in the next round a new page could be allocated and swapin for the other mappings of the swapped out KSM page. But this contradicts with the THP swap support. Where the THP could be deleted from swap cache only after the swap count of every swap entry in the huge swap cluster backing the THP has reach 0. So try_to_unuse() is changed in commit |

mm: split SWP_FILE into SWP_ACTIVATED and SWP_FS
The SWP_FILE flag serves two purposes: to make swap_{read,write}page() go
through the filesystem, and to make swapoff() call ->swap_deactivate().
For Btrfs, we want the latter but not the former, so split this flag into
two. This makes us always call ->swap_deactivate() if ->swap_activate()
succeeded, not just if it didn't add any swap extents itself.
This also resolves the issue of the very misleading name of SWP_FILE,
which is only used for swap files over NFS.

mm/swapfile.c: clear si->swap_map[] in swap_free_cluster()
si->swap_map[] of the swap entries in cluster needs to be cleared during freeing. Previously, this is done in the caller of swap_free_cluster(). This may cause code duplication (one user now, will add more users later) and lock/unlock cluster unnecessarily. In this patch, the clearing code is moved to swap_free_cluster() to avoid the downside.

mm/swapfile.c: call free_swap_slot() in __swap_entry_free()
This is a code cleanup patch without functionality change. Originally, when __swap_entry_free() is called, and its return value is 0, free_swap_slot() will always be called to free the swap entry to the per-CPU pool. So move the call to free_swap_slot() to __swap_entry_free() to simplify the code.

mm/swapfile.c: use __try_to_reclaim_swap() in free_swap_and_cache()
The code path to reclaim the swap entry in free_swap_and_cache() is almost same as that of __try_to_reclaim_swap(). The largest difference is just coding style. So the support to the additional requirement of free_swap_and_cache() is added into __try_to_reclaim_swap(). free_swap_and_cache() is changed to call __try_to_reclaim_swap(), and delete the duplicated code. This will improve code readability and reduce the potential bugs. There are 2 functionality differences between __try_to_reclaim_swap() and swap entry reclaim code of free_swap_and_cache(). - free_swap_and_cache() only reclaims the swap entry if the page is unmapped or swap is getting full. The support has been added into __try_to_reclaim_swap(). - try_to_free_swap() (called by __try_to_reclaim_swap()) checks pm_suspended_storage(), while free_swap_and_cache() not. I think this is OK. Because the page and the swap entry can be reclaimed later eventually.

In this patch, locking related code is shared between huge/normal code path in put_swap_page() to reduce code duplication. The `free_entries == 0` case is merged into the more general `free_entries != SWAPFILE_CLUSTER` case, because the new locking method makes it easy. The added lines is same as the removed lines.

mm, swap, get_swap_pages: use entry_size instead of cluster in parameter
As suggested by Matthew Wilcox, it is better to use "int entry_size"
instead of "bool cluster" as parameter to specify whether to operate for
huge or normal swap entries. Because this improve the flexibility to
support other swap entry size. And Dave Hansen thinks that this
improves code readability too.
So in this patch, the "bool cluster" parameter of get_swap_pages() is
replaced by "int entry_size".
And nr_swap_entries() trick is used to reduce the binary size when

In swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(), to identify whether there's any page table mapping for a 4k sized swap entry, "si->swap_map[i] != SWAP_HAS_CACHE" is used. This works correctly now, because all users of the function will only call it after checking SWAP_HAS_CACHE. But as pointed out by Daniel, it is better to use "swap_count(map[i])" here, because it works for "map[i] == 0" case too.

mm/swapfile.c: replace some #ifdef with IS_ENABLED()
In mm/swapfile.c, THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap specific code is enclosed by #ifdef CONFIG_THP_SWAP/#endif to avoid code dilating when THP isn't enabled. But #ifdef/#endif in .c file hurt the code readability, so Dave suggested to use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_THP_SWAP) instead and let compiler to do the dirty job for us. This has potential to remove some duplicated code too. From output of `size`, text data bss dec hex filename THP=y: 26269 2076 340 28685 700d mm/swapfile.o ifdef/endif: 24115 2028 340 26483 6773 mm/swapfile.o IS_ENABLED: 24179 2028 340 26547 67b3 mm/swapfile.o IS_ENABLED() based solution works quite well, almost as good as that of #ifdef/#endif. And from the diffstat, the removed lines are more than added lines. One #ifdef for split_swap_cluster() is kept. Because it is a public function with a stub implementation for CONFIG_THP_SWAP=n in swap.h.

mm: swap: add comments to lock_cluster_or_swap_info()
Patch series "swap: THP optimizing refactoring", v4.
Now the THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap optimizing is implemented in the
way like below,
#ifdef CONFIG_THP_SWAP
huge_function(...)
{
}
#else
normal_function(...)
{
}
#endif
general_function(...)
{
if (huge)
return thp_function(...);
else
return normal_function(...);
}
As pointed out by Dave Hansen, this will,
1. Create a new, wholly untested code path for huge page
2. Create two places to patch bugs
3. Are not reusing code when possible
This patchset is to address these problems via merging huge/normal code
path/functions if possible.
One concern is that this may cause code size to dilate when
!CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. The data shows that most refactoring will
only cause quite slight code size increase.

memcontrol: schedule throttling if we are congested
Memory allocations can induce swapping via kswapd or direct reclaim. If we are having IO done for us by kswapd and don't actually go into direct reclaim we may never get scheduled for throttling. So instead check to see if our cgroup is congested, and if so schedule the throttling. Before we return to user space the throttling stuff will only throttle if we actually required it.

x86/speculation/l1tf: Limit swap file size to MAX_PA/2
For the L1TF workaround its necessary to limit the swap file size to below MAX_PA/2, so that the higher bits of the swap offset inverted never point to valid memory. Add a mechanism for the architecture to override the swap file size check in swapfile.c and add a x86 specific max swapfile check function that enforces that limit. The check is only enabled if the CPU is vulnerable to L1TF. In VMs with 42bit MAX_PA the typical limit is 2TB now, on a native system with 46bit PA it is 32TB. The limit is only per individual swap file, so it's always possible to exceed these limits with multiple swap files or partitions.

treewide: kvzalloc() -> kvcalloc()
The kvzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kvcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:
kvzalloc(a * b, gfp)
with:
kvcalloc(a * b, gfp)
as well as handling cases of:
kvzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)
with:
kvzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)
as it's slightly less ugly than:
kvcalloc(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)
This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
kvzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)
though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.
The Coccinelle script used for this was:

mm: fix nr_rotate_swap leak in swapon() error case
If swapon() fails after incrementing nr_rotate_swap, we don't decrement
it and thus effectively leak it. Make sure we decrement it if we

swap: divide-by-zero when zero length swap file on ssd
Calling swapon() on a zero length swap file on SSD can lead to a divide-by-zero. Although creating such files isn't possible with mkswap and they woud be considered invalid, it would be better for the swapon code to be more robust and handle this condition gracefully (return -EINVAL). Especially since the fix is small and straightforward. To help with wear leveling on SSD, the swapon syscall calculates a random position in the swap file using modulo p->highest_bit, which is set to maxpages - 1 in read_swap_header. If the swap file is zero length, read_swap_header sets maxpages=1 and last_page=0, resulting in p->highest_bit=0 and we divide-by-zero when we modulo p->highest_bit in swapon syscall. This can be prevented by having read_swap_header return zero if last_page is zero.

vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:
for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

mm: swap: SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO: skip swapcache only if swapped page has no other reference
When SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO swapped-in pages are shared by several processes, it can cause unnecessary memory wastage by skipping swap cache. Because, with swapin fault by read, they could share a page if the page were in swap cache. Thus, it avoids allocating same content new pages. This patch makes the swapcache skipping work only if the swap pte is non-sharable.

mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device
With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively and swap-in is crucial to application latency. The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such fast storage. When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4 decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%. Maybe, it would be bigger in nvdimm. This patch aims to reduce swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device. It enhances 45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead, from 2.41sec to 1.64sec).

mm, swap: fix race between swap count continuation operations
One page may store a set of entries of the sis->swap_map
(swap_info_struct->swap_map) in multiple swap clusters.
If some of the entries has sis->swap_map[offset] > SWAP_MAP_MAX,
multiple pages will be used to store the set of entries of the
sis->swap_map. And the pages are linked with page->lru. This is called
swap count continuation. To access the pages which store the set of
entries of the sis->swap_map simultaneously, previously, sis->lock is
used. But to improve the scalability of __swap_duplicate(), swap
cluster lock may be used in swap_count_continued() now. This may race
with add_swap_count_continuation() which operates on a nearby swap
cluster, in which the sis->swap_map entries are stored in the same page.
The race can cause wrong swap count in practice, thus cause unfreeable
swap entries or software lockup, etc.
To fix the race, a new spin lock called cont_lock is added to struct
swap_info_struct to protect the swap count continuation page list. This
is a lock at the swap device level, so the scalability isn't very well.
But it is still much better than the original sis->lock, because it is
only acquired/released when swap count continuation is used. Which is
considered rare in practice. If it turns out that the scalability
becomes an issue for some workloads, we can split the lock into some
more fine grained locks.

mm: kvfree the swap cluster info if the swap file is unsatisfactory
If initializing a small swap file fails because the swap file has a
problem (holes, etc.) then we need to free the cluster info as part of
cleanup. Unfortunately a previous patch changed the code to use kvzalloc
but did not change all the vfree calls to use kvfree.
Found by running generic/357 from xfstests.

swap: choose swap device according to numa node
If the system has more than one swap device and swap device has the node information, we can make use of this information to decide which swap device to use in get_swap_pages() to get better performance. The current code uses a priority based list, swap_avail_list, to decide which swap device to use and if multiple swap devices share the same priority, they are used round robin. This patch changes the previous single global swap_avail_list into a per-numa-node list, i.e. for each numa node, it sees its own priority based list of available swap devices. Swap device's priority can be promoted on its matching node's swap_avail_list. The current swap device's priority is set as: user can set a >=0 value, or the system will pick one starting from -1 then downwards. The priority value in the swap_avail_list is the negated value of the swap device's due to plist being sorted from low to high. The new policy doesn't change the semantics for priority >=0 cases, the previous starting from -1 then downwards now becomes starting from -2 then downwards and -1 is reserved as the promoted value. Take 4-node EX machine as an example, suppose 4 swap devices are available, each sit on a different node: swapA on node 0 swapB on node 1 swapC on node 2 swapD on node 3 After they are all swapped on in the sequence of ABCD. Current behaviour: their priorities will be: swapA: -1 swapB: -2 swapC: -3 swapD: -4 And their position in the global swap_avail_list will be: swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 New behaviour: their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped): swapA: -2 swapB: -3 swapC: -4 swapD: -5 And their positions in the 4 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be: swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */ swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */ swapB -> swapA -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */ swapC -> swapA -> swapB -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */ swapD -> swapA -> swapB -> swapC prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 To see the effect of the patch, a test that starts N process, each mmap a region of anonymous memory and then continually write to it at random position to trigger both swap in and out is used. On a 2 node Skylake EP machine with 64GiB memory, two 170GB SSD drives are used as swap devices with each attached to a different node, the result is: runtime=30m/processes=32/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=4G kernel throughput vanilla 13306 auto-binding 15169 +14% runtime=30m/processes=64/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=2G kernel throughput vanilla 11885 auto-binding 14879 +25% [aaron.lu@intel.com: v2] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use kmalloc_array()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Signed-off-by: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Cc: "Chen, Tim C" <tim.c.chen@intel.com> Cc: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm, swap: don't use VMA based swap readahead if HDD is used as swap
VMA based swap readahead will readahead the virtual pages that is continuous in the virtual address space. While the original swap readahead will readahead the swap slots that is continuous in the swap device. Although VMA based swap readahead is more correct for the swap slots to be readahead, it will trigger more small random readings, which may cause the performance of HDD (hard disk) to degrade heavily, and may finally exceed the benefit. To avoid the issue, in this patch, if the HDD is used as swap, the VMA based swap readahead will be disabled, and the original swap readahead will be used instead.

mm, THP, swap: support splitting THP for THP swap out
After adding swapping out support for THP (Transparent Huge Page), it is possible that a THP in swap cache (partly swapped out) need to be split. To split such a THP, the swap cluster backing the THP need to be split too, that is, the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag need to be cleared for the swap cluster. The patch implemented this. And because the THP swap writing needs the THP keeps as huge page during writing. The PageWriteback flag is checked before splitting.

mm, THP, swap: make reuse_swap_page() works for THP swapped out
After supporting to delay THP (Transparent Huge Page) splitting after swapped out, it is possible that some page table mappings of the THP are turned into swap entries. So reuse_swap_page() need to check the swap count in addition to the map count as before. This patch done that. In the huge PMD write protect fault handler, in addition to the page map count, the swap count need to be checked too, so the page lock need to be acquired too when calling reuse_swap_page() in addition to the page table lock.

mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap space for THP swapped out
The normal swap slot reclaiming can be done when the swap count reaches SWAP_HAS_CACHE. But for the swap slot which is backing a THP, all swap slots backing one THP must be reclaimed together, because the swap slot may be used again when the THP is swapped out again later. So the swap slots backing one THP can be reclaimed together when the swap count for all swap slots for the THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE. In the patch, the functions to check whether the swap count for all swap slots backing one THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE are implemented and used when checking whether a swap slot can be reclaimed. To make it easier to determine whether a swap slot is backing a THP, a new swap cluster flag named CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE is added to mark a swap cluster which is backing a THP (Transparent Huge Page). Because THP swap in as a whole isn't supported now. After deleting the THP from the swap cache (for example, swapping out finished), the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag will be cleared. So that, the normal pages inside THP can be swapped in individually.

mm, THP, swap: support to clear swap cache flag for THP swapped out
Patch series "mm, THP, swap: Delay splitting THP after swapped out", v3. This is the second step of THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap optimization. In the first step, the splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. In the second step, the splitting is delayed further to after the swapping out finished. The plan is to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP for the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole. In the patchset, more operations for the anonymous THP reclaiming, such as TLB flushing, writing the THP to the swap device, removing the THP from the swap cache are batched. So that the performance of anonymous THP swapping out are improved. During the development, the following scenarios/code paths have been checked, - swap out/in - swap off - write protect page fault - madvise_free - process exit - split huge page With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 42% (from about 5.81GB/s to about 8.25GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 16 processes. At the same time, the IPI (reflect TLB flushing) reduced about 78.9%. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up. Below is the part of the cover letter for the first step patchset of THP swap optimization which applies to all steps. ========================= Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize THP swap performance. The advantages of the THP swap support include: - Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce TLB flushing and lock acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space, adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap. - The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too. - It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be free up after THP swapping out. - It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management too. There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via "always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc. This patch (of 12): Previously, swapcache_free_cluster() is used only in the error path of shrink_page_list() to free the swap cluster just allocated if the THP (Transparent Huge Page) is failed to be split. In this patch, it is enhanced to clear the swap cache flag (SWAP_HAS_CACHE) for the swap cluster that holds the contents of THP swapped out. This will be used in delaying splitting THP after swapping out support. Because there is no THP swapping in as a whole support yet, after clearing the swap cache flag, the swap cluster backing the THP swapped out will be split. So that the swap slots in the swap cluster can be swapped in as normal pages later.

swap: add block io poll in swapin path
For fast flash disk, async IO could introduce overhead because of context switch. block-mq now supports IO poll, which improves performance and latency a lot. swapin is a good place to use this technique, because the task is waiting for the swapin page to continue execution. In my virtual machine, directly read 4k data from a NVMe with iopoll is about 60% better than that without poll. With iopoll support in swapin patch, my microbenchmark (a task does random memory write) is about 10%~25% faster. CPU utilization increases a lot though, 2x and even 3x CPU utilization. This will depend on disk speed. While iopoll in swapin isn't intended for all usage cases, it's a win for latency sensistive workloads with high speed swap disk. block layer has knob to control poll in runtime. If poll isn't enabled in block layer, there should be no noticeable change in swapin. I got a chance to run the same test in a NVMe with DRAM as the media. In simple fio IO test, blkpoll boosts 50% performance in single thread test and ~20% in 8 threads test. So this is the base line. In above swap test, blkpoll boosts ~27% performance in single thread test. blkpoll uses 2x CPU time though. If we enable hybid polling, the performance gain has very slight drop but CPU time is only 50% worse than that without blkpoll. Also we can adjust parameter of hybid poll, with it, the CPU time penality is reduced further. In 8 threads test, blkpoll doesn't help though. The performance is similar to that without blkpoll, but cpu utilization is similar too. There is lock contention in swap path. The cpu time spending on blkpoll isn't high. So overall, blkpoll swapin isn't worse than that without it. The swapin readahead might read several pages in in the same time and form a big IO request. Since the IO will take longer time, it doesn't make sense to do poll, so the patch only does iopoll for single page swapin.

mm/swapfile.c: sort swap entries before free
To reduce the lock contention of swap_info_struct->lock when freeing swap entry. The freed swap entries will be collected in a per-CPU buffer firstly, and be really freed later in batch. During the batch freeing, if the consecutive swap entries in the per-CPU buffer belongs to same swap device, the swap_info_struct->lock needs to be acquired/released only once, so that the lock contention could be reduced greatly. But if there are multiple swap devices, it is possible that the lock may be unnecessarily released/acquired because the swap entries belong to the same swap device are non-consecutive in the per-CPU buffer. To solve the issue, the per-CPU buffer is sorted according to the swap device before freeing the swap entries. With the patch, the memory (some swapped out) free time reduced 11.6% (from 2.65s to 2.35s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-rand test case with 16 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test swapping, the test case creates 16 processes, which allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up, finally the memory (some swapped out) is freed before exit.

The high THP utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management too. There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via "always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc. This patchset is the first step for the THP swap support. The plan is to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP during the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole. As the first step, in this patchset, the splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will reduce lock acquiring/releasing for the locks used for the swap cache management. With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 15.5% (from about 3.73GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up. This patch (of 5): In this patch, splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP (Transparent Huge Page) and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will batch the corresponding operation, thus improve THP swap out throughput. This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP finally. In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP swapped out. So, the size of the swap cluster is changed to that of the THP (Transparent Huge Page) on x86_64 architecture (512). For other architectures which want such THP swap optimization, ARCH_USES_THP_SWAP_CLUSTER needs to be selected in the Kconfig file for the architecture. In effect, this will enlarge swap cluster size by 2 times on x86_64. Which may make it harder to find a free cluster when the swap space becomes fragmented. So that, this may reduce the continuous swap space allocation and sequential write in theory. The performance test in 0day shows no regressions caused by this. In the future of THP swap optimization, some information of the swapped out THP (such as compound map count) will be recorded in the swap_cluster_info data structure. The mem cgroup swap accounting functions are enhanced to support charge or uncharge a swap cluster backing a THP as a whole. The swap cluster allocate/free functions are added to allocate/free a swap cluster for a THP. A fair simple algorithm is used for swap cluster allocation, that is, only the first swap device in priority list will be tried to allocate the swap cluster. The function will fail if the trying is not successful, and the caller will fallback to allocate a single swap slot instead. This works good enough for normal cases. If the difference of the number of the free swap clusters among multiple swap devices is significant, it is possible that some THPs are split earlier than necessary. For example, this could be caused by big size difference among multiple swap devices. The swap cache functions is enhanced to support add/delete THP to/from the swap cache as a set of (HPAGE_PMD_NR) sub-pages. This may be enhanced in the future with multi-order radix tree. But because we will split the THP soon during swapping out, that optimization doesn't make much sense for this first step. The THP splitting functions are enhanced to support to split THP in swap cache during swapping out. The page lock will be held during allocating the swap cluster, adding the THP into the swap cache and splitting the THP. So in the code path other than swapping out, if the THP need to be split, the PageSwapCache(THP) will be always false. The swap cluster is only available for SSD, so the THP swap optimization in this patchset has no effect for HDD.

mm, swap: use kvzalloc to allocate some swap data structures
Now vzalloc() is used in swap code to allocate various data structures, such as swap cache, swap slots cache, cluster info, etc. Because the size may be too large on some system, so that normal kzalloc() may fail. But using kzalloc() has some advantages, for example, less memory fragmentation, less TLB pressure, etc. So change the data structure allocation in swap code to use kvzalloc() which will try kzalloc() firstly, and fallback to vzalloc() if kzalloc() failed. In general, although kmalloc() will reduce the number of high-order pages in short term, vmalloc() will cause more pain for memory fragmentation in the long term. And the swap data structure allocation that is changed in this patch is expected to be long term allocation. From Dave Hansen: "for example, we have a two-page data structure. vmalloc() takes two effectively random order-0 pages, probably from two different 2M pages and pins them. That "kills" two 2M pages. kmalloc(), allocating two *contiguous* pages, will not cross a 2M boundary. That means it will only "kill" the possibility of a single 2M page. More 2M pages == less fragmentation. The allocation in this patch occurs during swap on time, which is usually done during system boot, so usually we have high opportunity to allocate the contiguous pages successfully. The allocation for swap_map[] in struct swap_info_struct is not changed, because that is usually quite large and vmalloc_to_page() is used for it. That makes it a little harder to change.

mm/swapfile.c: fix swap space leak in error path of swap_free_entries()
In swapcache_free_entries(), if swap_info_get_cont() returns NULL, something wrong occurs for the swap entry. But we should still continue to free the following swap entries in the array instead of skip them to avoid swap space leak. This is just problem in error path, where system may be in an inconsistent state, but it is still good to fix it.

mm, swap: avoid lock swap_avail_lock when held cluster lock
Cluster lock is used to protect the swap_cluster_info and corresponding elements in swap_info_struct->swap_map[]. But it is found that now in scan_swap_map_slots(), swap_avail_lock may be acquired when cluster lock is held. This does no good except making the locking more complex and improving the potential locking contention, because the swap_info_struct->lock is used to protect the data structure operated in the code already. Fix this via moving the corresponding operations in scan_swap_map_slots() out of cluster lock.
