swap: fix swapfile read/write offset

2021-03-07T11:34:15Z

commit caf6912f3f4af7232340d500a4a2008f81b93f14 upstream. We're not factoring in the start of the file for where to write and read the swapfile, which leads to very unfortunate side effects of writing where we should not be...

mm: remove activate_page() from unuse_pte()

2020-10-14T01:38:30Z

We don't initially add anon pages to active lruvec after commit b518154e59aa ("mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU"). Remove activate_page() from unuse_pte(), which seems to be missed by the commit. And make the function static while we are at it. Before the commit, we called lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable() to add new ksm pages to active lruvec. Therefore, activate_page() wasn't necessary for them in the first place.

swap: rename SWP_FS to SWAP_FS_OPS to avoid ambiguity

2020-10-14T01:38:29Z

SWP_FS is used to make swap_{read,write}page() go through the filesystem, and it's only used for swap files over NFS for now. Otherwise it will directly submit IO to blockdev according to swapfile extents reported by filesystems in advance. As Matthew pointed out [1], SWP_FS naming is somewhat confusing, so let's rename to SWP_FS_OPS.

mm: factor find_get_incore_page out of mincore_page

2020-10-14T01:38:29Z

Patch series "Return head pages from find_*_entry", v2. This patch series started out as part of the THP patch set, but it has some nice effects along the way and it seems worth splitting it out and submitting separately. Currently find_get_entry() and find_lock_entry() return the page corresponding to the requested index, but the first thing most callers do is find the head page, which we just threw away. As part of auditing all the callers, I found some misuses of the APIs and some plain inefficiencies that I've fixed. The diffstat is unflattering, but I added more kernel-doc and a new wrapper. This patch (of 8); Provide this functionality from the swap cache. It's useful for more than just mincore().

mm: split swap_type_of

2020-09-23T16:43:19Z

swap_type_of is used for two entirely different purposes: (1) check what swap type a given device/offset corresponds to (2) find the first available swap device that can be written to Mixing both in a single function creates an unreadable mess. Create two separate functions instead, and switch both to pass a dev_t instead of a struct block_device to further simplify the code. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

mm/swap: implement workingset detection for anonymous LRU

2020-08-12T17:57:56Z

This patch implements workingset detection for anonymous LRU. All the infrastructure is implemented by the previous patches so this patch just activates the workingset detection by installing/retrieving the shadow entry and adding refault calculation.

mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU

2020-08-12T17:57:55Z

In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is started on active list. Growing active list results in rebalancing active/inactive list so old pages on active list are demoted to inactive list. Hence, the page on active list isn't protected at all. Following is an example of this situation. Assume that 50 hot pages on active list. Numbers denote the number of pages on active/inactive list (active | inactive). 1. 50 hot pages on active list 50(h) | 0 2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(uo) | 50(h) 3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h) This patch tries to fix this issue. Like as file LRU, newly created or swap-in anonymous pages will be inserted to the inactive list. They are promoted to active list if enough reference happens. This simple modification changes the above example as following. 1. 50 hot pages on active list 50(h) | 0 2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(h) | 50(uo) 3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo) As you can see, hot pages on active list would be protected. Note that, this implementation has a drawback that the page cannot be promoted and will be swapped-out if re-access interval is greater than the size of inactive list but less than the size of total(active+inactive). To solve this potential issue, following patch will apply workingset detection similar to the one that's already applied to file LRU.

mm: remove vm_total_pages

2020-08-07T18:33:28Z

The global variable "vm_total_pages" is a relic from older days. There is only a single user that reads the variable - build_all_zonelists() - and the first thing it does is update it. Use a local variable in build_all_zonelists() instead and remove the global variable.
