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.[1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200820113448.GM17456@casper.infradead.org

Arm's Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) adds some metadata (tags) to
every physical page, when swapping pages out to disk it is necessary to
save these tags, and later restore them when reading the pages back.Add some hooks along with dummy implementations to enable the
arch code to handle this.Three new hooks are added to the swap code:
* arch_prepare_to_swap() and
* arch_swap_invalidate_page() / arch_swap_invalidate_area().

swap_readpage() does the sync io for one page, the io is not big,
normally, the io can be finished quickly, but it may take long time or
wait forever in case of io failure or discard.This patch uses blk_io_schedule() instead of io_schedule() to avoid task
hung and crash (when set /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_panic) when the above
exception occurs.This is similar to the hung task avoidance in submit_bio_wait(),
blk_execute_rq() and __blkdev_direct_IO().Signed-off-by: Xianting Tian

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include
in the files that include .The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include ") ; do
sed -i -e '/include / d' $f

By now, bmap() will either return the physical block number related to
the requested file offset or 0 in case of error or the requested offset
maps into a hole.
This patch makes the needed changes to enable bmap() to proper return
errors, using the return value as an error return, and now, a pointer
must be passed to bmap() to be filled with the mapped physical block.It will change the behavior of bmap() on return:
- negative value in case of error
- zero on success or map fell into a holeIn case of a hole, the *block will be zero too
Since this is a prep patch, by now, the only error return is -EINVAL if
->bmap doesn't exist.Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig

The following race is observed due to which a processes faulting on a
swap entry, finds the page neither in swapcache nor swap. This causes
zram to give a zero filled page that gets mapped to the process,
resulting in a user space crash later.Consider parent and child processes Pa and Pb sharing the same swap slot
with swap_count 2. Swap is on zram with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO set.

swap_extent is used to map swap page offset to backing device's block
offset. For a continuous block range, one swap_extent is used and all
these swap_extents are managed in a linked list.These swap_extents are used by map_swap_entry() during swap's read and
write path. To find out the backing device's block offset for a page
offset, the swap_extent list will be traversed linearly, with
curr_swap_extent being used as a cache to speed up the search.This works well as long as swap_extents are not huge or when the number
of processes that access swap device are few, but when the swap device
has many extents and there are a number of processes accessing the swap
device concurrently, it can be a problem. On one of our servers, the
disk's remaining size is tight:$df -h

/dev/nvme0n1p1 1.8T 1.3T 504G 72% /home/t4When creating a 80G swapfile there, there are as many as 84656 swap
extents. The end result is, kernel spends abou 30% time in
map_swap_entry() and swap throughput is only 70MB/s.As a comparison, when I used smaller sized swapfile, like 4G whose
swap_extent dropped to 2000, swap throughput is back to 400-500MB/s and
map_swap_entry() is about 3%.One downside of using rbtree for swap_extent is, 'struct rbtree' takes
24 bytes while 'struct list_head' takes 16 bytes, that's 8 bytes more
for each swap_extent. For a swapfile that has 80k swap_extents, that
means 625KiB more memory consumed.Test:
Since it's not possible to reboot that server, I can not test this patch
diretly there. Instead, I tested it on another server with NVMe disk.I created a 20G swapfile on an NVMe backed XFS fs. By default, the
filesystem is quite clean and the created swapfile has only 2 extents.
Testing vanilla and this patch shows no obvious performance difference
when swapfile is not fragmented.To see the patch's effects, I used some tweaks to manually fragment the
swapfile by breaking the extent at 1M boundary. This made the swapfile
have 20K extents.nr_task=4

0-Day test system reported some OOM regressions for several THP
(Transparent Huge Page) swap test cases. These regressions are bisected
to 6861428921b5 ("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"). In the
commit, BIO_MAX_PAGES is set to 256 even when THP swap is enabled. So the
bio_alloc(gfp_flags, 512) in get_swap_bio() may fail when swapping out
THP. That causes the OOM.As in the patch description of 6861428921b5 ("block: always define
BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"), THP swap should use multi-page bvec to write THP
to swap space. So the issue is fixed via doing that in get_swap_bio().BTW: I remember I have checked the THP swap code when 6861428921b5
("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256") was merged, and thought the
THP swap code needn't to be changed. But apparently, I was wrong. I
should have done this at that time.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190624075515.31040-1-ying.huang@intel.com

swap_readpage() wants to do polling to bring in pages if asked to, but
it doesn't mark the bio as being polled. Additionally, the looping
around the blk_poll() check isn't correct - if we get a zero return, we
should call io_schedule(), we can't just assume that the bio has
completed. The regular bio->bi_private check should be used for that.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/e15243a8-2cdf-c32c-ecee-f289377c8ef9@kernel.dk

This mostly reverts commit 849a370016a5 ("block: avoid ordered task
state change for polled IO"). It was wrongly claiming that the ordering
wasn't necessary. The memory barrier _is_ necessary.If something is truly polling and not going to sleep, it's the whole
state setting that is unnecessary, not the memory barrier. Whenever you
set your state to a sleeping state, you absolutely need the memory
barrier.Note that sometimes the memory barrier can be elsewhere. For example,
the ordering might be provided by an external lock, or by setting the
process state to sleeping before adding yourself to the wait queue list
that is used for waking up (where the wait queue lock itself will
guarantee that any wakeup will correctly see the sleeping state).But none of those cases were true here.
NOTE! Some of the polling paths may indeed be able to drop the state
setting entirely, at which point the memory barrier also goes away.(Also note that this doesn't revert the TASK_RUNNING cases: there is no
race between a wakeup and setting the process state to TASK_RUNNING,
since the end result doesn't depend on ordering).Cc: Jens Axboe

blk_poll() has always kept spinning until it found an IO. This is
fine for SYNC polling, since we need to find one request we have
pending, but in preparation for ASYNC polling it can be beneficial
to just check if we have any entries available or not.Existing callers are converted to pass in 'spin == true', to retain
the old behavior.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the

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.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/6d63d8668c4287a4f6d203d65696e96f80abdfc7.1536704650.git.osandov@fb.com

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further
iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.Signed-off-by: David Howells

A prior patch in this series added blkg association to bios issued by
cgroups. There are two other paths that we want to attribute work back
to the appropriate cgroup: swap and writeback. Here we modify the way
swap tags bios to include the blkg. Writeback will be tackle in the next
patch.Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou

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).Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1505886205-9671-5-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org

Pull core block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block storage for 4.15-rc1.Nothing out of the ordinary in here, and no API changes or anything
like that. Just various new features for drivers, core changes, etc.
In particular, this pull request contains:- A patch series from Bart, closing the whole on blk/scsi-mq queue
quescing.- A series from Christoph, building towards hidden gendisks (for
multipath) and ability to move bio chains around.- NVMe
- Support for native multipath for NVMe (Christoph).

of sync-all units. This goes all the way, as discussed previously
(me).- Fix for missing wakeup on writeback timer adjustments (Yafang

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

To support delay splitting THP (Transparent Huge Page) after swapped
out, we need to enhance swap writing code to support to write a THP as a
whole. This will improve swap write IO performance.As Ming Lei pointed out, this should be based on
multipage bvec support, which hasn't been merged yet. So this patch is
only for testing the functionality of the other patches in the series.
And will be reimplemented after multipage bvec support is merged.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170724051840.2309-7-ying.huang@intel.com

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
