When running low on usable slots, cluster allocator will try to reclaim
the full clusters aggressively to reclaim HAS_CACHE slots. This
guarantees that as long as there are any usable slots, HAS_CACHE or not,
the swap device will be usable and workload won't go OOM early.
Before the cluster allocator, swap allocator fails easily if device is
filled up with reclaimable HAS_CACHE slots. Which can be easily
reproduced with following simple program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <linux/mman.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define SIZE 8192UL * 1024UL * 1024UL
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
long tmp;
char *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
memset(p, 0, SIZE);
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
for (unsigned long i = 0; i < SIZE; ++i)
tmp += p[i];
getchar(); /* Pause */
return 0;
}
Setup an 8G non ramdisk swap, the first run of the program will swapout 8G
ram successfully. But run same program again after the first run paused,
the second run can't swapout all 8G memory as now half of the swap device
is pinned by HAS_CACHE. There was a random scan in the old allocator that
may reclaim part of the HAS_CACHE by luck, but it's unreliable.
The new allocator's added reclaim of full clusters when device is low on
usable slots. But when multiple CPUs are seeing the device is low on
usable slots at the same time, they ran into a thundering herd problem.
This is an observable problem on large machine with mass parallel
workload, as full cluster reclaim is slower on large swap device and
higher number of CPUs will also make things worse.
Testing using a 128G ZRAM on a 48c96t system. When the swap device is
very close to full (eg. 124G / 128G), running build linux kernel with
make -j96 in a 1G memory cgroup will hung (not a softlockup though)
spinning in full cluster reclaim for about ~5min before go OOM.
To solve this, split the full reclaim into two parts:
- Instead of do a synchronous aggressively reclaim when device is low,
do only one aggressively reclaim when device is strictly full with a
kworker. This still ensures in worst case the device won't be unusable
because of HAS_CACHE slots.
- To avoid allocation (especially higher order) suffer from HAS_CACHE
filling up clusters and kworker not responsive enough, do one synchronous
scan every time the free list is drained, and only scan one cluster. This
is kind of similar to the random reclaim before, keeps the full clusters
rotated and has a minimal latency. This should provide a fair reclaim
strategy suitable for most workloads.

I got a bad pud error and lost a 1GB HugeTLB when calling swapoff. The
problem can be reproduced by the following steps:
1. Allocate an anonymous 1GB HugeTLB and some other anonymous memory.
2. Swapout the above anonymous memory.
3. run swapoff and we will get a bad pud error in kernel message:
mm/pgtable-generic.c:42: bad pud 00000000743d215d(84000001400000e7)
We can tell that pud_clear_bad is called by pud_none_or_clear_bad in
unuse_pud_range() by ftrace. And therefore the HugeTLB pages will never
be freed because we lost it from page table. We can skip HugeTLB pages
for unuse_vma to fix it.

A report [1] was uploaded from syzbot.
In the previous commit 862590ac3708 ("mm: swap: allow cache reclaim to
skip slot cache"), the __try_to_reclaim_swap() function reads offset and
folio->entry from folio without folio_lock protection.
In the currently reported KCSAN log, it is assumed that the actual
data-race will not occur because the calltrace that does WRITE already
obtains the folio_lock and then writes.
However, the existing __try_to_reclaim_swap() function was already
implemented to perform reads under folio_lock protection [1], and there is
a risk of a data-race occurring through a function other than the one
shown in the KCSAN log.
Therefore, I think it is appropriate to change
read operations for folio to be performed under folio_lock.

Patch series "mm: store zero pages to be swapped out in a bitmap", v8.
As shown in the patch series that introduced the zswap same-filled
optimization [1], 10-20% of the pages stored in zswap are same-filled.
This is also observed across Meta's server fleet. By using VM counters in
swap_writepage (not included in this patchseries) it was found that less
than 1% of the same-filled pages to be swapped out are non-zero pages.
For conventional swap setup (without zswap), rather than reading/writing
these pages to flash resulting in increased I/O and flash wear, a bitmap
can be used to mark these pages as zero at write time, and the pages can
be filled at read time if the bit corresponding to the page is set.
When using zswap with swap, this also means that a zswap_entry does not
need to be allocated for zero filled pages resulting in memory savings
which would offset the memory used for the bitmap.
A similar attempt was made earlier in [2] where zswap would only track
zero-filled pages instead of same-filled. This patchseries adds
zero-filled pages optimization to swap (hence it can be used even if zswap
is disabled) and removes the same-filled code from zswap (as only 1% of
the same-filled pages are non-zero), simplifying code.

We've been noticing a trend of significant lock contention in the swap
subsystem as core counts have been increasing in our fleet. It turns out
that our swapfiles on btrfs on flash were in fact using the old swap code
for rotational storage.
This turns out to be a detection issue in the swapon sequence: btrfs sets
si->bdev during swap activation, which currently happens *after* swapon's
SSD detection and cluster setup. Thus, none of the SSD optimizations and
cluster lock splitting are enabled for btrfs swap.
Rearrange the swapon sequence so that filesystem activation happens
*before* determining swap behavior based on the backing device.
Afterwards, the nonrotational drive is detected correctly:

Patch series "support large folio swap-out and swap-in for shmem", v5.
Shmem will support large folio allocation [1] [2] to get a better
performance, however, the memory reclaim still splits the precious large
folios when trying to swap-out shmem, which may lead to the memory
fragmentation issue and can not take advantage of the large folio for
shmeme.
Moreover, the swap code already supports for swapping out large folio
without split, and large folio swap-in[3] series is queued into
mm-unstable branch. Hence this patch set also supports the large folio
swap-out and swap-in for shmem.
This patch (of 9):
To support shmem large folio swap operations, add a new parameter to
swap_shmem_alloc() that allows batch SWAP_MAP_SHMEM flag setting for shmem
swap entries.
While we are at it, using folio_nr_pages() to get the number of pages of
the folio as a preparation.

Zhiguo reported that swap release could be a serious bottleneck during
process exits[1]. With mTHP, we have the opportunity to batch free swaps.
Thanks to the work of Chris and Kairui[2], I was able to achieve this
optimization with minimal code changes by building on their efforts.
If swap_count is 1, which is likely true as most anon memory are private,
we can free all contiguous swap slots all together.
Ran the below test program for measuring the bandwidth of munmap
using zRAM and 64KiB mTHP:
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
unsigned long long tv_to_ms(struct timeval tv)
{
return tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000;
}
main()
{
struct timeval tv_b, tv_e;
int i;
#define SIZE 1024*1024*1024
void *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (!p) {
perror("fail to get memory");
exit(-1);
}
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);
memset(p, 0x11, SIZE); /* write to get mem */
madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
gettimeofday(&tv_b, NULL);
munmap(p, SIZE);
gettimeofday(&tv_e, NULL);
printf("munmap in bandwidth: %ld bytes/ms\n",
SIZE/(tv_to_ms(tv_e) - tv_to_ms(tv_b)));
}
The result is as below (munmap bandwidth):
mm-unstable mm-unstable-with-patch
round1 21053761 63161283
round2 21053761 63161283
round3 21053761 63161283
round4 20648881 67108864
round5 20648881 67108864
munmap bandwidth becomes 3X faster.

Batch free swap slots for zap_pte_range(), making munmap three times
faster when the page table entries are filled with swap entries to
be freed. This is likely another advantage of using mTHP.

Link all full cluster with one full list, and reclaim from it when the
allocation have ran out of all usable clusters.
There are many reason a folio can end up being in the swap cache while
having no swap count reference. So the best way to search for such slots
is still by iterating the swap clusters.
With the list as an LRU, iterating from the oldest cluster and keep them
rotating is a very doable and clean way to free up potentially not inuse
clusters.
When any allocation failure, try reclaim and rotate only one cluster.
This is adaptive for high order allocations they can tolerate fallback.
So this avoids latency, and give the full cluster list an fair chance to
get reclaimed. It release the usage stress for the fallback order 0
allocation or following up high order allocation.
If the swap device is getting very full, reclaim more aggresively to
ensure no OOM will happen. This ensures order 0 heavy workload won't go
OOM as order 0 won't fail if any cluster still have any space.

This commit implements reclaim during scan for cluster allocator.
Cluster scanning were unable to reuse SWAP_HAS_CACHE slots, which could
result in low allocation success rate or early OOM.
So to ensure maximum allocation success rate, integrate reclaiming with
scanning. If found a range of suitable swap slots but fragmented due to
HAS_CACHE, just try to reclaim the slots.

Now swap cluster allocator arranges the clusters in LRU style, so the
"cold" cluster stay at the head of nonfull lists are the ones that were
used for allocation long time ago and still partially occupied. So if
allocator can't find enough contiguous slots to satisfy an high order
allocation, it's unlikely there will be slot being free on them to satisfy
the allocation, at least in a short period.
As a result, nonfull cluster scanning will waste time repeatly scanning
the unusable head of the list.
Also, multiple CPUs could content on the same head cluster of nonfull
list. Unlike free clusters which are removed from the list when any CPU
starts using it, nonfull cluster stays on the head.
So introduce a new list frag list, all scanned nonfull clusters will be
moved to this list. Both for avoiding repeated scanning and contention.
Frag list is still used as fallback for allocations, so if one CPU failed
to allocate one order of slots, it can still steal other CPU's clusters.
And order 0 will favor the fragmented clusters to better protect nonfull
clusters
If any slots on a fragment list are being freed, move the fragment list
back to nonfull list indicating it worth another scan on the cluster.
Compared to scan upon freeing a slot, this keep the scanning lazy and save
some CPU if there are still other clusters to use.
It may seems unneccessay to keep the fragmented cluster on list at all if
they can't be used for specific order allocation. But this will start to

Currently we free the reclaimed slots through slot cache even if the slot
is required to be empty immediately. As a result the reclaim caller will
see the slot still occupied even after a successful reclaim, and need to
keep reclaiming until slot cache get flushed. This caused ineffective or
over reclaim when SWAP is under stress.
So introduce a new flag allowing the slot to be emptied bypassing the slot
cache.

Currently when we are freeing mTHP folios from swap cache, we free then
one by one and put each entry into swap slot cache. Slot cache is
designed to reduce the overhead by batching the freeing, but mTHP swap
entries are already continuous so they can be batch freed without it
already, it saves litle overhead, or even increase overhead for larger
mTHP.
What's more, mTHP entries could stay in swap cache for a while.
Contiguous swap entry is an rather rare resource so releasing them
directly can help improve mTHP allocation success rate when under
pressure.

inc_cluster_info_page is called by initialization only, a lot of dead code

Previously the SSD and HDD share the same swap_map scan loop in
scan_swap_map_slots(). This function is complex and hard to flow the
execution flow.
scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() can already do most of the heavy lifting
to locate the candidate swap range in the cluster. However it needs to go
back to scan_swap_map_slots() to check conflict and then perform the
allocation.
When scan_swap_map_try_ssd_cluster() failed, it still depended on the
scan_swap_map_slots() to do brute force scanning of the swap_map. When
the swapfile is large and almost full, it will take some CPU time to go
through the swap_map array.
Get rid of the cluster allocation dependency on the swap_map scan loop in
scan_swap_map_slots(). Streamline the cluster allocation code path. No
more conflict checks.
For order 0 swap entry, when run out of free and nonfull list. It will
allocate from the higher order nonfull cluster list.
Users should see less CPU time spent on searching the free swap slot when
swapfile is almost full.

Track the nonfull cluster as well as the empty cluster on lists. Each
order has one nonfull cluster list.
The cluster will remember which order it was used during new cluster
allocation.
When the cluster has free entry, add to the nonfull[order] list. When
the free cluster list is empty, also allocate from the nonempty list of
that order.
This improves the mTHP swap allocation success rate.
There are limitations if the distribution of numbers of different orders
of mTHP changes a lot. e.g. there are a lot of nonfull cluster assign to
order A while later time there are a lot of order B allocation while very
little allocation in order A. Currently the cluster used by order A will
not reused by order B unless the cluster is 100% empty.

Patch series "mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order",
v5.
This is the short term solutions "swap cluster order" listed in my "Swap
Abstraction" discussion slice 8 in the recent LSF/MM conference.
When commit 845982eb264bc "mm: swap: allow storage of all mTHP orders" is
introduced, it only allocates the mTHP swap entries from the new empty
cluster list. It has a fragmentation issue reported by Barry.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAGsJ_4zAcJkuW016Cfi6wicRr8N9X+GJJhgMQdSMp+Ah+NSgNQ@mail.gmail.com/
The reason is that all the empty clusters have been exhausted while there
are plenty of free swap entries in the cluster that are not 100% free.
Remember the swap allocation order in the cluster. Keep track of the per
order non full cluster list for later allocation.
This series gives the swap SSD allocation a new separate code path from
the HDD allocation. The new allocator use cluster list only and do not
global scan swap_map[] without lock any more.
This streamline the swap allocation for SSD. The code matches the
execution flow much better.
User impact: For users that allocate and free mix order mTHP swapping, It
greatly improves the success rate of the mTHP swap allocation after the
initial phase.
It also performs faster when the swapfile is close to full, because the
allocator can get the non full cluster from a list rather than scanning a
lot of swap_map entries.

This patch (of 9):
Previously, the swap cluster used a cluster index as a pointer to
construct a custom single link list type "swap_cluster_list". The next
cluster pointer is shared with the cluster->count. It prevents puting the
non free cluster into a list.
Change the cluster to use the standard double link list instead. This
allows tracing the nonfull cluster in the follow up patch. That way, it
is faster to get to the nonfull cluster of that order.
Remove the cluster getter/setter for accessing the cluster struct member.
The list operation is protected by the swap_info_struct->lock.
Change cluster code to use "struct swap_cluster_info *" to reference the
cluster rather than by using index. That is more consistent with the list
manipulation. It avoids the repeat adding index to the cluser_info. The
code is easier to understand.
Remove the cluster next pointer is NULL flag, the double link list can
handle the empty list pretty well.
The "swap_cluster_info" struct is two pointer bigger, because 512 swap
entries share one swap_cluster_info struct, it has very little impact on
the average memory usage per swap entry. For 1TB swapfile, the swap
cluster data structure increases from 8MB to 24MB.
Other than the list conversion, there is no real function change in this
patch.

The unuse_pte_range() caller only wants the folio while do_swap_page()
wants both the page and the folio. Since do_swap_page() already has logic
for handling both the folio and the page, move the folio-to-page logic
there. This also lets us allocate larger folios in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
path in future.

support large folios
Right now, swapcache_prepare() and swapcache_clear() supports one entry
only, to support large folios, we need to handle multiple swap entries.
To optimize stack usage, we iterate twice in __swap_duplicate(): the first
time to verify that all entries are valid, and the second time to apply
the modifications to the entries.
Currently, we're using nr=1 for the existing users.

Extend a usage parameter so that cluster_swap_free_nr() can be reused by
both swapcache_clear() and swap_free(). __swap_entry_free() is quite
similar but more tricky as it requires the return value of
__swap_entry_free_locked() which cluster_swap_free_nr() doesn't support.

For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or
non-EXCLUSIVE. This action will suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check
within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating the process of bringing up
mTHP swapin.
static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio,
struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level)
{
...
if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) {
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) &&
level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio);
}
...
}
It also improves the code's readability. Currently, all new anonymous
folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0. This ensures that
new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely
exclusive or entirely shared.
A useful comment from Hugh's fix:
: Commit "mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==
: false" has extended folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to use on non-exclusive
: folios, already visible to others in swap cache and on LRU.
:
: That renders its non-atomic __folio_set_swapbacked() unsafe: it risks
: overwriting concurrent atomic operations on folio->flags, losing bits
: added or restoring bits cleared. Since it's only used in this risky way
: when folio_test_locked and !folio_test_anon, many such races are excluded;
: but, for example, isolations by folio_test_clear_lru() are vulnerable, and
: setting or clearing active.
:
: It could just use the atomic folio_set_swapbacked(); but this function
: does try to avoid atomics where it can, so use a branch instead: just
: avoid setting swapbacked when it is already set, that is good enough.
: (Swapbacked is normally stable once set: lazyfree can undo it, but only
: later, when found anon in a page table.)
:
: This fixes a lot of instability under compaction and swapping loads:
: assorted "Bad page"s, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO()s, apparently even page double
: frees - though I've not worked out what races could lead to the latter.

Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2.
This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin.
folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always
exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like
do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is
not necessarily exclusive.
