Move pool refcounting functions into the pool section. First the
destroy functions, then the get and put which uses them.
__zswap_pool_empty() has an upward reference to the global
zswap_pools, to sanity check it's not the currently active pool that's
being freed. That gets the forward decl for zswap_pool_current().
This puts the get and put function above all callers, so kill the
forward decls as well.

The function ordering in zswap.c is a little chaotic, which requires
jumping in unexpected directions when following related code. This is
a series of patches that brings the file into the following order:
- pool functions
- lru functions
- rbtree functions
- zswap entry functions
- compression/backend functions
- writeback & shrinking functions
- store, load, invalidate, swapon, swapoff
- debugfs
- init
But it has to be split up such the moving still produces halfway
readable diffs.
In this patch, move pool allocation and freeing functions.

The branching is awkward and duplicates code. The comment about
writeback is also misleading: yes, the entry might have been written
back. Or it might have never been stored in zswap to begin with due to
a rejection - zswap_invalidate() is called on all exiting swap entries.

LRU writeback has race problem with swapoff, as spotted by Yosry [1]:
CPU1 CPU2
shrink_memcg_cb swap_off
list_lru_isolate zswap_invalidate
zswap_swapoff
kfree(tree)
// UAF
spin_lock(&tree->lock)
The problem is that the entry in lru list can't protect the tree from
being swapoff and freed, and the entry also can be invalidated and freed
concurrently after we unlock the lru lock.
We can fix it by moving the swap cache allocation ahead before referencing
the tree, then check invalidate race with tree lock, only after that we
can safely deref the entry. Note we couldn't deref entry or tree anymore
after we unlock the folio, since we depend on this to hold on swapoff.
So this patch moves all tree and entry usage to zswap_writeback_entry(),
we only use the copied swpentry on the stack to allocate swap cache and if
returned with folio locked we can reference the tree safely. Then we can
check invalidate race with tree lock, the following things is much the
same like zswap_load().
Since we can't deref the entry after zswap_writeback_entry(), we can't use
zswap_lru_putback() anymore, instead we rotate the entry in the beginning.
And it will be unlinked and freed when invalidated if writeback success.
Another change is we don't update the memcg nr_zswap_protected in the
-ENOMEM and -EEXIST cases anymore. -EEXIST case means we raced with
swapin or concurrent shrinker action, since swapin already have memcg
nr_zswap_protected updated, don't need double counts here. For concurrent
shrinker, the folio will be writeback and freed anyway. -ENOMEM case is
extremely rare and doesn't happen spuriously either, so don't bother
distinguishing this case.

During swapoff, try_to_unuse() makes sure that zswap_invalidate() is
called for all swap entries before zswap_swapoff() is called. This means
that all zswap entries should already be removed from the tree. Simplify
zswap_swapoff() by removing the trees cleanup code, and leave an assertion
in its place.

Each swapfile has one rb-tree to search the mapping of swp_entry_t to
zswap_entry, that use a spinlock to protect, which can cause heavy lock
contention if multiple tasks zswap_store/load concurrently.
Optimize the scalability problem by splitting the zswap rb-tree into
multiple rb-trees, each corresponds to SWAP_ADDRESS_SPACE_PAGES (64M),
just like we did in the swap cache address_space splitting.
Although this method can't solve the spinlock contention completely, it
can mitigate much of that contention. Below is the results of kernel
build in tmpfs with zswap shrinker enabled:
linux-next zswap-lock-optimize
real 1m9.181s 1m3.820s
user 17m44.036s 17m40.100s
sys 7m37.297s 4m54.622s
So there are clearly improvements.

Patch series "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree", v2.
When testing the zswap performance by using kernel build -j32 in a tmpfs
directory, I found the scalability of zswap rb-tree is not good, which is
protected by the only spinlock. That would cause heavy lock contention if
multiple tasks zswap_store/load concurrently.
So a simple solution is to split the only one zswap rb-tree into multiple
rb-trees, each corresponds to SWAP_ADDRESS_SPACE_PAGES (64M). This idea
is from the commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks").
Although this method can't solve the spinlock contention completely, it
can mitigate much of that contention. Below is the results of kernel
build in tmpfs with zswap shrinker enabled:
linux-next zswap-lock-optimize
real 1m9.181s 1m3.820s
user 17m44.036s 17m40.100s
sys 7m37.297s 4m54.622s
So there are clearly improvements. And it's complementary with the
ongoing zswap xarray conversion by Chris. Anyway, I think we can also
merge this first, it's complementary IMHO. So I just refresh and resend
this for further discussion.
This patch (of 2):
Not all zswap interfaces can handle the absence of the zswap rb-tree,
actually only zswap_store() has handled it for now.
To make things simple, we make sure each swapfile always have the zswap
rb-tree prepared before being enabled and used. The preparation is
unlikely to fail in practice, this patch just make it explicit.

The core-api create_workqueue is deprecated, this patch replaces the
create_workqueue with alloc_workqueue. The previous implementation
workqueue of zswap was a bounded workqueue, this patch uses
alloc_workqueue() to create an unbounded workqueue. The WQ_UNBOUND
attribute is desirable making the workqueue not localized to a specific
cpu so that the scheduler is free to exercise improvisations in any
demanding scenarios for offloading cpu time slices for workqueues. For
example if any other workqueues of the same primary cpu had to be served
which are WQ_HIGHPRI and WQ_CPU_INTENSIVE. Also Unbound workqueue happens
to be more efficient in a system during memory pressure scenarios in
comparison to a bounded workqueue.
shrink_wq = alloc_workqueue("zswap-shrink",
WQ_UNBOUND|WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, 1);
Overall the change suggested in this patch should be seamless and does not
alter the existing behavior, other than the improvisation to be an
unbounded workqueue.

When a folio is swapped in, the protection size of the corresponding zswap
LRU is incremented, so that the zswap shrinker is more conservative with
its reclaiming action. This field is embedded within the struct lruvec,
so updating it requires looking up the folio's memcg and lruvec. However,
currently this lookup can happen after the folio is unlocked, for instance
if a new folio is allocated, and swap_read_folio() unlocks the folio
before returning. In this scenario, there is no stability guarantee for
the binding between a folio and its memcg and lruvec:
* A folio's memcg and lruvec can be freed between the lookup and the
update, leading to a UAF.
* Folio migration can clear the now-unlocked folio's memcg_data, which
directs the zswap LRU protection size update towards the root memcg
instead of the original memcg. This was recently picked up by the
syzbot thanks to a warning in the inlined folio_lruvec() call.
Move the zswap LRU protection range update above the swap_read_folio()
call, and only when a new page is allocated, to prevent this.

In zswap_writeback_entry(), after we get a folio from
__read_swap_cache_async(), we grab the tree lock again to check that the
swap entry was not invalidated and recycled. If it was, we delete the
folio we just added to the swap cache and exit.
However, __read_swap_cache_async() returns the folio locked when it is
newly allocated, which is always true for this path, and the folio is
ref'd. Make sure to unlock and put the folio before returning.
This was discovered by code inspection, probably because this path handles
a race condition that should not happen often, and the bug would not crash
the system, it will only strand the folio indefinitely.

LRU_SKIP can only be returned if we don't ever dropped lru lock, or we
need to return LRU_RETRY to restart from the head of lru list.
Otherwise, the iteration might continue from a cursor position that was
freed while the locks were dropped.
Actually we may need to introduce another LRU_STOP to really terminate the
ongoing shrinking scan process, when we encounter a warm page already in
the swap cache. The current list_lru implementation doesn't have this
function to early break from __list_lru_walk_one.

During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to
occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping
IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to
save memory and improve performance where possible.
This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not
writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and
do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both
when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called).
This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new
cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is
the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root
cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its
parent.
Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as
it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself
consumes swap space in its current form).
This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap
writebacks.
For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who
have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the
workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are
using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive
but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to
even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal.
Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on
a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more
IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background
workloads.
For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate
them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and
specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes
to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times
(doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.):

Patch series "More swap folio conversions".
These all seem like fairly straightforward conversions to me. A lot of
compound_head() calls get removed. And page_swap_info(), which is nice.
This patch (of 13):
Move the folio->page conversion into the callers that actually want that.
Most of the callers are happier with the folio anyway. If the
page_allocated boolean is set, the folio allocated is of order-0, so it is
safe to pass the page directly to swap_readpage().

First of all, we need to rename acomp_ctx->dstmem field to buffer, since
we are now using for purposes other than compression.
Then we change per-cpu mutex and buffer to per-acomp_ctx, since them
belong to the acomp_ctx and are necessary parts when used in the
compress/decompress contexts.
So we can remove the old per-cpu mutex and dstmem.

Patch series "mm/zswap: dstmem reuse optimizations and cleanups", v5.
The problem this series tries to optimize is that zswap_load() and
zswap_writeback_entry() have to malloc a temporary memory to support
!zpool_can_sleep_mapped(). We can avoid it by reusing the percpu
crypto_acomp_ctx->dstmem, which is also used by zswap_store() and
protected by the same percpu crypto_acomp_ctx->mutex.
This patch (of 5):
In the !zpool_can_sleep_mapped() case such as zsmalloc, we need to first
copy the entry->handle memory to a temporary memory, which is allocated
using kmalloc.
Obviously we can reuse the per-compressor dstmem to avoid allocating every
time, since it's percpu-compressor and protected in percpu mutex.

Stats flushing for memcg currently follows the following rules:
- Always flush the entire memcg hierarchy (i.e. flush the root).
- Only one flusher is allowed at a time. If someone else tries to flush
concurrently, they skip and return immediately.
- A periodic flusher flushes all the stats every 2 seconds.
The reason this approach is followed is because all flushes are serialized
by a global rstat spinlock. On the memcg side, flushing is invoked from
userspace reads as well as in-kernel flushers (e.g. reclaim, refault,
etc). This approach aims to avoid serializing all flushers on the global
lock, which can cause a significant performance hit under high
concurrency.
This approach has the following problems:
- Occasionally a userspace read of the stats of a non-root cgroup will
be too expensive as it has to flush the entire hierarchy [1].
- Sometimes the stats accuracy are compromised if there is an ongoing
flush, and we skip and return before the subtree of interest is
actually flushed, yielding stale stats (by up to 2s due to periodic
flushing). This is more visible when reading stats from userspace,
but can also affect in-kernel flushers.
The latter problem is particulary a concern when userspace reads stats
after an event occurs, but gets stats from before the event. Examples:
- When memory usage / pressure spikes, a userspace OOM handler may look
at the stats of different memcgs to select a victim based on various
heuristics (e.g. how much private memory will be freed by killing
this). Reading stale stats from before the usage spike in this case
may cause a wrongful OOM kill.
- A proactive reclaimer may read the stats after writing to
memory.reclaim to measure the success of the reclaim operation. Stale
stats from before reclaim may give a false negative.
- Reading the stats of a parent and a child memcg may be inconsistent
(child larger than parent), if the flush doesn't happen when the
parent is read, but happens when the child is read.
As for in-kernel flushers, they will occasionally get stale stats. No
regressions are currently known from this, but if there are regressions,
they would be very difficult to debug and link to the source of the
problem.
This patch aims to fix these problems by restoring subtree flushing, and
removing the unified/coalesced flushing logic that skips flushing if there
is an ongoing flush. This change would introduce a significant regression
with global stats flushing thresholds. With per-memcg stats flushing
thresholds, this seems to perform really well. The thresholds protect the
underlying lock from unnecessary contention.
This patch was tested in two ways to ensure the latency of flushing is
up to par, on a machine with 384 cpus:
- A synthetic test with 5000 concurrent workers in 500 cgroups doing
allocations and reclaim, as well as 1000 readers for memory.stat
(variation of [2]). No regressions were noticed in the total runtime.
Note that significant regressions in this test are observed with
global stats thresholds, but not with per-memcg thresholds.
- A synthetic stress test for concurrently reading memcg stats while
memory allocation/freeing workers are running in the background,
provided by Wei Xu [3]. With 250k threads reading the stats every
100ms in 50k cgroups, 99.9% of reads take <= 50us. Less than 0.01%
of reads take more than 1ms, and no reads take more than 100ms.

Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is
hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are
unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious
memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead
of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as
memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages).
This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is
initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any
parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a
per-memcg basis.
Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent
overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into
memory), we build in the following heuristics:
* Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to
protect this region of the zswap LRU.
* Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory
saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages
we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively
small memory saving).
* During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being
brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its
shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer
region of the zswap LRU.
As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the
linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in
tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall
performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe
from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

Currently, we only have a single global LRU for zswap. This makes it
impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg cannot
determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages
from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice
and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u
This patch fully resolves the issue by replacing the global zswap LRU
with memcg- and NUMA-specific LRUs, and modify the reclaim logic:
a) When a store attempt hits an memcg limit, it now triggers a
synchronous reclaim attempt that, if successful, allows the new
hotter page to be accepted by zswap.
b) If the store attempt instead hits the global zswap limit, it will
trigger an asynchronous reclaim attempt, in which an memcg is
selected for reclaim in a round-robin-like fashion.

kmap_atomic() has been deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in
zswap.c.
kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables
page-faults and preemption (the latter only in !PREEMPT_RT kernels). The
kernel virtual addresses returned by these two API are only valid in the
context of the callers (i.e., they cannot be handed to other threads).
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread and CPU local like in
kmap_atomic(); however, they can handle page-faults and can be called from
any context (including interrupts). The tasks that call kmap_local_page()
can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the kernel
virtual addresses are restored and are still valid.
In mm/zswap.c, the blocks of code between the mappings and un-mappings do
not depend on the above-mentioned side effects of kmap_atomic(), so that
the mere replacements of the old API with the new one is all that is
required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly call pagefault_disable()
and/or preempt_disable()).

tracked in any of existing zswap counters, making it hard to monitor for

This patch adds a dedicated debugfs counter for compression algorithm

Shrink shmem's stack usage by eliminating the pseudo-vma from its folio
allocation. alloc_pages_mpol(gfp, order, pol, ilx, nid) becomes the
principal actor for passing mempolicy choice down to __alloc_pages(),
rather than vma_alloc_folio(gfp, order, vma, addr, hugepage).
vma_alloc_folio() and alloc_pages() remain, but as wrappers around
alloc_pages_mpol(). alloc_pages_bulk_*() untouched, except to provide the
additional args to policy_nodemask(), which subsumes policy_node().
Cleanup throughout, cutting out some unhelpful "helpers".
It would all be much simpler without MPOL_INTERLEAVE, but that adds a
dynamic to the constant mpol: complicated by v3.6 commit 09c231cb8b
("tmpfs: distribute interleave better across nodes"), which added ino bias
to the interleave, hidden from mm/mempolicy.c until this commit.
Hence "ilx" throughout, the "interleave index". Originally I thought it
could be done just with nid, but that's wrong: the nodemask may come from
the shared policy layer below a shmem vma, or it may come from the task
layer above a shmem vma; and without the final nodemask then nodeid cannot
be decided. And how ilx is applied depends also on page order.
The interleave index is almost always irrelevant unless MPOL_INTERLEAVE:
with one exception in alloc_pages_mpol(), where the NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX
passed down from vma-less alloc_pages() is also used as hint not to use
THP-style hugepage allocation - to avoid the overhead of a hugepage arg
(though I don't understand why we never just added a GFP bit for THP - if
it actually needs a different allocation strategy from other pages of the
same order). vma_alloc_folio() still carries its hugepage arg here, but
it is not used, and should be removed when agreed.
get_vma_policy() no longer allows a NULL vma: over time I believe we've
eradicated all the places which used to need it e.g. swapoff and madvise
used to pass NULL vma to read_swap_cache_async(), but now know the vma.

When a zswap store fails due to the limit, it acquires a pool reference
and queues the shrinker. When the shrinker runs, it drops the reference.
However, there can be multiple store attempts before the shrinker wakes up
and runs once. This results in reference leaks and eventual saturation
warnings for the pool refcount.
Fix this by dropping the reference again when the shrinker is already
queued. This ensures one reference per shrinker run.

While stress-testing zswap a memory corruption was happening when writing
back pages. __frontswap_store used to check for duplicate entries before
attempting to store a page in zswap, this was because if the store fails
the old entry isn't removed from the tree. This change removes duplicate
entries in zswap_store before the actual attempt.

Let's simply work on the folio directly and remove the helpers.

Since commit 0bb488498c ("mm: zswap: remove zswap_header"), the 'offset'
has been replaced by swpentry, update the comment for it, and also add
comment for 'objcg'.

The __read_swap_cache_async() interface isn't more difficult to understand
than what the helper abstracts. Save the indirection and a level of
indentation for the primary work of the writeback func.

Removing a zswap entry from the tree is tied to an explicit operation
that's supposed to drop the base reference: swap invalidation, exclusive
load, duplicate store. Don't silently remove the entry on final put, but
instead warn if an entry is in tree without reference.
While in that diff context, convert a BUG_ON to a WARN_ON_ONCE. No need
to crash on a refcount underflow.

Patch series "mm: zswap: three cleanups".
Three small cleanups to zswap, the first one suggested by Yosry during the
frontswap removal.
This patch (of 3):
Minor cleanup. Instead of open-coding the tree deletion and the put, use
the zswap_invalidate_entry() convenience helper.
