Miaohe Lin 548d9782bd mm/page_io.c: remove useless out label in __swap_writepage()
The out label is only used in one place and return ret directly without
something like resource cleanup or lock release and so on.  So we should
remove this jump label and do some cleanup.

Gao Xiang 3264631548 swap: rename SWP_FS to SWAP_FS_OPS to avoid ambiguity
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.

Steven Price 8a84802e2a mm: Add arch hooks for saving/restoring tags
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().
One new hook is added to shmem:
 * arch_swap_restore()

Xianting Tian 0f190a7ab7 mm/page_io.c: use blk_io_schedule() for avoiding task hung in sync io
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().

Mike Rapoport e31cf2f4ca mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included
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 <asm/pgtable.h> 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 <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
	done

Carlos Maiolino 30460e1ea3 fs: Enable bmap() function to properly return errors
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 hole

In 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.

the annotation in submit_bio() for refault stall doesn't work.  It

Vinayak Menon 5df373e956 mm/page_io.c: do not free shared swap slots
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.
Virtual address 'VA' of Pa and Pb points to the shared swap entry.

Pa                                       Pb

                                         Pb scheduled out

                                         swap_readpage (swap_count == 1)
                                         Takes SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path

                                         zram gives a zero filled page

Fix this by making sure that swap slot is freed only when swap count
drops down to one.

Aaron Lu 4efaceb1c5 mm, swap: use rbtree for swap_extent
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
  Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
  ... ...
  /dev/nvme0n1p1  1.8T  1.3T  504G  72% /home/t4

When 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
  kernel   swapout(KB/s) map_swap_entry(perf)  swapin(KB/s) map_swap_entry(perf)
  vanilla  165191           90.77%             171798          90.21%
  patched  858993 +420%      2.16%             715827 +317%     0.77%

  patched  954437 +211%      2.35%            1073741 +237%     1.57%

swapout: the throughput of swap out, in KB/s, higher is better 1st
map_swap_entry: cpu cycles percent sampled by perf swapin: the
throughput of swap in, in KB/s, higher is better.  2nd map_swap_entry:
cpu cycles percent sampled by perf

nr_task=1 doesn't show any difference, this is due to the curr_swap_extent
can be effectively used to cache the correct swap extent for single task
workload.

Oleg Nesterov 8751853091 swap_readpage(): avoid blk_wake_io_task() if !synchronous
swap_readpage() sets waiter = bio->bi_private even if synchronous = F,
this means that the caller can get the spurious wakeup after return.

This can be fatal if blk_wake_io_task() does
set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after the caller does
set_special_state(), in the worst case the kernel can crash in
do_task_dead().

Huang Ying 1a5f439c7c mm, swap: fix THP swap out
0-Day test system reported some OOM regressions for several THP
(Transparent Huge Page) swap test cases.  These regressions are bisected
to 6861428921 ("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 6861428921 ("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 6861428921
("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.

Jens Axboe b685a7350a mm/page_io.c: fix polled swap page in
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.

Linus Torvalds 1ac5cd4978 block: don't use un-ordered __set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
This mostly reverts commit 849a370016 ("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).

Omar Sandoval bc4ae27d81 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.

David Howells aa563d7bca iov_iter: Separate type from direction and use accessor functions
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.

Minchan Kim 0bcac06f27 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).

   - Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq
     like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup.

   - Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers,

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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 <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Huang Ying 225311a464 mm: test code to write THP to swap device as a whole
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 <ming.lei@redhat.com> 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.

Christoph Hellwig 74d46992e0 block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index
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.

Shaohua Li 23955622ff 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.

Santosh Shilimkar c8de641b1e mm: fix the page_swap_info() BUG_ON check
Commit 62c230bc17 ("mm: add support for a filesystem to activate
swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages") replaced the
swap_aops dirty hook from __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() with
swap_set_page_dirty().

For normal cases without these special SWP flags code path falls back to
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback() so the behaviour is expected to be the
same as before.

But swap_set_page_dirty() makes use of the page_swap_info() helper to
get the swap_info_struct to check for the flags like SWP_FILE,
SWP_BLKDEV etc as desired for those features.  This helper has
BUG_ON(!PageSwapCache(page)) which is racy and safe only for the
set_page_dirty_lock() path.

For the set_page_dirty() path which is often needed for cases to be
called from irq context, kswapd() can toggle the flag behind the back
while the call is getting executed when system is low on memory and
heavy swapping is ongoing.

This ends up with undesired kernel panic.

This patch just moves the check outside the helper to its users
appropriately to fix kernel panic for the described path.  Couple of
users of helpers already take care of SwapCache condition so I skipped
them.

Mikulas Patocka 7e4411bfe6 mm: add cond_resched() to generic_swapfile_activate()
generic_swapfile_activate() can take quite long time, it iterates over
all blocks of a file, so add cond_resched to it.  I observed about 1
second stalls when activating a swapfile that was almost unfragmented -
this patch fixes it.

Mike Christie 95fe6c1a20 block, fs, mm, drivers: use bio set/get op accessors
This patch converts the simple bi_rw use cases in the block,
drivers, mm and fs code to set/get the bio operation using
bio_set_op_attrs/bio_op

These should be simple one or two liner cases, so I just did them
in one patch. The next patches handle the more complicated
cases in a module per patch.

Mike Christie 4e49ea4a3d block/fs/drivers: remove rw argument from submit_bio
This has callers of submit_bio/submit_bio_wait set the bio->bi_rw
instead of passing it in. This makes that use the same as
generic_make_request and how we set the other bio fields.
