[PATCH 12/13] MM: use AIO/DIO for reads from SWP_FS_OPS swap-space
From: NeilBrown
Date: Mon Nov 15 2021 - 21:50:06 EST
When pages a read from SWP_FS_OPS swap-space, the reads are submitted as
separate reads for each page. This is generally less efficient than
larger reads.
We can use the block-plugging infrastructure to delay submitting the
read request until multiple contigious pages have been collected. This
requires using ->direct_IO to submit the read (as ->readpages isn't
suitable for swap).
If the caller schedules before unplugging, we hand the read-in task off
to systemwq to avoid any possible locking issues.
