[PATCH v3 0/6] mm/zswap: dstmem reuse optimizations and cleanups

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Mon Dec 18 2023 - 06:58:48 EST


Hi everyone,

Changes in v3:
- Collect Reviewed-by tag.
- Drop the __zswap_store() refactoring part.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213-zswap-dstmem-v2-0-daa5d9ae41a7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v2:
- Add more changelog and test data about changing dstmem to one page.
- Reorder patches to put dstmem reusing and __zswap_load() refactoring
together, still refactor after dstmem reusing since we don't want
to handle __zswap_load() failure due to memory allocation failure
in zswap_writeback_entry().
- Append a patch to directly use percpu mutex and buffer in load/store
and refactor out __zswap_store() to simplify zswap_store().
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213-zswap-dstmem-v1-0-896763369d04@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

This series is split from [1] to only include zswap dstmem reuse
optimizations and cleanups, the other part of rbtree breakdown will
be deferred to retest after the rbtree converted to xarray.

And 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.
