[PATCH v4 1/6] mm: swap: Remove CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE from swap_cluster_info:flags

From: Ryan Roberts
Date: Mon Mar 11 2024 - 11:01:37 EST


As preparation for supporting small-sized THP in the swap-out path,
without first needing to split to order-0, Remove the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE,
which, when present, always implies PMD-sized THP, which is the same as
the cluster size.

The only use of the flag was to determine whether a swap entry refers to
a single page or a PMD-sized THP in swap_page_trans_huge_swapped().
Instead of relying on the flag, we now pass in nr_pages, which
originates from the folio's number of pages. This allows the logic to
work for folios of any order.

The one snag is that one of the swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() call
sites does not have the folio. But it was only being called there to
shortcut a call __try_to_reclaim_swap() in some cases.
__try_to_reclaim_swap() gets the folio and (via some other functions)
calls swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). So I've removed the problematic
call site and believe the new logic should be functionally equivalent.

That said, removing the fast path means that we will take a reference
and trylock a large folio much more often, which we would like to avoid.
The next patch will solve this.

Removing CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE also means we can remove split_swap_cluster()
which used to be called during folio splitting, since
split_swap_cluster()'s only job was to remove the flag.
