[PATCHv2 0/7] zsmalloc: preemptible object mapping

From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Wed Jan 29 2025 - 23:45:08 EST


This is Part II of the series [1] that makes zram read() and write()
preemptible. This part focuses only zsmalloc because zsmalloc imposes
atomicity restrictions on its users. One notable example is object
mapping API, which returns with:
a) local CPU lock held
b) zspage rwlock held

First, zsmalloc is converted to use sleepable RW-"lock" (it's atomic_t
in fact) for zspage migration protection. Second, a new handle mapping
is introduced which doesn't use per-CPU buffers (and hence no local CPU
lock), does fewer memcpy() calls, but requires users to provide a
pointer to temp buffer for object copy-in (when needed). Third, zram is
converted to the new zsmalloc mapping API and thus zram read() becomes
preemptible.

v1 -> v2:
- Tweak cmpxchg loop (Uros)
- Addressed feedback provided by Yosry

Sergey Senozhatsky (7):
zsmalloc: factor out pool locking helpers

zsmalloc: make zspage lock preemptible
zsmalloc: introduce new object mapping API
zram: switch to new zsmalloc object mapping API
zram: add might_sleep to zcomp API
