The mTHP swap related counters: 'anon_swpout' and 'anon_swpout_fallback'
are confusing with an 'anon_' prefix, since the shmem can swap out
non-anonymous pages. So drop the 'anon_' prefix to keep consistent with
the old swap counter names.
This is needed in 6.10-rcX to avoid having an inconsistent ABI out in the
field.

This helps to display the fragmentation situation of the swapfile, knowing
the proportion of how much we haven't split large folios. So far, we only
support non-split swapout for anon memory, with the possibility of
expanding to shmem in the future. So, we add the "anon" prefix to the
counter names.

Commit d0637c505f8a1 ("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") brings up
THP_SWAP on ARM64, but it doesn't enable THP_SWP on hardware with MTE as
the MTE code works with the assumption tags save/restore is always
handling a folio with only one page.
The limitation should be removed as more and more ARM64 SoCs have this
feature. Co-existence of MTE and THP_SWAP becomes more and more
important.
This patch makes MTE tags saving support large folios, then we don't need
to split large folios into base pages for swapping out on ARM64 SoCs with
MTE any more.
arch_prepare_to_swap() should take folio rather than page as parameter
because we support THP swap-out as a whole. It saves tags for all pages
in a large folio.
As now we are restoring tags based-on folio, in arch_swap_restore(), we
may increase some extra loops and early-exitings while refaulting a large
folio which is still in swapcache in do_swap_page(). In case a large
folio has nr pages, do_swap_page() will only set the PTE of the particular
page which is causing the page fault. Thus do_swap_page() runs nr times,
and each time, arch_swap_restore() will loop nr times for those subpages
in the folio. So right now the algorithmic complexity becomes O(nr^2).
Once we support mapping large folios in do_swap_page(), extra loops and
early-exitings will decrease while not being completely removed as a large
folio might get partially tagged in corner cases such as, 1. a large
folio in swapcache can be partially unmapped, thus, MTE tags for the
unmapped pages will be invalidated; 2. users might use mprotect() to set
MTEs on a part of a large folio.
arch_thp_swp_supported() is dropped since ARM64 MTE was the only one who
needed it.

During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to
occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping
IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to
save memory and improve performance where possible.
This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not
writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and
do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both
when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called).
This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new
cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is
the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root
cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its
parent.
Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as
it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself
consumes swap space in its current form).
This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/
as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap
writebacks.
For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who
have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the
workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are
using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive
but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to
even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal.
Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on
a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more
IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background
workloads.
For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate
them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and
specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes
to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times
(doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.):
zswap.writeback disabled:
real 0m30.537s
user 0m23.687s
sys 0m6.637s
0 pages swapped in
0 pages swapped out
zswap.writeback enabled:
real 0m45.061s
user 0m24.310s
sys 0m8.892s
712686 pages swapped in
461093 pages swapped out
(the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

At present, we support per-memcg reclaim strategy, however we do not know
the number of transparent huge pages being reclaimed, as we know the
transparent huge pages need to be splited before reclaim them, and they
will bring some performance bottleneck effect. for example, when two
memcg (A & B) are doing reclaim for anonymous pages at same time, and 'A'
memcg is reclaiming a large number of transparent huge pages, we can
better analyze that the performance bottleneck will be caused by 'A'
memcg. therefore, in order to better analyze such problems, there add THP
swap out info for per-memcg.

Patch series "Followup folio conversions for zswap".
With frontswap killed, it's worth converting the zswap_load() and
zswap_store() functions to take a folio instead of a page pointer. They
aren't converted to support large folios, but there are a lot of
unnecessary calls to compound_head() that are removed by these patches.
This patch (of 4):
Only convert a few easy parts of this function to use the folio passed in;
convert back to struct page for the majority of it. This does remove a
few hidden calls to compound_head().

The swap code only adds a single page to a newly created bio. So use
__bio_add_page() to add the page which is guaranteed to succeed in this
case.
This brings us closer to marking bio_add_page() as __must_check.

The ->rw_page method is a special purpose bypass of the usual bio handling
path that is limited to single-page reads and writes and synchronous which
causes a lot of extra code in the drivers, callers and the block layer.
The only remaining user is the MM swap code. Switch that swap code to
simply submit a single-vec on-stack bio an synchronously wait on it based
on a newly added QUEUE_FLAG_SYNCHRONOUS flag set by the drivers that
currently implement ->rw_page instead. While this touches one extra cache
line and executes extra code, it simplifies the block layer and drivers
and ensures that all feastures are properly supported by all drivers, e.g.
right now ->rw_page bypassed cgroup writeback entirely.

Once upon a time, we only support accounting thrashing of page cache.
Then Joonsoo introduced workingset detection for anonymous pages and we
gained the ability to account thrashing of them[1].
Likes PSI, we count submission time as thrashing delay because when the
device is congested, or the submitting cgroup IO-throttled, submission can
be a significant part of overall IO time.
Without this patch, swap thrashing through frontswap or some block
device supporting rw_page operation isn't measured correctly.
This patch is based on "delayacct: support re-entrance detection of
thrashing accounting".

Pages passed to swap_readpage()/swap_writepage() are not necessarily all
the same size - there may be transparent-huge-pages involves.
The BIO paths of swap_*page() handle this correctly, but the SWP_FS_OPS
path does not.
So we need to use thp_size() to find the size, not just assume PAGE_SIZE,
and we need to track the total length of the request, not just assume it
is "page * PAGE_SIZE".

swap_writepage() is given one page at a time, but may be called repeatedly
in succession.
For block-device swapspace, the blk_plug functionality allows the multiple
pages to be combined together at lower layers. That cannot be used for
SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is only active when
CONFIG_BLOCK=y. Consequently all swap reads over NFS are single page
reads.
With this patch we pass a pointer-to-pointer via the wbc. swap_writepage
can store state between calls - much like the pointer passed explicitly to
swap_readpage. After calling swap_writepage() some number of times, the
state will be passed to swap_write_unplug() which can submit the combined
request.

This patch switches swap-out to SWP_FS_OPS swap-spaces to use ->swap_rw
and makes the writes asynchronous, like they are for other swap spaces.
To make it async we need to allocate the kiocb struct from a mempool.
This may block, but won't block as long as waiting for the write to
complete. At most it will wait for some previous swap IO to complete.

swap currently uses ->readpage to read swap pages. This can only request
one page at a time from the filesystem, which is not most efficient.
swap uses ->direct_IO for writes which while this is adequate is an
inappropriate over-loading. ->direct_IO may need to had handle allocate
space for holes or other details that are not relevant for swap.
So this patch introduces a new address_space operation: ->swap_rw. In
this patch it is used for reads, and a subsequent patch will switch writes
to use it.
No filesystem yet supports ->swap_rw, but that is not a problem because
no filesystem actually works with filesystem-based swap.
Only two filesystems set SWP_FS_OPS:
- cifs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO always fails so swap cannot work.
- nfs sets the flag, but ->direct_IO calls generic_write_checks()
which has failed on swap files for several releases.
To ensure that a NULL ->swap_rw isn't called, ->activate_swap() for both
NFS and cifs are changed to fail if ->swap_rw is not set. This can be
removed if/when the function is added.
Future patches will restore swap-over-NFS functionality.
To submit an async read with ->swap_rw() we need to allocate a structure
to hold the kiocb and other details. swap_readpage() cannot handle
transient failure, so we create a mempool to provide the structures.

folios that are written to swap are owned by the MM subsystem - not any
filesystem.
When such a folio is passed to a filesystem to be written out to a
swap-file, the filesystem handles the data, but the folio itself does not
belong to the filesystem. So calling the filesystem's ->dirty_folio()
address_space operation makes no sense. This is for folios in the given
address space, and a folio to be written to swap does not exist in the
given address space.
So drop swap_dirty_folio() which calls the address-space's
->dirty_folio(), and always use noop_dirty_folio(), which is appropriate
for folios being swapped out.
