After removing the cache bypass swapin, the first thing could be
gone is all the clear_shadow_from_swap_cache calls. Currently
clear_shadow_from_swap_cache is being called in many paths.
It's currently being called by swap_range_free which has two
direct callers:
- swap_free_cluster, which is only called by put_swap_folio to free up
the shadow of a slot cluster.
- swap_entry_free, which is only called by swapcache_free_entries to
free up shadow of a slot.
And these two are very commonly used everywhere in SWAP codes.
Notice the shadow is only written by __delete_from_swap_cache after
after a successful SWAP out, so clearly we only want to clear shadow
after SWAP in (the shadow is used and no longer needed) or Unmap/MADV_FREE.
After all swapin is using cached swapin path, clear_shadow_from_swap_cache
is not needed for swapin anymore, because we have to insert the folio
first, and this already removed the shadow. So we only need to clear the
shadow for Unmap/MADV_FREE.
All direct/indirect caller of swap_free_cluster and swap_entry_free
are listed below:
- swap_free_cluster:
-> put_swap_folio (Clean the cache flag and try delete shadow, after
removing the cache or error handling)
-> delete_from_swap_cache
-> __remove_mapping
-> shmem_writepage
-> folio_alloc_swap
-> add_to_swap
-> __read_swap_cache_async
- swap_entry_free
-> swapcache_free_entries
-> drain_slots_cache_cpu
-> free_swap_slot
-> put_swap_folio (Already covered above)
-> __swap_entry_free / swap_free
-> free_swap_and_cache (Called by Unmap/Zap/MADV_FREE)
-> madvise_free_single_vma
-> unmap_page_range
-> shmem_undo_range
-> swap_free (Called by swapin path)
-> do_swap_page (Swapin path)
-> alloc_swapdev_block/free_all_swap_pages ()
-> try_to_unmap_one (Error handling, no shadow)
-> shmem_set_folio_swapin_error (Shadow just gone)
-> shmem_swapin_folio (Shmem's do_swap_page)
-> unuse_pte (Swapoff, which always use swapcache)
So now we only need to call clear_shadow_from_swap_cache in
free_swap_and_cache because all swapin/out will went through swap cache
now. Previously all above functions could invoke
clear_shadow_from_swap_cache in case a cache bypass swapin left a entry
with uncleared shadow.
Also make clear_shadow_from_swap_cache only clear one entry for
simplicity.
Test result of sequential swapin/out:
Before (us) After (us)
Swapout: 33624641 33648529
Swapin: 41614858 40667696 (+2.3%)
Swapout (THP): 7795530 7658664
Swapin (THP) : 41708471 40602278 (+2.7%)
