[PATCH] mm: swapfile: fix SSD detection with swapfile on btrfs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We've been noticing a trend of significant lock contention in the swap
subsystem as core counts have been increasing in our fleet. It turns
out that our swapfiles on btrfs on flash were in fact using the old
swap code for rotational storage.

This turns out to be a detection issue in the swapon sequence: btrfs
sets si->bdev during swap activation, which currently happens *after*
swapon's SSD detection and cluster setup. Thus, none of the SSD
optimizations and cluster lock splitting are enabled for btrfs swap.

Rearrange the swapon sequence so that filesystem activation happens
*before* determining swap behavior based on the backing device.

Afterwards, the nonrotational drive is detected correctly:

- Adding 2097148k swap on /mnt/swapfile.  Priority:-3 extents:1 across:2097148k
+ Adding 2097148k swap on /mnt/swapfile.  Priority:-3 extents:1 across:2097148k SS

Changes since RFC:
o walk badpages[] instead of [0, maxpages] for faster swapon (thanks Ying!)
