From: Kairui Song <kasong@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The flag SWP_SCANNING was used as an indicator of whether a device
is being scanned for allocation, and prevents swapoff. Combined with
SWP_WRITEOK, they work as a set of barriers for a clean swapoff:
1. Swapoff clears SWP_WRITEOK, allocation requests will see
~SWP_WRITEOK and abort as it's serialized by si->lock.
2. Swapoff unuses all allocated entries.
3. Swapoff waits for SWP_SCANNING flag to be cleared, so ongoing
allocations will stop, preventing UAF.
4. Now swapoff can free everything safely.
This will make the allocation path have a hard dependency on
si->lock. Allocation always have to acquire si->lock first for
setting SWP_SCANNING and checking SWP_WRITEOK.
This commit removes this flag, and just uses the existing per-CPU
refcount instead to prevent UAF in step 3, which serves well for
such usage without dependency on si->lock, and scales very well too.
Just hold a reference during the whole scan and allocation process.
Swapoff will kill and wait for the counter.
And for preventing any allocation from happening after step 1 so the
unuse in step 2 can ensure all slots are free, swapoff will acquire
the ci->lock of each cluster one by one to ensure all allocations
see ~SWP_WRITEOK and abort.
This way these dependences on si->lock are gone. And worth noting we
can't kill the refcount as the first step for swapoff as the unuse
process have to acquire the refcount.
