Subject: swap: remove remnants of polling from read_swap_cache_async
Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2023 14:19:52 -0700
Patch series "Per-VMA lock support for swap and userfaults", v7.
When per-VMA locks were introduced in [1] several types of page faults
would still fall back to mmap_lock to keep the patchset simple. Among
them are swap and userfault pages. The main reason for skipping those
cases was the fact that mmap_lock could be dropped while handling these
faults and that required additional logic to be implemented. Implement
the mechanism to allow per-VMA locks to be dropped for these cases.
First, change handle_mm_fault to drop per-VMA locks when returning
VM_FAULT_RETRY or VM_FAULT_COMPLETED to be consistent with the way
mmap_lock is handled. Then change folio_lock_or_retry to accept vm_fault
and return vm_fault_t which simplifies later patches. Finally allow swap
and uffd page faults to be handled under per-VMA locks by dropping per-VMA
and retrying, the same way it's done under mmap_lock. Naturally, once VMA
lock is dropped that VMA should be assumed unstable and can't be used.
This patch (of 6):
Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read
latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2]
removed polling support. Therefore it seems safe to remove do_poll
parameter in read_swap_cache_async and always call swap_readpage with
synchronous=false waiting for IO completion in folio_lock_or_retry.
[1] commit 23955622ff8d ("swap: add block io poll in swapin path")
[2] commit 9650b453a3d4 ("block: ignore RWF_HIPRI hint for sync dio")
