Briefly describe exported device stat attrs in zram documentation. We
will eventually get rid of per-stat sysfs nodes and, thus, clean up
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block-zram file, which is the only source
of information about device sysfs nodes.
Add `num_migrated' description, since there is no independent
`num_migrated' sysfs node (and no corresponding sysfs-block-zram entry),
it will be exported via zram<id>/mm_stat file.
At this point we can provide minimal description, because sysfs-block-zram
still contains detailed information.

Use bio generic_start_io_acct() and generic_end_io_acct() to account
device's block layer statistics. This will let users to monitor zram
activities using sysstat and similar packages/tools.
Apart from the usual per-stat sysfs attr, zram IO stats are now also
available in '/sys/block/zram<id>/stat' and '/proc/diskstats' files.
We will slowly get rid of per-stat sysfs files.

This patch introduces rework to zram stats. We have per-stat sysfs nodes,
and it makes things a bit hard to use in user space: it doesn't give an
immediate stats 'snapshot', it requires user space to use more syscalls -
open, read, close for every stat file, with appropriate error checks on
every step, etc.
First, zram now accounts block layer statistics, available in
/sys/block/zram<id>/stat and /proc/diskstats files. So some new stats are
available (see Documentation/block/stat.txt), besides, zram's activities
now can be monitored by sysstat's iostat or similar tools.
Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/stat
248 0 1984 0 251029 0 2008232 5120 0 5116 5116
Second, group currently exported on per-stat basis nodes into two
categories (files):
-- zram<id>/io_stat
accumulates device's IO stats, that are not accounted by block layer,
and contains:
failed_reads
failed_writes
invalid_io
notify_free
Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/io_stat
0 0 0 652572
-- zram<id>/mm_stat
accumulates zram mm stats and contains:
orig_data_size
compr_data_size
mem_used_total
mem_limit
mem_used_max
zero_pages
num_migrated
Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/mm_stat
434634752 270288572 279158784 0 579895296 15060 0
per-stat sysfs nodes are now considered to be deprecated and we plan to
remove them (and clean up some of the existing stat code) in two years (as
of now, there is no warning printed to syslog about deprecated stats being
used). User space is advised to use the above mentioned 3 files.
This patch (of 7):
Remove sysfs `num_migrated' attribute. We are moving away from per-stat
device attrs towards 3 stat files that will accumulate io and mm stats in
a format similar to block layer statistics in /sys/block/<dev>/stat. That
will be easier to use in user space, and reduce the number of syscalls
needed to read zram device statistics.
`num_migrated' will return back in zram<id>/mm_stat file.

We store handle on header of each allocated object so it increases the
size of each object by sizeof(unsigned long).
If zram stores 4096 bytes to zsmalloc(ie, bad compression), zsmalloc needs
4104B-class to add handle.
However, 4104B-class has 1-pages_per_zspage so wasted size by internal
fragment is 8192 - 4104, which is terrible.
So this patch records the handle in page->private on such huge object(ie,
pages_per_zspage == 1 && maxobj_per_zspage == 1) instead of header of each
object so we could use 4096B-class, not 4104B-class.

This patch provides core functions for migration of zsmalloc. Migraion
policy is simple as follows.
for each size class {
while {
src_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY
if (!src_page)
break;
dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_FULL
if (!dst_page)
dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY
if (!dst_page)
break;
migrate(from src_page, to dst_page);
}
}
For migration, we need to identify which objects in zspage are allocated
to migrate them out. We could know it by iterating of freed objects in a
zspage because first_page of zspage keeps free objects singly-linked list
but it's not efficient. Instead, this patch adds a tag(ie,
OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG) in header of each object(ie, handle) so we could check
whether the object is allocated easily.
This patch adds another status bit in handle to synchronize between user
access through zs_map_object and migration. During migration, we cannot
move objects user are using due to data coherency between old object and
new object.

Recently, we started to use zram heavily and some of issues
popped.
1) external fragmentation
I got a report from Juneho Choi that fork failed although there are plenty
of free pages in the system. His investigation revealed zram is one of
the culprit to make heavy fragmentation so there was no more contiguous
16K page for pgd to fork in the ARM.
2) non-movable pages
Other problem of zram now is that inherently, user want to use zram as
swap in small memory system so they use zRAM with CMA to use memory
efficiently. However, unfortunately, it doesn't work well because zRAM
cannot use CMA's movable pages unless it doesn't support compaction. I
got several reports about that OOM happened with zram although there are
lots of swap space and free space in CMA area.
3) internal fragmentation
zRAM has started support memory limitation feature to limit memory usage
and I sent a patchset(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/21/148) for VM to be
harmonized with zram-swap to stop anonymous page reclaim if zram consumed
memory up to the limit although there are free space on the swap. One
problem for that direction is zram has no way to know any hole in memory
space zsmalloc allocated by internal fragmentation so zram would regard
swap is full although there are free space in zsmalloc. For solving the
issue, zram want to trigger compaction of zsmalloc before it decides full
or not.
This patchset is first step to support above issues. For that, it adds
indirect layer between handle and object location and supports manual
compaction to solve 3th problem first of all.
After this patchset got merged, next step is to make VM aware of zsmalloc
compaction so that generic compaction will move zsmalloced-pages
automatically in runtime.
In my imaginary experiment(ie, high compress ratio data with heavy swap
in/out on 8G zram-swap), data is as follows,
Before =
zram allocated object : 60212066 bytes
zram total used: 140103680 bytes
ratio: 42.98 percent
MemFree: 840192 kB
Compaction
After =
frag ratio after compaction
zram allocated object : 60212066 bytes
zram total used: 76185600 bytes
ratio: 79.03 percent
MemFree: 901932 kB
Juneho reported below in his real platform with small aging.
So, I think the benefit would be bigger in real aging system
for a long time.
- frag_ratio increased 3% (ie, higher is better)
- memfree increased about 6MB
- In buddy info, Normal 2^3: 4, 2^2: 1: 2^1 increased, Highmem: 2^1 21 increased
frag ratio after swap fragment
used : 156677 kbytes
total: 166092 kbytes
frag_ratio : 94
meminfo before compaction
MemFree: 83724 kB
Node 0, zone Normal 13642 1364 57 10 61 17 9 5 4 0 0
Node 0, zone HighMem 425 29 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
num_migrated : 23630
compaction done
frag ratio after compaction
used : 156673 kbytes
total: 160564 kbytes
frag_ratio : 97

MemFree: 89060 kB

Node 0, zone HighMem 863 50 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
This patchset adds more logics(about 480 lines) in zsmalloc but when I
tested heavy swapin/out program, the regression for swapin/out speed is
marginal because most of overheads were caused by compress/decompress and
other MM reclaim stuff.
This patch (of 7):
Currently, handle of zsmalloc encodes object's location directly so it
makes support of migration hard.
This patch decouples handle and object via adding indirect layer. For
that, it allocates handle dynamically and returns it to user. The handle
is the address allocated by slab allocation so it's unique and we could
keep object's location in the memory space allocated for handle.
With it, we can change object's position without changing handle itself.

The original dax patchset split the ext2/4_file_operations because of the
two NULL splice_read/splice_write in the dax case.
In the vfs if splice_read/splice_write are NULL we then call
default_splice_read/write.
What we do here is make generic_file_splice_read aware of IS_DAX() so the
original ext2/4_file_operations can be used as is.
For write it appears that iter_file_splice_write is just fine. It uses
the regular f_op->write(file,..) or new_sync_write(file, ...).

This will allow FS that uses VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP (no page structs) to
get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN.
This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it to
page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page.
We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario above
we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file. An xfstest is
attached to this patchset that shows the failure and the fix. (A DAX
patch will follow)
This functionality is extra important for us, because upon dirtying of a
pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a remote cluster node.
We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because

audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP

DAX code (which this is for) would crash.
If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first
patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this
patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night.

Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we

A lot of filesystems use generic_file_mmap() and filemap_fault(),
f_op->mmap and vm_ops->fault aren't enough to identify filesystem.
