<title>zram: always expose rw_page</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently zram will adjust its fops to a version which does not contain
rw_page when a backing device has been assigned.  This is done to prevent
upper layers from assuming a synchronous operation when a page may have
been written back.  This forces every operation through bio which has
overhead associated with bio_alloc/frees.

The code can be simplified to always expose an rw_page method and only in
the rare event that a page is written back we instead will return
-EOPNOTSUPP forcing the upper layer to fallback to bio.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
   linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
   negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).

 - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
   tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
   right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
   contention.

   Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
   could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.

   Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
   at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
   timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.

 - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
   clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
   to the single bit level.

   KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.

 - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
   memory into THPs.

 - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
   support file/shmem-backed pages.

 - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen

 - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov

 - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
   memory-failure

 - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
   page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

 - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced
   memory consumption.

 - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song.

 - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner.

 - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions

 - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :(

 - migration enhancements from Peter Xu

 - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying

 - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory
   tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM
   drivers, etc.

 - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn.

 - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand.

 - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging
   activity.

 - THP &amp; KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng.

 - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox.

 - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov.

 - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia.

 - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups.

 - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song.

 - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

<title>zram: do not waste zram_table_entry flags bits</title>

zram_table_entry::flags stores object size in the lower bits and zram
pageflags in the upper bits.  However, for some reason, we use 24 lower
bits, while maximum zram object size is PAGE_SIZE, which requires
PAGE_SHIFT bits (up to 16 on arm64).  This wastes 24 - PAGE_SHIFT bits
that we can use for additional zram pageflags instead.

Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to alert us should we run out of bits in
zram_table_entry::flags.

It doesn't make sense for us to retry to compress an uncompressible page
(comp_len == PAGE_SIZE) in zsmalloc slowpath, because we will be storing
it uncompressed anyway.  We can avoid wasting time on another compression
attempt.  It is enough to take lock (zcomp_stream_get) and execute the
code below.

We do all reset operations under write lock, so we don't need to save
-&gt;disksize and -&gt;comp to stack variables.  Another thing is that -&gt;comp is
freed during zram reset, but comp pointer is not NULL-ed, so zram keeps
the freed pointer value.

<title>Revert "zram: remove double compression logic"</title>
<updated>2022-08-20T22:17:44Z</updated>

<name>Jiri Slaby</name>
<email>jslaby@suse.cz</email>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.zx2c4.com/linux-dev/commit/?id=37887783b3fef877bf34b8992c9199864da4afcb'/>
<id>urn:sha1:37887783b3fef877bf34b8992c9199864da4afcb</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit e7be8d1dd983156b ("zram: remove double compression
logic") as it causes zram failures.  It does not revert cleanly, PTR_ERR
handling was introduced in the meantime.  This is handled by appropriate
IS_ERR.

When under memory pressure, zs_malloc() can fail.  Before the above
commit, the allocation was retried with direct reclaim enabled (GFP_NOIO).
After the commit, it is not -- only __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is tried.

So when the failure occurs under memory pressure, the overlaying
filesystem such as ext2 (mounted by ext4 module in this case) can emit
failures, making the (file)system unusable:
  EXT4-fs warning (device zram0): ext4_end_bio:343: I/O error 10 writing to inode 16386 starting block 159744)
  Buffer I/O error on device zram0, logical block 159744

With direct reclaim, memory is really reclaimed and allocation succeeds,
eventually.  In the worst case, the oom killer is invoked, which is proper
outcome if user sets up zram too large (in comparison to available RAM).

This very diff doesn't apply to 5.19 (stable) cleanly (see PTR_ERR note
above). Use revert of e7be8d1dd983 directly.
