From 38b5faf4b178d5279b1fca5d7dadc68881342660 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Magenheimer Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2012 17:08:06 -0600 Subject: mm: frontswap: core swap subsystem hooks and headers This patch, 2of4, contains the changes to the core swap subsystem. This includes: (1) makes available core swap data structures (swap_lock, swap_list and swap_info) that are needed by frontswap.c but we don't need to expose them to the dozens of files that include swap.h so we create a new swapfile.h just to extern-ify these and modify their declarations to non-static (2) adds frontswap-related elements to swap_info_struct. Frontswap_map points to vzalloc'ed one-bit-per-swap-page metadata that indicates whether the swap page is in frontswap or in the device and frontswap_pages counts how many pages are in frontswap. (3) adds hooks in the swap subsystem and extends try_to_unuse so that frontswap_shrink can do a "partial swapoff". Note that a failed frontswap_map allocation is safe... failure is noted by lack of "FS" in the subsequent printk. --- [v14: rebase to 3.4-rc2] [v10: no change] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: mark some statics __read_mostly] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: add clarifying comments] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: no need to loop repeating try_to_unuse] [v9: error27@gmail.com: remove superfluous check for NULL] [v8: rebase to 3.0-rc4] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: change counter to atomic_t to avoid races] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: comment to clarify informational counters] [v7: rebase to 3.0-rc3] [v7: JBeulich@novell.com: add new swap struct elements only if config'd] [v6: rebase to 3.0-rc1] [v6: lliubbo@gmail.com: fix null pointer deref if vzalloc fails] [v6: konrad.wilk@oracl.com: various checks and code clarifications/comments] [v5: no change from v4] [v4: rebase to 2.6.39] Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer Reviewed-by: Kamezawa Hiroyuki Acked-by: Jan Beulich Acked-by: Seth Jennings Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Cc: Hugh Dickins Cc: Johannes Weiner Cc: Nitin Gupta Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Chris Mason Cc: Rik Riel Cc: Andrew Morton [v11: Rebased, fixed mm/swapfile.c context change] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk --- include/linux/swap.h | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'include/linux/swap.h') diff --git a/include/linux/swap.h b/include/linux/swap.h index b1fd5c7925fe..50a55e2d58ec 100644 --- a/include/linux/swap.h +++ b/include/linux/swap.h @@ -197,6 +197,10 @@ struct swap_info_struct { struct block_device *bdev; /* swap device or bdev of swap file */ struct file *swap_file; /* seldom referenced */ unsigned int old_block_size; /* seldom referenced */ +#ifdef CONFIG_FRONTSWAP + unsigned long *frontswap_map; /* frontswap in-use, one bit per page */ + atomic_t frontswap_pages; /* frontswap pages in-use counter */ +#endif }; struct swap_list_t { -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
