zsmalloc: page migration support This patch introduces run-time migration feature for zspage. For migration, VM uses page.lru field so it would be better to not use page.next field which is unified with page.lru for own purpose. For that, firstly, we can get first object offset of the page via runtime calculation instead of using page.index so we can use page.index as link for page chaining instead of page.next. In case of huge object, it stores handle to page.index instead of next link of page chaining because huge object doesn't need to next link for page chaining. So get_next_page need to identify huge object to return NULL. For it, this patch uses PG_owner_priv_1 flag of the page flag. For migration, it supports three functions * zs_page_isolate It isolates a zspage which includes a subpage VM want to migrate from class so anyone cannot allocate new object from the zspage. We could try to isolate a zspage by the number of subpage so subsequent isolation trial of other subpage of the zpsage shouldn't fail. For that, we introduce zspage.isolated count. With that, zs_page_isolate can know whether zspage is already isolated or not for migration so if it is isolated for migration, subsequent isolation trial can be successful without trying further isolation. * zs_page_migrate First of all, it holds write-side zspage->lock to prevent migrate other subpage in zspage. Then, lock all objects in the page VM want to migrate. The reason we should lock all objects in the page is due to race between zs_map_object and zs_page_migrate. zs_map_object zs_page_migrate pin_tag(handle) obj = handle_to_obj(handle) obj_to_location(obj, &page, &obj_idx); write_lock(&zspage->lock) if (!trypin_tag(handle)) goto unpin_object zspage = get_zspage(page); read_lock(&zspage->lock); If zs_page_migrate doesn't do trypin_tag, zs_map_object's page can be stale by migration so it goes crash. If it locks all of objects successfully, it copies content from old page to new one, finally, create new zspage chain with new page. And if it's last isolated subpage in the zspage, put the zspage back to class. * zs_page_putback It returns isolated zspage to right fullness_group list if it fails to migrate a page. If it find a zspage is ZS_EMPTY, it queues zspage freeing to workqueue. See below about async zspage freeing. This patch introduces asynchronous zspage free. The reason to need it is we need page_lock to clear PG_movable but unfortunately, zs_free path should be atomic so the apporach is try to grab page_lock. If it got page_lock of all of pages successfully, it can free zspage immediately. Otherwise, it queues free request and free zspage via workqueue in process context. If zs_free finds the zspage is isolated when it try to free zspage, it delays the freeing until zs_page_putback finds it so it will free free the zspage finally. In this patch, we expand fullness_list from ZS_EMPTY to ZS_FULL. First of all, it will use ZS_EMPTY list for delay freeing. And with adding ZS_FULL list, it makes to identify whether zspage is isolated or not via list_empty(&zspage->list) test.
