To give credit where it is due, this is based on Chris Li's idea and a prototype of using cluster size atomic arrays to implement swap cache. This phase I contains 15 patches, introduces the swap table infrastructure and uses it as the swap cache backend. By doing so, we have up to ~5-20% performance gain in throughput, RPS or build time for benchmark and workload tests. The speed up is due to less contention on the swap cache access and shallower swap cache lookup path. The cluster size is much finer-grained than the 64M address space split, which is removed in this phase I. It also unifies and cleans up the swap code base. Each swap cluster will dynamically allocate the swap table, which is an atomic array to cover every swap slot in the cluster. It replaces the swap cache backed by XArray. In phase I, the static allocated swap_map still co-exists with the swap table. The memory usage is about the same as the original on average. A few exception test cases show about 1% higher in memory usage. In the following phases of the series, swap_map will merge into the swap table without additional memory allocation. It will result in net memory reduction compared to the original swap cache. Testing has shown that phase I has a significant performance improvement from 8c/1G ARM machine to 48c96t/128G x86_64 servers in many practical workloads. The full picture with a summary can be found at [2]. An older bigger series of 28 patches is posted at [3]. vm-scability test: ================== Test with: usemem --init-time -O -y -x -n 31 1G (4G memcg, PMEM as swap) Before: After: System time: 219.12s 158.16s (-27.82%) Sum Throughput: 4767.13 MB/s 6128.59 MB/s (+28.55%) Single process Throughput: 150.21 MB/s 196.52 MB/s (+30.83%) Free latency: 175047.58 us 131411.87 us (-24.92%) usemem --init-time -O -y -x -n 32 1536M (16G memory, global pressure, PMEM as swap) Before: After: System time: 356.16s 284.68s (-20.06%) Sum Throughput: 4648.35 MB/s 5453.52 MB/s (+17.32%) Single process Throughput: 141.63 MB/s 168.35 MB/s (+18.86%) Free latency: 499907.71 us 484977.03 us (-2.99%) This shows an improvement of more than 20% improvement in most readings. Build kernel test: ================== The following result matrix is from building kernel with defconfig on tmpfs with ZSWAP / ZRAM, using different memory pressure and setups. Measuring sys and real time in seconds, less is better (user time is almost identical as expected): -j / Mem | Sys before / after | Real before / after Using 16G ZRAM with memcg limit: 6 / 192M | 9686 / 9472 -2.21% | 2130 / 2096 -1.59% 12 / 256M | 6610 / 6451 -2.41% | 827 / 812 -1.81% 24 / 384M | 5938 / 5701 -3.37% | 414 / 405 -2.17% 48 / 768M | 4696 / 4409 -6.11% | 188 / 182 -3.19% With 64k folio: 24 / 512M | 4222 / 4162 -1.42% | 326 / 321 -1.53% 48 / 1G | 3688 / 3622 -1.79% | 151 / 149 -1.32% With ZSWAP with 3G memcg (using higher limit due to kmem account): 48 / 3G | 603 / 581 -3.65% | 81 / 80 -1.23% Testing extremely high global memory and schedule pressure: Using ZSWAP with 32G NVMEs in a 48c VM that has 4G memory, no memcg limit, system components take up about 1.5G already, using make -j48 to build defconfig: Before: sys time: 2069.53s real time: 135.76s After: sys time: 2021.13s (-2.34%) real time: 134.23s (-1.12%) On another 48c 4G memory VM, using 16G ZRAM as swap, testing make -j48 with same config: Before: sys time: 1756.96s real time: 111.01s After: sys time: 1715.90s (-2.34%) real time: 109.51s (-1.35%) All cases are more or less faster, and no regression even under extremely heavy global memory pressure. Redis / Valkey bench: ===================== The test machine is a ARM64 VM with 1536M memory 12 cores, Redis is set to use 2500M memory, and ZRAM swap size is set to 5G: Testing with: redis-benchmark -r 2000000 -n 2000000 -d 1024 -c 12 -P 32 -t get no BGSAVE with BGSAVE Before: 487576.06 RPS 280016.02 RPS After: 487541.76 RPS (-0.01%) 300155.32 RPS (+7.19%) Testing with: redis-benchmark -r 2500000 -n 2500000 -d 1024 -c 12 -P 32 -t get no BGSAVE with BGSAVE Before: 466789.59 RPS 281213.92 RPS After: 466402.89 RPS (-0.08%) 298411.84 RPS (+6.12%) With BGSAVE enabled, most Redis memory will have a swap count > 1 so swap cache is heavily in use. We can see a about 6% performance gain. No BGSAVE is very slightly slower (<0.1%) due to the higher memory pressure of the co-existence of swap_map and swap table. This will be optimzed into a net gain and up to 20% gain in BGSAVE case in the following phases. HDD swap is also ~40% faster with usemem because we removed an old contention workaround.

[ Baolin Wang ] - Fix build error with !SWAP and !SHMEM config. [ Klara Modin, SeongJae Park ] - Fix a few typo and blank lines [ David Hildenbrand ] - Minor code style change [ Chris Li ]. - Fix documentation warning from bot. [ Chris Li ] Link to V2: - https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20250905191357.78298-1-ryncsn@gmail.com/ V2 main updates: - Added some more non-debug atomic sanity checks, which very slightly slow down the performance by a bit compared to V1 for some tests. But let's be more cautious in phase I, in case there is any hidden bug in swap, since it has a rather complex historical baggage. And phase I is a critical step for follow up swap table series [ Chris Li ]. These sanity checks can be removed very easily later or wrapped with a DEBUG_VM_SWAP as more swap table features land in. - The code is basically same as V1, except one missing shmem statistic fixed thanks to [ Baolin Wang ] - Added a lot of kernel docs, and more constify of sturct folio arguments, and better function names, thanks to [ David Hildenbrand ] and [ Chris Li ]. - Removed the arguable readahead change thanks to [ Chris Li ]. - Add an IRQ sanity check, have been testing with this check on for a long time but forgot to include it in V1. Other updates: - One VM_WARN_ON_ONCE to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_FOLIO and minor adjust [ Barry Song ] - Split out 4 patches from the old patches. The end result is still the same but should be easier to review [ Chris Li, David Hildenbrand ] - Avoid some trivial blank line or variable name changes and comment fix [ Baoquan He, Chris Li, David Hildenbrand ] - Added HDD test benchmark result [ Chris Li ] - Rename and simplified folio_matches_swap_entry a little bit.
