Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] mm: swap: filter swap allocation by memcg tier mask
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2026 09:09:50 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260217000950.4015880-5-youngjun.park@lge.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260217000950.4015880-1-youngjun.park@lge.com>

Apply memcg tier effective mask during swap slot allocation to
enforce per-cgroup swap tier restrictions.

In the fast path, check the percpu cached swap_info's tier_mask
against the folio's effective mask. If it does not match, fall
through to the slow path. In the slow path, skip swap devices
whose tier_mask is not covered by the folio's effective mask.

This works correctly when there is only one non-rotational
device in the system and no devices share the same priority.
However, there are known limitations:

 - When multiple non-rotational devices exist, percpu swap
   caches from different memcg contexts may reference
   mismatched tiers, causing unnecessary fast path misses.

 - When multiple non-rotational devices are assigned to
   different tiers and same-priority devices exist among
   them, cluster-based rotation may not work correctly.

These edge cases do not affect the primary use case of
directing swap traffic per cgroup. Further optimization is
planned for future work.
