2024-09-02zswap: implement a second chance algorithm for dynamic zswap shrinkerNhat Pham1-9/+7
Patch series "improving dynamic zswap shrinker protection scheme", v3. When experimenting with the memory-pressure based (i.e "dynamic") zswap shrinker in production, we observed a sharp increase in the number of swapins, which led to performance regression. We were able to trace this regression to the following problems with the shrinker's warm pages protection scheme: 1. The protection decays way too rapidly, and the decaying is coupled with zswap stores, leading to anomalous patterns, in which a small batch of zswap stores effectively erase all the protection in place for the warmer pages in the zswap LRU. This observation has also been corroborated upstream by Takero Funaki (in [1]). 2. We inaccurately track the number of swapped in pages, missing the non-pivot pages that are part of the readahead window, while counting the pages that are found in the zswap pool. To alleviate these two issues, this patch series improve the dynamic zswap shrinker in the following manner: 1. Replace the protection size tracking scheme with a second chance algorithm. This new scheme removes the need for haphazard stats decaying, and automatically adjusts the pace of pages aging with memory pressure, and writeback rate with pool activities: slowing down when the pool is dominated with zswpouts, and speeding up when the pool is dominated with stale entries. 2. Fix the tracking of the number of swapins to take into account non-pivot pages in the readahead window. With these two changes in place, in a kernel-building benchmark without any cold data added, the number of swapins is reduced by 64.12%. This translate to a 10.32% reduction in build time. We also observe a 3% reduction in kernel CPU time. In another benchmark, with cold data added (to gauge the new algorithm's ability to offload cold data), the new second chance scheme outperforms the old protection scheme by around 0.7%, and actually written back around 21% more pages to backing swap device. So the new scheme is just as good, if not even better than the old scheme on this front as well. [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CAPpodddcGsK=0Xczfuk8usgZ47xeyf4ZjiofdT+ujiyz6V2pFQ@mail.gmail.com/ This patch (of 2): Current zswap shrinker's heuristics to prevent overshrinking is brittle and inaccurate, specifically in the way we decay the protection size (i.e making pages in the zswap LRU eligible for reclaim). We currently decay protection aggressively in zswap_lru_add() calls. This leads to the following unfortunate effect: when a new batch of pages enter zswap, the protection size rapidly decays to below 25% of the zswap LRU size, which is way too low. We have observed this effect in production, when experimenting with the zswap shrinker: the rate of shrinking shoots up massively right after a new batch of zswap stores. This is somewhat the opposite of what we want originally - when new pages enter zswap, we want to protect both these new pages AND the pages that are already protected in the zswap LRU. Replace existing heuristics with a second chance algorithm 1. When a new zswap entry is stored in the zswap pool, its referenced bit is set. 2. When the zswap shrinker encounters a zswap entry with the referenced bit set, give it a second chance - only flips the referenced bit and rotate it in the LRU. 3. If the shrinker encounters the entry again, this time with its referenced bit unset, then it can reclaim the entry. In this manner, the aging of the pages in the zswap LRUs are decoupled from zswap stores, and picks up the pace with increasing memory pressure (which is what we want). The second chance scheme allows us to modulate the writeback rate based on recent pool activities. Entries that recently entered the pool will be protected, so if the pool is dominated by such entries the writeback rate will reduce proportionally, protecting the workload's workingset.On the other hand, stale entries will be written back quickly, which increases the effective writeback rate. The referenced bit is added at the hole after the `length` field of struct zswap_entry, so there is no extra space overhead for this algorithm. We will still maintain the count of swapins, which is consumed and subtracted from the lru size in zswap_shrinker_count(), to further penalize past overshrinking that led to disk swapins. The idea is that had we considered this many more pages in the LRU active/protected, they would not have been written back and we would not have had to swapped them in. To test this new heuristics, I built the kernel under a cgroup with memory.max set to 2G, on a host with 36 cores: With the old shrinker: real: 263.89s user: 4318.11s sys: 673.29s swapins: 227300.5 With the second chance algorithm: real: 244.85s user: 4327.22s sys: 664.39s swapins: 94663 (average over 5 runs) We observe an 1.3% reduction in kernel CPU usage, and around 7.2% reduction in real time. Note that the number of swapped in pages dropped by 58%.

2024-07-10mm: zswap: fix zswap_never_enabled() for CONFIG_ZSWAP==NBarry Song1-1/+1
If CONFIG_ZSWAP is set to N, it means zswap cannot be enabled. zswap_never_enabled() should return true. The only effect of this issue is that with Barry's latest large folio swapin patches for zram ("mm: support mTHP swap-in for zRAM-like swapfile"), we will always fallback to order-0 swapin, even mistakenly when !CONFIG_ZSWAP. Basically this bug makes Barry's in progress patches not work at all. The API was created to inform the mm core that zswap has never been enabled, allowing the mm core to perform mTHP swap-in. This is a transitional solution until zswap supports mTHP. If zswap has been enabled, performing mTHP swap-in will result in corrupted data. You may find the answer in the mTHP swap-in series: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CAJD7tkZ4FQr6HZpduOdvmqgg_-whuZYE-Bz5O2t6yzw6Yg+v1A@mail.gmail.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240629232231.42394-1-21cnbao@gmail.com Fixes: 0300e17d67c3 ("mm: zswap: add zswap_never_enabled()") Signed-off-by: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@oppo.com> Reviewed-by: Chengming Zhou <chengming.zhou@linux.dev> Acked-by: Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> Acked-by: Chris Li <chrisl@kernel.org> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Nhat Pham <nphamcs@gmail.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2024-07-04mm: zswap: add zswap_never_enabled()Yosry Ahmed1-0/+6
Add zswap_never_enabled() to skip the xarray lookup in zswap_load() if zswap was never enabled on the system. It is implemented using static branches for efficiency, as enabling zswap should be a rare event. This could shave some cycles off zswap_load() when CONFIG_ZSWAP is used but zswap is never enabled. However, the real motivation behind this patch is two-fold: - Incoming large folio swapin work will need to fallback to order-0 folios if zswap was ever enabled, because any part of the folio could be in zswap, until proper handling of large folios with zswap is added. - A warning and recovery attempt will be added in a following change in case the above was not done incorrectly. Zswap will fail the read if the folio is large and it was ever enabled. Expose zswap_never_enabled() in the header for the swapin work to use it later.

2024-04-26mm: zswap: optimize zswap pool size trackingJohannes Weiner1-1/+1
Profiling the munmap() of a zswapped memory region shows 60% of the total cycles currently going into updating the zswap_pool_total_size. There are three consumers of this counter: - store, to enforce the globally configured pool limit - meminfo & debugfs, to report the size to the user - shrink, to determine the batch size for each cycle Instead of aggregating everytime an entry enters or exits the zswap pool, aggregate the value from the zpools on-demand: - Stores aggregate the counter anyway upon success. Aggregating to check the limit instead is the same amount of work. - Meminfo & debugfs might benefit somewhat from a pre-aggregated counter, but aren't exactly hotpaths. - Shrinking can aggregate once for every cycle instead of doing it for every freed entry. As the shrinker might work on tens or hundreds of objects per scan cycle, this is a large reduction in aggregations. The paths that benefit dramatically are swapin, swapoff, and unmaps. There could be millions of pages being processed until somebody asks for the pool size again. This eliminates the pool size updates from those paths entirely. Top profile entries for a 24G range munmap(), before: 38.54% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] zs_zpool_total_size 12.51% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] zpool_get_total_size 9.10% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] zswap_update_total_size 2.95% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] obj_cgroup_uncharge_zswap 2.88% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __slab_free 2.86% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] xas_store and after: 7.70% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __slab_free 7.16% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] obj_cgroup_uncharge_zswap 6.74% zswap-unmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] xas_store It was also briefly considered to move to a single atomic in zswap that is updated by the backends, since zswap only cares about the sum of all pools anyway. However, zram directly needs per-pool information out of zsmalloc. To keep the backend from having to update two atomics every time, I opted for the lazy aggregation instead for now.

2024-02-22mm/zswap: invalidate zswap entry when swap entry freeChengming Zhou1-2/+2
During testing I found there are some times the zswap_writeback_entry() return -ENOMEM, which is not we expected: bpftrace -e 'kr:zswap_writeback_entry {@[(int32)retval]=count()}' @[-12]: 1563 @[0]: 277221 The reason is that __read_swap_cache_async() return NULL because swapcache_prepare() failed. The reason is that we won't invalidate zswap entry when swap entry freed to the per-cpu pool, these zswap entries are still on the zswap tree and lru list. This patch moves the invalidation ahead to when swap entry freed to the per-cpu pool, since there is no any benefit to leave trashy zswap entry on the tree and lru list. With this patch: bpftrace -e 'kr:zswap_writeback_entry {@[(int32)retval]=count()}' @[0]: 259744 Note: large folio can't have zswap entry for now, so don't bother to add zswap entry invalidation in the large folio swap free path.

2024-02-22mm/zswap: split zswap rb-treeChengming Zhou1-2/+2
Each swapfile has one rb-tree to search the mapping of swp_entry_t to zswap_entry, that use a spinlock to protect, which can cause heavy lock contention if multiple tasks zswap_store/load concurrently. Optimize the scalability problem by splitting the zswap rb-tree into multiple rb-trees, each corresponds to SWAP_ADDRESS_SPACE_PAGES (64M), just like we did in the swap cache address_space splitting. Although this method can't solve the spinlock contention completely, it can mitigate much of that contention. Below is the results of kernel build in tmpfs with zswap shrinker enabled: linux-next zswap-lock-optimize real 1m9.181s 1m3.820s user 17m44.036s 17m40.100s sys 7m37.297s 4m54.622s So there are clearly improvements.

2024-02-22mm/zswap: make sure each swapfile always have zswap rb-treeChengming Zhou1-2/+5
Patch series "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree", v2. When testing the zswap performance by using kernel build -j32 in a tmpfs directory, I found the scalability of zswap rb-tree is not good, which is protected by the only spinlock. That would cause heavy lock contention if multiple tasks zswap_store/load concurrently. So a simple solution is to split the only one zswap rb-tree into multiple rb-trees, each corresponds to SWAP_ADDRESS_SPACE_PAGES (64M). This idea is from the commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"). Although this method can't solve the spinlock contention completely, it can mitigate much of that contention. Below is the results of kernel build in tmpfs with zswap shrinker enabled: linux-next zswap-lock-optimize real 1m9.181s 1m3.820s user 17m44.036s 17m40.100s sys 7m37.297s 4m54.622s So there are clearly improvements. And it's complementary with the ongoing zswap xarray conversion by Chris. Anyway, I think we can also merge this first, it's complementary IMHO. So I just refresh and resend this for further discussion. This patch (of 2): Not all zswap interfaces can handle the absence of the zswap rb-tree, actually only zswap_store() has handled it for now. To make things simple, we make sure each swapfile always have the zswap rb-tree prepared before being enabled and used. The preparation is unlikely to fail in practice, this patch just make it explicit.

2023-12-30zswap: memcontrol: implement zswap writeback disablingNhat Pham1-0/+7
During our experiment with zswap, we sometimes observe swap IOs due to occasional zswap store failures and writebacks-to-swap. These swapping IOs prevent many users who cannot tolerate swapping from adopting zswap to save memory and improve performance where possible. This patch adds the option to disable this behavior entirely: do not writeback to backing swapping device when a zswap store attempt fail, and do not write pages in the zswap pool back to the backing swap device (both when the pool is full, and when the new zswap shrinker is called). This new behavior can be opted-in/out on a per-cgroup basis via a new cgroup file. By default, writebacks to swap device is enabled, which is the previous behavior. Initially, writeback is enabled for the root cgroup, and a newly created cgroup will inherit the current setting of its parent. Note that this is subtly different from setting memory.swap.max to 0, as it still allows for pages to be stored in the zswap pool (which itself consumes swap space in its current form). This patch should be applied on top of the zswap shrinker series: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20231130194023.4102148-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/ as it also disables the zswap shrinker, a major source of zswap writebacks. For the most part, this feature is motivated by internal parties who have already established their opinions regarding swapping - the workloads that are highly sensitive to IO, and especially those who are using servers with really slow disk performance (for instance, massive but slow HDDs). For these folks, it's impossible to convince them to even entertain zswap if swapping also comes as a packaged deal. Writeback disabling is quite a useful feature in these situations - on a mixed workloads deployment, they can disable writeback for the more IO-sensitive workloads, and enable writeback for other background workloads. For instance, on a server with HDD, I allocate memories and populate them with random values (so that zswap store will always fail), and specify memory.high low enough to trigger reclaim. The time it takes to allocate the memories and just read through it a couple of times (doing silly things like computing the values' average etc.): zswap.writeback disabled: real 0m30.537s user 0m23.687s sys 0m6.637s 0 pages swapped in 0 pages swapped out zswap.writeback enabled: real 0m45.061s user 0m24.310s sys 0m8.892s 712686 pages swapped in 461093 pages swapped out (the last two lines are from vmstat -s).

This patch (of 13): Move the folio->page conversion into the callers that actually want that. Most of the callers are happier with the folio anyway.

2023-12-12zswap: shrink zswap pool based on memory pressureNhat Pham1-2/+23
Currently, we only shrink the zswap pool when the user-defined limit is hit. This means that if we set the limit too high, cold data that are unlikely to be used again will reside in the pool, wasting precious memory. It is hard to predict how much zswap space will be needed ahead of time, as this depends on the workload (specifically, on factors such as memory access patterns and compressibility of the memory pages). This patch implements a memcg- and NUMA-aware shrinker for zswap, that is initiated when there is memory pressure. The shrinker does not have any parameter that must be tuned by the user, and can be opted in or out on a per-memcg basis. Furthermore, to make it more robust for many workloads and prevent overshrinking (i.e evicting warm pages that might be refaulted into memory), we build in the following heuristics: * Estimate the number of warm pages residing in zswap, and attempt to protect this region of the zswap LRU. * Scale the number of freeable objects by an estimate of the memory saving factor. The better zswap compresses the data, the fewer pages we will evict to swap (as we will otherwise incur IO for relatively small memory saving). * During reclaim, if the shrinker encounters a page that is also being brought into memory, the shrinker will cautiously terminate its shrinking action, as this is a sign that it is touching the warmer region of the zswap LRU. As a proof of concept, we ran the following synthetic benchmark: build the linux kernel in a memory-limited cgroup, and allocate some cold data in tmpfs to see if the shrinker could write them out and improved the overall performance. Depending on the amount of cold data generated, we observe from 14% to 35% reduction in kernel CPU time used in the kernel builds.

2023-12-12zswap: make shrinking memcg-awareDomenico Cerasuolo1-0/+2
Currently, we only have a single global LRU for zswap. This makes it impossible to perform worload-specific shrinking - an memcg cannot determine which pages in the pool it owns, and often ends up writing pages from other memcgs. This issue has been previously observed in practice and mitigated by simply disabling memcg-initiated shrinking: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230530232435.3097106-1-nphamcs@gmail.com/T/#u This patch fully resolves the issue by replacing the global zswap LRU with memcg- and NUMA-specific LRUs, and modify the reclaim logic: a) When a store attempt hits an memcg limit, it now triggers a synchronous reclaim attempt that, if successful, allows the new hotter page to be accepted by zswap. b) If the store attempt instead hits the global zswap limit, it will trigger an asynchronous reclaim attempt, in which an memcg is selected for reclaim in a round-robin-like fashion.

2023-08-21zswap: make zswap_store() take a folioMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)1-2/+2
Patch series "Followup folio conversions for zswap". With frontswap killed, it's worth converting the zswap_load() and zswap_store() functions to take a folio instead of a page pointer. They aren't converted to support large folios, but there are a lot of unnecessary calls to compound_head() that are removed by these patches. This patch (of 4): Only convert a few easy parts of this function to use the folio passed in; convert back to struct page for the majority of it. This does remove a few hidden calls to compound_head().

The only user of frontswap is zswap, and has been for a long time. Have swap call into zswap directly and remove the indirection.
