This mostly just removes calls to compound_head() although nr_reclaimed
should be incremented by the number of pages, not just 1.

Now we are sure there is at least one page on page_list, so it is safe to
get the nid of it. This means it is not necessary to use NUMA_NO_NODE as
an indicator for the beginning of iteration or a page on different node.

speculative reference
If the page has buffers, shrink_page_list will try to free the buffer
mappings associated with the page and try to free the page as well. In
the rare race with speculative reference, the page will be freed shortly
by speculative reference. But nr_reclaimed is not incremented correctly
when we come across the THP. We need to account all the base pages in

swap_writepage() is given one page at a time, but may be called repeatedly
in succession.
For block-device swapspace, the blk_plug functionality allows the multiple
pages to be combined together at lower layers. That cannot be used for
SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is only active when
CONFIG_BLOCK=y. Consequently all swap reads over NFS are single page
reads.
With this patch we pass a pointer-to-pointer via the wbc. swap_writepage
can store state between calls - much like the pointer passed explicitly to
swap_readpage. After calling swap_writepage() some number of times, the
state will be passed to swap_write_unplug() which can submit the combined
request.

If swap-out is using filesystem operations (SWP_FS_OPS), then it is not
safe to enter the FS for reclaim. So only down-grade the requirement for
swap pages to __GFP_IO after checking that SWP_FS_OPS are not being used.
This makes the calculation of "may_enter_fs" slightly more complex, so
move it into a separate function. with that done, there is little value
in maintaining the bool variable any more. So replace the may_enter_fs
variable with a may_enter_fs() function. This removes any risk for the
variable becoming out-of-date.

Patch series "MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support".
Assorted improvements for swap-via-filesystem.
This is a resend of these patches, rebased on current HEAD. The only
substantial changes is that swap_dirty_folio has replaced
swap_set_page_dirty.
Currently swap-via-fs (SWP_FS_OPS) doesn't work for any filesystem. It
has previously worked for NFS but that broke a few releases back. This
series changes to use a new ->swap_rw rather than ->readpage and
->direct_IO. It also makes other improvements.
There is a companion series already in linux-next which fixes various
issues with NFS. Once both series land, a final patch is needed which
changes NFS over to use ->swap_rw.
This patch (of 10):
Many functions declared in include/linux/swap.h are only used within mm/
Create a new "mm/swap.h" and move some of these declarations there.
Remove the redundant 'extern' from the function declarations.

With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are usually
different.
In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc,
some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this
patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page
placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold
dynamically.
In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow
memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be
put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory
will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node).
That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is
regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in
the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the
existing NUMA balancing mechanism.
The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the
free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This
is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes
the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize
page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows.
It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is
larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's
unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always
no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot
pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory
node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows,
a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages
from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will
create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger
the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory
node will be demoted to the slow memory node.
b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than
wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach
such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote
hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free
pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake
up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and
free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we
might have a chance of doing so.
The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node.
If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure
may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload
is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered.
The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory
pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop
earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the
normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented.
A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the
high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor.
In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets,
the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page
placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the
sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward
compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these
functionality individually.
The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The
definition of the flags is,
- 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED
- 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL
- 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent
Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can
improve up to 95.9%.
Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

__isolate_lru_page_prepare() conflates two unrelated functions, with the
flags to one disjoint from the flags to the other; and hides some of the
important checks outside of isolate_migratepages_block(), where the
sequence is better to be visible. It comes from the days of lumpy
reclaim, before compaction, when the combination made more sense.
Move what's needed by mm/compaction.c isolate_migratepages_block() inline
there, and what's needed by mm/vmscan.c isolate_lru_pages() inline there.
Shorten "isolate_mode" to "mode", so the sequence of conditions is easier
to read. Declare a "mapping" variable, to save one call to page_mapping()
(but not another: calling again after page is locked is necessary).
Simplify isolate_lru_pages() with a "move_to" list pointer.

PF_SWAPWRITE has been redundant since v3.2 commit ee72886d8ed5 ("mm:
vmscan: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim").
Coincidentally, NeilBrown's current patch "remove inode_congested()"
deletes may_write_to_inode(), which appeared to be the one function which
took notice of PF_SWAPWRITE. But if you study the old logic, and the
conditions under which may_write_to_inode() was called, you discover that
flag and function have been pointless for a decade.

These functions are no longer useful as no BDIs report congestions any
more.
Removing the test on bdi_write_contested() in current_may_throttle()
could cause a small change in behaviour, but only when PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE
is set.
So replace the calls by 'false' and simplify the code - and remove the
functions.

inode_congested() reports if the backing-device for the inode is
congested. No bdi reports congestion any more, so this always returns
'false'.
So remove inode_congested() and related functions, and remove the call
sites, assuming that inode_congested() always returns 'false'.

The statistics we gather should count the number of pages, not the
number of folios. The logic in this function is somewhat convoluted,
but even if we split the folio, I think the accounting is now correct.

We have to allocate memory in order to split a file-backed folio, so
it's not a good idea to split them in the memory freeing path. It also
doesn't work for XFS because pages have an extra reference count from
page_has_private() and split_huge_page() expects that reference to have
already been removed. Unfortunately, we still have to split shmem THPs
because we can't handle swapping out an entire THP yet.

This is a convenience function; split_huge_page_to_list() can take
any page in a folio (and does so on purpose because that page will
be the one which keeps the refcount). But it's convenient for the
callers to pass the folio instead of the first page in the folio.

4.8 commit 7751b2da6be0 ("vmscan: split file huge pages before paging
them out") inserted a split_huge_page_to_list() into shrink_page_list()
without considering the mlock case: no problem if the page has already
been marked as Mlocked (the !page_evictable check much higher up will
have skipped all this), but it has always been the case that races or
omissions in setting Mlocked can rely on page reclaim to detect this
and correct it before actually reclaiming - and that remains so, but
what a shame if a hugepage is needlessly split before discovering it.
It is surprising that page_check_references() returns PAGEREF_RECLAIM
when VM_LOCKED, but there was a good reason for that: try_to_unmap_one()
is where the condition is detected and corrected; and until now it could
not be done in page_referenced_one(), because that does not always have
the page locked. Now that mlock's requirement for page lock has gone,
copy try_to_unmap_one()'s mlock restoration into page_referenced_one(),
and let page_check_references() return PAGEREF_ACTIVATE in this case.
But page_referenced_one() may find a pte mapping one part of a hugepage:
what hold should a pte mapped in a VM_LOCKED area exert over the entire
huge page? That's debatable. The approach taken here is to treat that
pte mapping in page_referenced_one() as if not VM_LOCKED, and if no
VM_LOCKED pmd mapping is found later in the walk, and lack of reference
permits, then PAGEREF_RECLAIM take it to attempted splitting as before.
