This patch enables the use of Intel IAA hardware compression acceleration
to reclaim a batch of folios in shrink_folio_list(). This results in
reclaim throughput and workload/sys performance improvements.
The earlier patches on compress batching deployed multiple IAA compress
engines for compressing up to SWAP_CRYPTO_SUB_BATCH_SIZE pages within a
large folio that is being stored in zswap_store(). This patch further
propagates the efficiency improvements demonstrated with IAA "batching
within folios", to vmscan "batching of folios" which will also use
batching within folios using the extensible architecture of
the __zswap_store_batch_core() procedure added earlier, that accepts
an array of folios.
A plug mechanism is introduced in swap_writepage() to aggregate a batch of
up to vm.compress-batchsize ([1, 32]) folios before processing the plug.
The plug will be processed if any of the following is true:
1) The plug has vm.compress-batchsize folios. If the system has Intel IAA,
"sysctl vm.compress-batchsize" can be configured to be in [1, 32]. On
systems without IAA, or if CONFIG_ZSWAP_STORE_BATCHING_ENABLED is not
set, "sysctl vm.compress-batchsize" can only be 1.
2) A folio of a different swap type or folio_nid as the current folios in
the plug, needs to be added to the plug.
3) A pmd-mappable folio needs to be swapped out. In this case, the
existing folios in the plug are processed. The pmd-mappable folio is
swapped out (zswap_store() will batch compress
SWAP_CRYPTO_SUB_BATCH_SIZE pages in the pmd-mappable folio if system
has IAA) in a batch of its own.
From zswap's perspective, it now receives a hybrid batch of any-order
(non-pmd-mappable) folios when the plug is processed via
zswap_store_batch() that calls __zswap_store_batch_core(). This makes sure
that the zswap compress batching pipeline occupancy and reclaim throughput
are maximized.
The shrink_folio_list() interface with swap_writepage() is modified to
work with the plug mechanism. When shrink_folio_list() calls pageout(), it
needs to handle new return codes from pageout(), namely, PAGE_BATCHED and
PAGE_BATCH_SUCCESS:
PAGE_BATCHED:
The page is not yet swapped out, so we need to wait for the "imc_plug"
batch to be processed, before running the post-pageout computes in
shrink_folio_list().
PAGE_BATCH_SUCCESS:
When the "imc_plug" is processed in swap_writepage(), a newly added
status "AOP_PAGE_BATCH_SUCCESS" is returned to pageout(), which in turn
returns PAGE_BATCH_SUCCESS to shrink_folio_list().
Upon receiving PAGE_BATCH_SUCCESS from pageout(), shrink_folio_list() must
now serialize and run the post-pageout computes for all the folios in
"imc_plug". To summarize this approach, this patch introduces a plug in
reclaim that aggregates a batch of folios, parallelizes the zswap store of
the folios using IAA hardware acceleration, then returns to run the
serialized flow after the "batch pageout".
The patch attempts to do this with some minimal/necessary amount of code
duplication and by addition of an iteration through the "imc_plug" folios
in shrink_folio_list(). I have validated this extensively, and not seen any
issues. I would appreciate suggestions to improve upon this approach.
Submitting this functionality as a single distinct patch in the RFC
patch-series because all the changes in this specific patch are for
shrink_folio_list() batching; they wouldn't make sense without the
functionality in this patch. Besides the functionality itself, I would also
appreciate comments on whether the patch needs to be organized
differently.
Thanks Ying Huang for suggesting ideas on simplifying the vmscan interface
to the swap_writepage() plug mechanism.

These are the reasons I think you should use that (please correct me if I miss-read your patch): 1. Your range is [1,32] -> so no negative values 2. You are using the value to compare with an unsinged int (simc->nr_folios) in your `struct swap_in_memory_cache_cb`. So instead of going from int to uint, you should just do uint all around. No? 3. Using proc_douintvec_minmax will automatically error out on negative input without event considering your range, so there is less code executed at the end. > + .extra1 = SYSCTL_ONE, > + .extra2 = (void *)&compress_batchsize_max, > + }, > { > .procname = "dirtytime_expire_seconds", > .data = &dirtytime_expire_interval, > diff --git a/mm/page_io.c b/mm/page_io.c > index a28d28b6b3ce..065db25309b8 100644 > --- a/mm/page_io.c > +++ b/mm/page_io.c > @@ -226,6 +226,131 @@ static void swap_zeromap_folio_clear(struct folio *folio) > } > } ...

Thanks for your code review comments! Sure, what you suggest makes sense. Based on Yosry's suggestions, I plan to separate out the batching reclaim shrink_folio_list() changes into a separate series, and focus on just the zswap modifications to support large folio compression batching in the initial series. I will make sure to incorporate your comments in the shrink_folio_list() batching reclaim series.
