4f7a7beaee zram: remove BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO with writeback feature
If zram supports writeback feature, it's no longer a
BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO device beause zram does asynchronous IO operations
for incompressible pages.

Do not pretend to be synchronous IO device.  It makes the system very
sluggish due to waiting for IO completion from upper layers.

Furthermore, it causes a user-after-free problem because swap thinks the
opearion is done when the IO functions returns so it can free the page
(e.g., lock_page_or_retry and goto out_release in do_swap_page) but in
fact, IO is asynchronous so the driver could access a just freed page
afterward.

This patch fixes the problem.

ddcf35d397 block: Add and use op_stat_group() for indexing disk_stat fields.
Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
should et updated.

In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
the stat group.

Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
statistics and as such are not indexed via this function.  It's now
indexed by op_is_write().

tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.  Updated to pass around REQ_OP.

3f289dcb4b block: make bdev_ops->rw_page() take a REQ_OP instead of bool
c11f0c0b5b ("block/mm: make bdev_ops->rw_page() take a bool for
read/write") replaced @op with boolean @is_write, which limited the
amount of information going into ->rw_page() and more importantly
page_endio(), which removed the need to expose block internals to mm.

Unfortunately, we want to track discards separately and @is_write
isn't enough information.  This patch updates bdev_ops->rw_page() to
take REQ_OP instead but leaves page_endio() to take bool @is_write.
This allows the block part of operations to have enough information
while not leaking it to mm.

fad953ce0b treewide: Use array_size() in vzalloc()
The vzalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b)

with:
        vzalloc(array_size(a, b))

as well as handling cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b * c)

with:

        vzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        vzalloc(4 * 1024)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

c0265342bf zram: introduce zram memory tracking
zRam as swap is useful for small memory device.  However, swap means
those pages on zram are mostly cold pages due to VM's LRU algorithm.
Especially, once init data for application are touched for launching,
they tend to be not accessed any more and finally swapped out.  zRAM can
store such cold pages as compressed form but it's pointless to keep in
memory.  Better idea is app developers free them directly rather than
remaining them on heap.

This patch tell us last access time of each block of zram via "cat
/sys/kernel/debug/zram/zram0/block_state".

The output is as follows,
      300    75.033841 .wh
      301    63.806904 s..
      302    63.806919 ..h

First column is zram's block index and 3rh one represents symbol (s:
same page w: written page to backing store h: huge page) of the block
state.  Second column represents usec time unit of the block was last
accessed.  So above example means the 300th block is accessed at
75.033851 second and it was huge so it was written to the backing store.

Admin can leverage this information to catch cold|incompressible pages
of process with *pagemap* once part of heaps are swapped out.

I used the feature a few years ago to find memory hoggers in userspace
to notify them what memory they have wasted without touch for a long
time.  With it, they could reduce unnecessary memory space.  However, at
that time, I hacked up zram for the feature but now I need the feature
again so I decided it would be better to upstream rather than keeping it
alone.  I hope I submit the userspace tool to use the feature soon.

89e85bce4b zram: mark incompressible page as ZRAM_HUGE
Mark incompressible pages so that we could investigate who is the owner
of the incompressible pages once the page is swapped out via using
upcoming zram memory tracker feature.

With it, we could prevent such pages to be swapped out by using mlock.
Otherwise we might remove them.

This patch exposes new stat for huge pages via mm_stat.

      301    63.806904 s..
      302    63.806919 ..h

First column is zram's block index and 3rh one represents symbol (s:
same page w: written page to backing store h: huge page) of the block
state.  Second column represents usec time unit of the block was last
accessed.  So above example means the 300th block is accessed at
75.033851 second and it was huge so it was written to the backing store.

This patch (of 4):

ZRAM_ACCESS is used for locking a slot of zram so correct the name.  It
is also not a common flag to indicate status of the block so move the
declare position on top of the flag.  Lastly, let's move the function to
the top of source code to be able to use it easily without forward
declaration.

60f5921a9a zram: drop max_zpage_size and use zs_huge_class_size()
Remove ZRAM's enforced "huge object" value and use zsmalloc huge-class
watermark instead, which makes more sense.

TEST
- I used a 1G zram device, LZO compression back-end, original
  data set size was 444MB. Looking at zsmalloc classes stats the
  test ended up to be pretty fair.

As we can see, we reduced the number of objects stored in class-4096,
because a huge number of objects which we previously forcibly stored in
class-4096 now stored in non-huge class-3264.  This results in lower
memory consumption:

- zsmalloc now uses 47424 physical pages, which is less than 48787 pages
  zsmalloc used before.

- objects that we store in class-3264 share zspages.  That's why overall
  the number of pages that both class-4096 and class-3264 consumed went
  down from 10924 to 9564.

23c47d2ada bdi: introduce BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO
As discussed at

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/<20170728165604.10455-1-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com>

someday we will remove rw_page().  If so, we need something to detect
such super-fast storage on which synchronous IO operations like the
current rw_page are always a win.

Introduces BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO to indicate such devices.  With it, we
could use various optimization techniques.

e447a0151f zram: set BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES once
With fast swap storage, the platform wants to use swap more aggressively
and swap-in is crucial to application latency.

The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage.  When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4
decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%.  Maybe, it would be
bigger in nvdimm.

This patchset reduces swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the swap
device is a synchronous device like a rw_page() based device.

It enhances by 45% my swapin test (5G sequential swapin, no readahead)
from 2.41sec to 1.64sec.

This patch (of 4):

Commit 19b7ccf865 ("block: get rid of blk_integrity_revalidate()")
fixed a weird thing (i.e., reset BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES flag
unconditionally whenever revalidat_disk is called) so zram doesn't need
to reset the flag any more when revalidating the bdev.  Instead, set the
flag just once when the zram device is created.

It shouldn't change any behavior.

8e654f8fbf zram: read page from backing device
This patch enables read IO from backing device.  For the feature, it
implements two IO read functions to transfer data from backing storage.

One is asynchronous IO function and other is synchronous one.

A reason I need synchrnous IO is due to partial write which need to
complete read IO before the overwriting partial data.

We can make the partial IO's case asynchronous, too but at the moment, I
don't feel adding more complexity to support such rare use cases so want
to go with simple.

This patch enables write IO to transfer data to backing device.  For
that, it implements write_to_bdev function which creates new bio and
chaining with parent bio to make the parent bio asynchrnous.

For rw_page which don't have parent bio, it submit owned bio and handle
IO completion by zram_page_end_io.

Also, this patch defines new flag ZRAM_WB to mark written page for later
read IO.

For upcoming asynchronous IO like writeback, zram_rw_page should be
aware of that whether requested IO was completed or submitted
successfully, otherwise error.

For the goal, zram_bvec_rw has three return values.

-errno: returns error number
     0: IO request is done synchronously
     1: IO request is issued successfully.

1363d4662a zram: add free space management in backing device
With backing device, zram needs management of free space of backing
device.

This patch adds bitmap logic to manage free space which is very naive.
However, it would be simple enough as considering uncompressible pages's
frequenty in zram.

013bf95a83 zram: add interface to specif backing device
For writeback feature, user should set up backing device before the zram

This patch enables the interface via /sys/block/zramX/backing_dev.

Currently, it supports block device only but it could be enhanced for
file as well.

4ebbe7f7fc zram: clean up duplicated codes in __zram_bvec_write
Patch series "writeback incompressible pages to storage", v1.

zRam is useful for memory saving with compressible pages but sometime,
workload can be changed and system has lots of incompressible pages
which is very harmful for zram.

This patch supports writeback feature of zram so admin can set up a
block device and with it, zram can save the memory via writing out the
incompressile pages once it found it's incompressible pages (1/4 comp
ratio) instead of keeping the page in memory.

[1-3] is just clean up and [4-8] is step by step feature enablement.
[4-8] is logically not bisectable(ie, logical unit separation)
although I tried to compiled out without breaking but I think it would
be better to review.

This patch (of 9):

__zram_bvec_write has some of duplicated logic for zram meta data
handling of same_page|compressed_page.  This patch aims to clean it up
without behavior change.

f357e345ee zram: rework copy of compressor name in comp_algorithm_store()
comp_algorithm_store() passes the size of the source buffer to strlcpy()
instead of the destination buffer size.  Make it explicit that the two
buffers have the same size and use strcpy() instead of strlcpy().  The
latter can be done safely since the function ensures that the string in
the source buffer is terminated.

In page_same_filled function, all elements in the page is compared with
next index value.  The current comparison routine compares the (i)th and
(i+1)th values of the page.

In this case, two load operaions occur for each comparison.  But if we
store first value of the page stores at 'val' variable and using it to
compare with others, the load opearation is reduced.  It reduce load
operation per page by up to 64times.

This patch (of 6):

Johannes Thumshirn reported system goes the panic when using NVMe over
Fabrics loopback target with zram.

The reason is zram expects each bvec in bio contains a single page
but nvme can attach a huge bulk of pages attached to the bio's bvec
so that zram's index arithmetic could be wrong so that out-of-bound
access makes system panic.

[1] in mainline solved solved the problem by limiting max_sectors with
SECTORS_PER_PAGE but it makes zram slow because bio should split with
each pages so this patch makes zram aware of multiple pages in a bvec
so it could solve without any regression(ie, bio split).

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Add BFQ IO scheduler under the new blk-mq scheduling framework. BFQ
   was initially a fork of CFQ, but subsequently changed to implement
   fairness based on B-WF2Q+, a modified variant of WF2Q. BFQ is meant
   to be used on desktop type single drives, providing good fairness.
   From Paolo.

 - Add Kyber IO scheduler. This is a full multiqueue aware scheduler,
   using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
   live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.

 - A series from Jan, moving users to separately allocated backing
   devices. This continues the work of separating backing device life
   times, solving various problems with hot removal.

 - A series of updates for lightnvm, mostly from Javier. Includes a
   'pblk' target that exposes an open channel SSD as a physical block
   device.

 - A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.

 - A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
   legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
   queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
   more than a decade.

 - Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
   windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
   register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.

 - blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
   framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
   blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
   marked experimental for now.

 - Bucketized IO stats for IO polling from Stephen Bates. This improves
   efficiency of polled workloads in the presence of mixed block size
   IO.

 - A few fixes for opal, from Scott.

 - A few pulls for NVMe, including a lot of fixes for NVMe-over-fabrics.
   From a variety of folks, mostly Sagi and James Smart.

 - A series from Bart, improving our exposed info and capabilities from
   the blk-mq debugfs support.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up how handle WRITE_ZEROES.

 - A series from Christoph, cleaning up the block layer handling of how
   we track errors in a request. On top of being a nice cleanup, it also
   shrinks the size of struct request a bit.

 - Removal of mg_disk and hd (sorry Linus) by Christoph. The former was
   never used by platforms, and the latter has outlived it's usefulness.

 - Various little bug fixes and cleanups from a wide variety of folks.

d72e9a7a93 zram: do not use copy_page with non-page aligned address
The copy_page is optimized memcpy for page-alinged address.  If it is
used with non-page aligned address, it can corrupt memory which means
system corruption.  With zram, it can happen with

1. 64K architecture
2. partial IO
3. slub debug

Partial IO need to allocate a page and zram allocates it via kmalloc.
With slub debug, kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE) doesn't return page-size aligned
address.  And finally, copy_page(mem, cmem) corrupts memory.

So, this patch changes it to memcpy.

Actuaully, we don't need to change zram_bvec_write part because zsmalloc
returns page-aligned address in case of PAGE_SIZE class but it's not
good to rely on the internal of zsmalloc.

Note:
 When this patch is merged to stable, clear_page should be fixed, too.
 Unfortunately, recent zram removes it by "same page merge" feature so
 it's hard to backport this patch to -stable tree.

I will handle it when I receive the mail from stable tree maintainer to
merge this patch to backport.

4ca82dabc9 zram: fix operator precedence to get offset
In zram_rw_page, the logic to get offset is wrong by operator precedence
(i.e., "<<" is higher than "&").  With wrong offset, zram can corrupt
the user's data.  This patch fixes it.

0bc315381f zram: set physical queue limits to avoid array out of bounds accesses
zram can handle at most SECTORS_PER_PAGE sectors in a bio's bvec. When using
the NVMe over Fabrics loopback target which potentially sends a huge bulk of
pages attached to the bio's bvec this results in a kernel panic because of
array out of bounds accesses in zram_decompress_page().

8e19d540d1 zram: extend zero pages to same element pages
The idea is that without doing more calculations we extend zero pages to
same element pages for zram.  zero page is special case of same element
page with zero element.

1. the test is done under android 7.0
2. startup too many applications circularly
3. sample the zero pages, same pages (none-zero element)
   and total pages in function page_zero_filled

the result is listed as below:

ZERO	SAME	TOTAL
36214	17842	598196

		ZERO/TOTAL	 SAME/TOTAL	  (ZERO+SAME)/TOTAL ZERO/SAME
AVERAGE	0.060631909	 0.024990816  0.085622726		2.663825038
STDEV	0.00674612	 0.005887625  0.009707034		2.115881328
MAX		0.069698422	 0.030046087  0.094975336		7.56043956
MIN		0.03959586	 0.007332205  0.056055193		1.928985507

from the above data, the benefit is about 2.5% and up to 3% of total
swapout pages.

The defect of the patch is that when we recovery a page from non-zero
element the operations are low efficient for partial read.

This patch extends zero_page to same_page so if there is any user to
have monitored zero_pages, he will be surprised if the number is
increased but it's not harmful, I believe.

a09759acaa zram: remove waitqueue for IO done
zram_reset_device() waits for ongoing writepage pages to be completed by
zram->refcount logic.  However, it's pointless because before the reset,
we prevent further opening of zram by zram->claim and flush all of
pending IO by fsync_bdev so there should be no pending IO at the
zram_reset_device().

So let's remove that code which is even broken due to the lack of
wake_up elsewhere.

c87d1655c2 zram: remove obsolete sysfs attrs
We had a deprecated_attr_warn() warning for 2 years and now the time has
come and we finally can do the cleanup.

The plan was as follows:

: per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
: The basic strategy is:
: -- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
: -- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
:
: The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
: Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
:
: Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs
: node (e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files
: (zram<id>/stat or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered
: to be deprecated.

The patch also removes `obsolete/sysfs-block-zram', clean ups
`testing/sysfs-block-zram' and tweaks zram.txt files.
