mm: remove the implementation of swap_free() and always use swap_free_nr()
To streamline maintenance efforts, we propose removing the implementation of swap_free(). Instead, we can simply invoke swap_free_nr() with nr set to 1. swap_free_nr() is designed with a bitmap consisting of only one long, resulting in overhead that can be ignored for cases where nr equals 1. A prime candidate for leveraging swap_free_nr() lies within kernel/power/swap.c. Implementing this change facilitates the adoption of batch processing for hibernation.

mm: swap: introduce swap_free_nr() for batched swap_free()
Patch series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first", v5. This patchset is extracted from the large folio swapin series[1], primarily addressing the handling of scenarios involving large folios in the swap cache. Currently, it is particularly focused on addressing the refaulting of mTHP, which is still undergoing reclamation. This approach aims to streamline code review and expedite the integration of this segment into the MM tree. It relies on Ryan's swap-out series[2], leveraging the helper function swap_pte_batch() introduced by that series. Presently, do_swap_page only encounters a large folio in the swap cache before the large folio is released by vmscan. However, the code should remain equally useful once we support large folio swap-in via swapin_readahead(). This approach can effectively reduce page faults and eliminate most redundant checks and early exits for MTE restoration in recent MTE patchset[3]. The large folio swap-in for SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO and swapin_readahead() will be split into separate patch sets and sent at a later time. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240304081348.197341-1-21cnbao@gmail.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240408183946.2991168-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com/ [3] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240322114136.61386-1-21cnbao@gmail.com/ This patch (of 6): While swapping in a large folio, we need to free swaps related to the whole folio. To avoid frequently acquiring and releasing swap locks, it is better to introduce an API for batched free. Furthermore, this new function, swap_free_nr(), is designed to efficiently handle various scenarios for releasing a specified number, nr, of swap entries.

mm: swap: allow storage of all mTHP orders
Multi-size THP enables performance improvements by allocating large, pte-mapped folios for anonymous memory. However I've observed that on an arm64 system running a parallel workload (e.g. kernel compilation) across many cores, under high memory pressure, the speed regresses. This is due to bottlenecking on the increased number of TLBIs added due to all the extra folio splitting when the large folios are swapped out. Therefore, solve this regression by adding support for swapping out mTHP without needing to split the folio, just like is already done for PMD-sized THP. This change only applies when CONFIG_THP_SWAP is enabled, and when the swap backing store is a non-rotating block device. These are the same constraints as for the existing PMD-sized THP swap-out support. Note that no attempt is made to swap-in (m)THP here - this is still done page-by-page, like for PMD-sized THP. But swapping-out mTHP is a prerequisite for swapping-in mTHP. The main change here is to improve the swap entry allocator so that it can allocate any power-of-2 number of contiguous entries between [1, (1 << PMD_ORDER)]. This is done by allocating a cluster for each distinct order and allocating sequentially from it until the cluster is full. This ensures that we don't need to search the map and we get no fragmentation due to alignment padding for different orders in the cluster. If there is no current cluster for a given order, we attempt to allocate a free cluster from the list. If there are no free clusters, we fail the allocation and the caller can fall back to splitting the folio and allocates individual entries (as per existing PMD-sized THP fallback). The per-order current clusters are maintained per-cpu using the existing infrastructure. This is done to avoid interleving pages from different tasks, which would prevent IO being batched. This is already done for the order-0 allocations so we follow the same pattern. As is done for order-0 per-cpu clusters, the scanner now can steal order-0 entries from any per-cpu-per-order reserved cluster. This ensures that when the swap file is getting full, space doesn't get tied up in the per-cpu reserves. This change only modifies swap to be able to accept any order mTHP. It doesn't change the callers to elide doing the actual split. That will be done in separate changes.

mm: swap: update get_swap_pages() to take folio order
We are about to allow swap storage of any mTHP size. To prepare for that, let's change get_swap_pages() to take a folio order parameter instead of nr_pages. This makes the interface self-documenting; a power-of-2 number of pages must be provided. We will also need the order internally so this simplifies accessing it.

mm: swap: simplify struct percpu_cluster
struct percpu_cluster stores the index of cpu's current cluster and the offset of the next entry that will be allocated for the cpu. These two pieces of information are redundant because the cluster index is just (offset / SWAPFILE_CLUSTER). The only reason for explicitly keeping the cluster index is because the structure used for it also has a flag to indicate "no cluster". However this data structure also contains a spin lock, which is never used in this context, as a side effect the code copies the spinlock_t structure, which is questionable coding practice in my view. So let's clean this up and store only the next offset, and use a sentinal value (SWAP_NEXT_INVALID) to indicate "no cluster". SWAP_NEXT_INVALID is chosen to be 0, because 0 will never be seen legitimately; The first page in the swap file is the swap header, which is always marked bad to prevent it from being allocated as an entry. This also prevents the cluster to which it belongs being marked free, so it will never appear on the free list. This change saves 16 bytes per cpu. And given we are shortly going to extend this mechanism to be per-cpu-AND-per-order, we will end up saving 16 * 9 = 144 bytes per cpu, which adds up if you have 256 cpus in the system.

mm: swap: free_swap_and_cache_nr() as batched free_swap_and_cache()
Now that we no longer have a convenient flag in the cluster to determine if a folio is large, free_swap_and_cache() will take a reference and lock a large folio much more often, which could lead to contention and (e.g.) failure to split large folios, etc. Let's solve that problem by batch freeing swap and cache with a new function, free_swap_and_cache_nr(), to free a contiguous range of swap entries together. This allows us to first drop a reference to each swap slot before we try to release the cache folio. This means we only try to release the folio once, only taking the reference and lock once - much better than the previous 512 times for the 2M THP case. Contiguous swap entries are gathered in zap_pte_range() and madvise_free_pte_range() in a similar way to how present ptes are already gathered in zap_pte_range(). While we are at it, let's simplify by converting the return type of both functions to void. The return value was used only by zap_pte_range() to print a bad pte, and was ignored by everyone else, so the extra reporting wasn't exactly guaranteed. We will still get the warning with most of the information from get_swap_device(). With the batch version, we wouldn't know which pte was bad anyway so could print the wrong one.

mm: swap: remove CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE from swap_cluster_info:flags
Patch series "Swap-out mTHP without splitting", v7.
This series adds support for swapping out multi-size THP (mTHP) without
needing to first split the large folio via
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order(). It closely follows the approach
already used to swap-out PMD-sized THP.
There are a couple of reasons for swapping out mTHP without splitting:
- Performance: It is expensive to split a large folio and under
extreme memory pressure some workloads regressed performance when
using 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios because of this extra cost in the
swap-out path. This series not only eliminates the regression but
makes it faster to swap out 64K mTHP vs 4K small folios.
- Memory fragmentation avoidance: If we can avoid splitting a large
folio memory is less likely to become fragmented, making it easier to
re-allocate a large folio in future.
- Performance: Enables a separate series [7] to swap-in whole mTHPs,
which means we won't lose the TLB-efficiency benefits of mTHP once the
memory has been through a swap cycle.
I've done what I thought was the smallest change possible, and as a
result, this approach is only employed when the swap is backed by a
non-rotating block device (just as PMD-sized THP is supported today).
Discussion against the RFC concluded that this is sufficient.
Performance Testing
===================
I've run some swap performance tests on Ampere Altra VM (arm64) with 8
CPUs. The VM is set up with a 35G block ram device as the swap device and
the test is run from inside a memcg limited to 40G memory. I've then run
`usemem` from vm-scalability with 70 processes, each allocating and
writing 1G of memory. I've repeated everything 6 times and taken the mean
performance improvement relative to 4K page baseline:
| alloc size | baseline | + this series |
| | mm-unstable (~v6.9-rc1) | |
|:-----------|------------------------:|------------------------:|
| 4K Page | 0.0% | 1.3% |
| 64K THP | -13.6% | 46.3% |
| 2M THP | 91.4% | 89.6% |
So with this change, the 64K swap performance goes from a 14% regression to a
46% improvement. While 2M shows a small regression I'm confident that this is
just noise.

This patch (of 7):
As preparation for supporting small-sized THP in the swap-out path,
without first needing to split to order-0, Remove the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE,
which, when present, always implies PMD-sized THP, which is the same as
the cluster size.
The only use of the flag was to determine whether a swap entry refers to a
single page or a PMD-sized THP in swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). Instead
of relying on the flag, we now pass in order, which originates from the
folio's order. This allows the logic to work for folios of any order.
The one snag is that one of the swap_page_trans_huge_swapped() call sites
does not have the folio. But it was only being called there to shortcut a
call __try_to_reclaim_swap() in some cases. __try_to_reclaim_swap() gets
the folio and (via some other functions) calls
swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(). So I've removed the problematic call site
and believe the new logic should be functionally equivalent.
That said, removing the fast path means that we will take a reference and
trylock a large folio much more often, which we would like to avoid. The
next patch will solve this.
Removing CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE also means we can remove split_swap_cluster()
which used to be called during folio splitting, since
split_swap_cluster()'s only job was to remove the flag.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames
from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series
"implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390".
- More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series
"Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios"
"mm: convert mm counter to take a folio"
- Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing
significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable
reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the
scalability of zswap rb-tree".
- Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap
lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some
swap-intensive situations.
- And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap:
optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest.
- zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series
"mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()".
- In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has
contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to
control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is
hotplugged as system memory.
- Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups",
which does that.
- More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series
"mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable"
"selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases"
"Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements"
"mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself"
- In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs
extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving
policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion
rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory
environments appearing with CXL.
- Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work
against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump:
Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute".
- Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the
series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests".
- Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its
human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol")
format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party
tools to parse and process out selftesting results.
- Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the
series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly
targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the
process has a large number of pte-mapped folios.
- David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his
series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It
implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown
situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice.
- And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings"
Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte
mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's
series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work.
- In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has
fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page
faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code.
- In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction
test", Mark Brown did what the title claims.
- Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and
refactoring".
- Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend
zswap kselftests" does as claimed.
- In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX
regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess
in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing
data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary.
- Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides
dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during
certain userfaultfd operations.
- Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador
in his series
"page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations"
"page_owner: Fixup and cleanup"
- Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability
improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention". It
realizes a 12x improvement for a certain microbenchmark.
- Some kexec/crash cleanup work from Baoquan He in the series "Split
crash out from kexec and clean up related config items".
- Some zsmalloc maintenance work from Chengming Zhou in the series
"mm/zsmalloc: fix and optimize objects/page migration"
"mm/zsmalloc: some cleanup for get/set_zspage_mapping()"
- Zi Yan has taught the MM to perform compaction on folios larger than
order=0. This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging
of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio
memory compaction".
- Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the
pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages()
to an iterator".
- Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series
"Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock".

Pull block handle updates from Christian Brauner:
"Last cycle we changed opening of block devices, and opening a block
device would return a bdev_handle. This allowed us to implement
support for restricting and forbidding writes to mounted block
devices. It was accompanied by converting and adding helpers to
operate on bdev_handles instead of plain block devices.
That was already a good step forward but ultimately it isn't necessary
to have special purpose helpers for opening block devices internally
that return a bdev_handle.
Fundamentally, opening a block device internally should just be
equivalent to opening files. So now all internal opens of block
devices return files just as a userspace open would. Instead of
introducing a separate indirection into bdev_open_by_*() via struct
bdev_handle bdev_file_open_by_*() is made to just return a struct
file. Opening and closing a block device just becomes equivalent to
opening and closing a file.
This all works well because internally we already have a pseudo fs for
block devices and so opening block devices is simple. There's a few
places where we needed to be careful such as during boot when the
kernel is supposed to mount the rootfs directly without init doing it.
Here we need to take care to ensure that we flush out any asynchronous
file close. That's what we already do for opening, unpacking, and
closing the initramfs. So nothing new here.
The equivalence of opening and closing block devices to regular files
is a win in and of itself. But it also has various other advantages.
We can remove struct bdev_handle completely. Various low-level helpers
are now private to the block layer. Other helpers were simply
removable completely.
A follow-up series that is already reviewed build on this and makes it
possible to remove bdev->bd_inode and allows various clean ups of the
buffer head code as well. All places where we stashed a bdev_handle
now just stash a file and use simple accessors to get to the actual
block device which was already the case for bdev_handle"

mm/swap: fix race when skipping swapcache
When skipping swapcache for SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO, if two or more threads
swapin the same entry at the same time, they get different pages (A, B).
Before one thread (T0) finishes the swapin and installs page (A) to the
PTE, another thread (T1) could finish swapin of page (B), swap_free the
entry, then swap out the possibly modified page reusing the same entry.
It breaks the pte_same check in (T0) because PTE value is unchanged,
causing ABA problem. Thread (T0) will install a stalled page (A) into the
PTE and cause data corruption.
One possible callstack is like this:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
do_swap_page() do_swap_page() with same entry
<direct swapin path> <direct swapin path>
<alloc page A> <alloc page B>
swap_read_folio() <- read to page A swap_read_folio() <- read to page B
<slow on later locks or interrupt> <finished swapin first>
... set_pte_at()
swap_free() <- entry is free
<write to page B, now page A stalled>
<swap out page B to same swap entry>
pte_same() <- Check pass, PTE seems
unchanged, but page A
is stalled!
swap_free() <- page B content lost!
set_pte_at() <- staled page A installed!
And besides, for ZRAM, swap_free() allows the swap device to discard the
entry content, so even if page (B) is not modified, if swap_read_folio()
on CPU0 happens later than swap_free() on CPU1, it may also cause data
loss.
To fix this, reuse swapcache_prepare which will pin the swap entry using
the cache flag, and allow only one thread to swap it in, also prevent any
parallel code from putting the entry in the cache. Release the pin after
PT unlocked.
Racers just loop and wait since it's a rare and very short event. A
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) call is added to avoid repeated page
faults wasting too much CPU, causing livelock or adding too much noise to
perf statistics. A similar livelock issue was described in commit

mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP
Patch series "mm/swap: stop using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP + cleanups". This series stops using page->private on tail pages for THP_SWAP, replaces folio->private by folio->swap for swapcache folios, and starts using "new_folio" for tail pages that we are splitting to remove the usage of page->private for swapcache handling completely. This patch (of 4): Let's stop using page->private on tail pages, making it possible to just unconditionally reuse that field in the tail pages of large folios. The remaining usage of the private field for THP_SWAP is in the THP splitting code (mm/huge_memory.c), that we'll handle separately later. Update the THP_SWAP documentation and sanity checks in mm_types.h and __split_huge_page_tail().

mm/swap: swap_vma_readahead() do the pte_offset_map()
swap_vma_readahead() has been proceeding in an unconventional way, its preliminary swap_ra_info() doing the pte_offset_map() and pte_unmap(), then relying on that pte pointer even after the pte_unmap() - in its CONFIG_64BIT case (I think !CONFIG_HIGHPTE was intended; whereas 32-bit copied ptes to stack while they were mapped, but had to limit how many). Though it would be difficult to construct a failing testcase, accessing page table after pte_unmap() will become bad practice, even on 64-bit: an rcu_read_unlock() in pte_unmap() will allow page table to be freed. Move relevant definitions from include/linux/swap.h to mm/swap_state.c, nothing else used them. Delete the CONFIG_64BIT distinction and buffer, delete all reference to ptes from swap_ra_info(), use pte_offset_map() repeatedly in swap_vma_readahead(), breaking from the loop if it fails. (Will the repeated "map" and "unmap" show up as a slowdown anywhere? If so, maybe modify __read_swap_cache_async() to do the pte_unmap() only when it does not find the page already in the swapcache.) Use ptep_get_lockless(), mainly for its READ_ONCE(). Correctly advance the address passed down to each call of __read__swap_cache_async().

workingset: refactor LRU refault to expose refault recency check
Patch series "cachestat: a new syscall for page cache state of files",
v13.
There is currently no good way to query the page cache statistics of large
files and directory trees. There is mincore(), but it scales poorly: the
kernel writes out a lot of bitmap data that userspace has to aggregate,
when the user really does not care about per-page information in that
case. The user also needs to mmap and unmap each file as it goes along,
which can be quite slow as well.
Some use cases where this information could come in handy:
* Allowing database to decide whether to perform an index scan or direct
table queries based on the in-memory cache state of the index.
* Visibility into the writeback algorithm, for performance issues
diagnostic.
* Workload-aware writeback pacing: estimating IO fulfilled by page cache
(and IO to be done) within a range of a file, allowing for more
frequent syncing when and where there is IO capacity, and batching
when there is not.
* Computing memory usage of large files/directory trees, analogous to
the du tool for disk usage.
More information about these use cases could be found in this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230315170934.GA97793@cmpxchg.org/
This series of patches introduces a new system call, cachestat, that
summarizes the page cache statistics (number of cached pages, dirty pages,
pages marked for writeback, evicted pages etc.) of a file, in a specified
range of bytes. It also include a selftest suite that tests some typical
usage. Currently, the syscall is only wired in for x86 architecture.
This interface is inspired by past discussion and concerns with fincore,
which has a similar design (and as a result, issues) as mincore. Relevant
links:
https://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.1/04207.html
https://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.1/04209.html
I have also developed a small tool that computes the memory usage of files
and directories, analogous to the du utility. User can choose between
mincore or cachestat (with cachestat exporting more information than
mincore). To compare the performance of these two options, I benchmarked
the tool on the root directory of a Meta's server machine, each for five
runs:
Using cachestat
real -- Median: 33.377s, Average: 33.475s, Standard Deviation: 0.3602
user -- Median: 4.08s, Average: 4.1078s, Standard Deviation: 0.0742
sys -- Median: 28.823s, Average: 28.8866s, Standard Deviation: 0.2689
Using mincore:
real -- Median: 102.352s, Average: 102.3442s, Standard Deviation: 0.2059
user -- Median: 10.149s, Average: 10.1482s, Standard Deviation: 0.0162
sys -- Median: 91.186s, Average: 91.2084s, Standard Deviation: 0.2046
I also ran both syscalls on a 2TB sparse file:
Using cachestat:
real 0m0.009s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.009s
Using mincore:
real 0m37.510s
user 0m2.934s
sys 0m34.558s
Very large files like this are the pathological case for mincore. In
fact, to compute the stats for a single 2TB file, mincore takes as long as
cachestat takes to compute the stats for the entire tree! This could
easily happen inadvertently when we run it on subdirectories. Mincore is
clearly not suitable for a general-purpose command line tool.
Regarding security concerns, cachestat() should not pose any additional
issues. The caller already has read permission to the file itself (since
they need an fd to that file to call cachestat). This means that the
caller can access the underlying data in its entirety, which is a much
greater source of information (and as a result, a much greater security
risk) than the cache status itself.
The latest API change (in v13 of the patch series) is suggested by Jens
Axboe. It allows for 64-bit length argument, even on 32-bit architecture
(which is previously not possible due to the limit on the number of
syscall arguments). Furthermore, it eliminates the need for compatibility
handling - every user can use the same ABI.
This patch (of 4):
In preparation for computing recently evicted pages in cachestat, refactor
workingset_refault and lru_gen_refault to expose a helper function that
would test if an evicted page is recently evicted.

However, we keep track of more than just reclaimed slab pages through this. We also use it for clean file pages dropped through pruned inodes, and xfs buffer pages freed.

The knob for cgroup v1 memory controller: memory.swappiness is not protected by any locking so it can be modified while it is used. This is not an actual problem because races are unlikely. But it is better to use [READ|WRITE]_ONCE to prevent compiler from doing anything funky. The access of memcg->swappiness and vm_swappiness is lockless, so both of them can be concurrently set at the same time as we are trying to read them.

mm: add nodes= arg to memory.reclaim
The nodes= arg instructs the kernel to only scan the given nodes for
proactive reclaim. For example use cases, consider a 2 tier memory
system:
nodes 0,1 -> top tier
nodes 2,3 -> second tier
$ echo "1m nodes=0" > memory.reclaim
This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory from node 0.
Since node 0 is a top tier node, demotion will be attempted first. This
is useful to direct proactive reclaim to specific nodes that are under
pressure.
$ echo "1m nodes=2,3" > memory.reclaim
This instructs the kernel to attempt to reclaim 1m memory in the second
tier, since this tier of memory has no demotion targets the memory will be
reclaimed.
$ echo "1m nodes=0,1" > memory.reclaim
Instructs the kernel to reclaim memory from the top tier nodes, which can
be desirable according to the userspace policy if there is pressure on the
top tiers. Since these nodes have demotion targets, the kernel will
attempt demotion first.

mm: use pte markers for swap errors
PTE markers are ideal mechanism for things like SWP_SWAPIN_ERROR. Using a whole swap entry type for this purpose can be an overkill, especially if we already have PTE markers. Define a new bit for swapin error and replace it with pte markers. Then we can safely drop SWP_SWAPIN_ERROR and give one device slot back to swap. We used to have SWP_SWAPIN_ERROR taking the page pfn as part of the swap entry, but it's never used. Neither do I see how it can be useful because normally the swapin failure should not be caused by a bad page but bad swap device. Drop it alongside.

mm: always compile in pte markers
Patch series "mm: Use pte marker for swapin errors". This series uses the pte marker to replace the swapin error swap entry, then we save one more swap entry slot for swap devices. A new pte marker bit is defined. This patch (of 2): The PTE markers code is tiny and now it's enabled for most of the distributions. It's fine to keep it as-is, but to make a broader use of it (e.g. replacing read error swap entry) it needs to be there always otherwise we need special code path to take care of !PTE_MARKER case. It'll be easier just make pte marker always exist. Use this chance to extend its usage to anonymous too by simply touching up some of the old comments, because it'll be used for anonymous pages in the follow up patches.

Introduce folio_set_swap_entry() to abstract how both folio->private and swp_entry_t work. Use swap_address_space() directly instead of indirecting through folio_mapping(). Include an assertion that the old folio is not large as we only allocate a single-page folio to replace it. Use folio_put_refs() instead of calling folio_put() twice.
