Subject: [PATCH 14/29] mm: multi-gen LRU: retry pages written back while
isolated
The page reclaim isolates a batch of pages from the tail of one of the
LRU lists and works on those pages one by one. For a suitable
swap-backed page, if the swap device is async, it queues that page for
writeback. After the page reclaim finishes an entire batch, it puts back
the pages it queued for writeback to the head of the original LRU list.
In the meantime, the page writeback flushes the queued pages also by
batches. Its batching logic is independent from that of the page reclaim.
For each of the pages it writes back, the page writeback calls
rotate_reclaimable_page() which tries to rotate a page to the tail.
rotate_reclaimable_page() only works for a page after the page reclaim
has put it back. If an async swap device is fast enough, the page
writeback can finish with that page while the page reclaim is still
working on the rest of the batch containing it. In this case, that page
will remain at the head and the page reclaim will not retry it before
reaching there.
This patch adds a retry to evict_pages(). After evict_pages() has
finished an entire batch and before it puts back pages it cannot free
immediately, it retries those that may have missed the rotation.
Before this patch, ~60% of pages swapped to an Intel Optane missed
rotate_reclaimable_page(). After this patch, ~99% of missed pages were
reclaimed upon retry.
This problem affects relatively slow async swap devices like Samsung 980
Pro much less and does not affect sync swap devices like zram or zswap at
all.
