mm: attempt to batch free swap entries for zap_pte_range()
Zhiguo reported that swap release could be a serious bottleneck during process exits[1]. With mTHP, we have the opportunity to batch free swaps. Thanks to the work of Chris and Kairui[2], I was able to achieve this optimization with minimal code changes by building on their efforts. If swap_count is 1, which is likely true as most anon memory are private, we can free all contiguous swap slots all together. Ran the below test program for measuring the bandwidth of munmap using zRAM and 64KiB mTHP: #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <stdlib.h> unsigned long long tv_to_ms(struct timeval tv) { return tv.tv_sec * 1000 + tv.tv_usec / 1000; } main() { struct timeval tv_b, tv_e; int i; #define SIZE 1024*1024*1024 void *p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); if (!p) { perror("fail to get memory"); exit(-1); } madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE); memset(p, 0x11, SIZE); /* write to get mem */ madvise(p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT); gettimeofday(&tv_b, NULL); munmap(p, SIZE); gettimeofday(&tv_e, NULL); printf("munmap in bandwidth: %ld bytes/ms\n", SIZE/(tv_to_ms(tv_e) - tv_to_ms(tv_b))); } The result is as below (munmap bandwidth): mm-unstable mm-unstable-with-patch round1 21053761 63161283 round2 21053761 63161283 round3 21053761 63161283 round4 20648881 67108864 round5 20648881 67108864 munmap bandwidth becomes 3X faster.
