From aa779e5102195e1d9ade95dcbc0bfbd8f916eb59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: zhanglianjie Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2022 18:51:51 -0800 Subject: mm: move page-writeback sysctls to their own file kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain. To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we just care about the core logic. So move the page-writeback sysctls to its own file.

For block-device swapspace, the blk_plug functionality allows the multiple pages to be combined together at lower layers. That cannot be used for SWP_FS_OPS as blk_plug may not exist - it is only active when CONFIG_BLOCK=y. Consequently all swap reads over NFS are single page reads. With this patch we pass a pointer-to-pointer via the wbc. swap_writepage can store state between calls - much like the pointer passed explicitly to swap_readpage. After calling swap_writepage() some number of times, the state will be passed to swap_write_unplug() which can submit the combined request.

It adds the parameter flags to balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited(). The flags parameter is passed to balance_dirty_pages(). For async buffered writes the flag value will be BDP_ASYNC. If balance_dirty_pages() gets called for async buffered write, we don't want to wait. Instead we need to indicate to the caller that throttling is needed so that it can stop writing and offload the rest of the write to a context that can block. The new helper function is also used by balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited().
