mm: zswap: multiple zpools support
Support using multiple zpools of the same type in zswap, for concurrency purposes. A fixed number of 32 zpools is suggested by this commit, which was determined empirically. It can be later changed or made into a config option if needed. On a setup with zswap and zsmalloc, comparing a single zpool to 32 zpools shows improvements in the zsmalloc lock contention, especially on the swap out path. The following shows the perf analysis of the swapout path when 10 workloads are simultaneously reclaiming and refaulting tmpfs pages. There are some improvements on the swap in path as well, but less significant. 1 zpool: |--28.99%--zswap_frontswap_store | <snip> | |--8.98%--zpool_map_handle | | | --8.98%--zs_zpool_map | | | --8.95%--zs_map_object | | | --8.38%--_raw_spin_lock | | | --7.39%--queued_spin_lock_slowpath | |--8.82%--zpool_malloc | | | --8.82%--zs_zpool_malloc | | | --8.80%--zs_malloc | | | |--7.21%--_raw_spin_lock | | | | | --6.81%--queued_spin_lock_slowpath <snip> 32 zpools: |--16.73%--zswap_frontswap_store | <snip> | |--1.81%--zpool_malloc | | | --1.81%--zs_zpool_malloc | | | --1.79%--zs_malloc | | | --0.73%--obj_malloc | |--1.06%--zswap_update_total_size | |--0.59%--zpool_map_handle | | | --0.59%--zs_zpool_map | | | --0.57%--zs_map_object | | | --0.51%--_raw_spin_lock <snip> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230620194644.3142384-1-yosryahmed@google.comSigned-off-by: Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> Suggested-by: Yu Zhao <yuzhao@google.com> Acked-by: Chris Li (Google) <chrisl@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nhat Pham <nphamcs@gmail.com> Tested-by: Nhat Pham <nphamcs@gmail.com> Cc: Dan Streetman <ddstreet@ieee.org> Cc: Domenico Cerasuolo <cerasuolodomenico@gmail.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Cc: Seth Jennings <sjenning@redhat.com> Cc: Vitaly Wool <vitaly.wool@konsulko.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
