zswap can support multiple swapfiles. So we need to check all zbud pool pages in zswap. Version 2: * add *total_zbud_pages* in zbud to record all the pages in pools * move the updating of pool pages statistics to alloc_zbud_page/free_zbud_page to hide the details Signed-off-by: Cai Liu <redacted> --- include/linux/zbud.h | 2 +- mm/zbud.c | 44 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ mm/zswap.c | 4 ++-- 3 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)diff --git a/include/linux/zbud.h b/include/linux/zbud.h index 2571a5c..1dbc13e 100644 --- a/include/linux/zbud.h +++ b/include/linux/zbud.h@@ -17,6 +17,6 @@ void zbud_free(struct zbud_pool *pool, unsigned long handle); int zbud_reclaim_page(struct zbud_pool *pool, unsigned int retries); void *zbud_map(struct zbud_pool *pool, unsigned long handle); void zbud_unmap(struct zbud_pool *pool, unsigned long handle); -u64 zbud_get_pool_size(struct zbud_pool *pool); +u64 zbud_get_pool_size(void); #endif /* _ZBUD_H_ */diff --git a/mm/zbud.c b/mm/zbud.c index 9451361..711aaf4 100644 --- a/mm/zbud.c +++ b/mm/zbud.c@@ -52,6 +52,13 @@ #include <linux/spinlock.h> #include <linux/zbud.h> +/********************************* +* statistics +**********************************/ + +/* zbud pages in all pools */ +static u64 total_zbud_pages; + /***************** * Structures *****************/@@ -142,10 +149,28 @@ static struct zbud_header *init_zbud_page(struct page *page) return zhdr; } +static struct page *alloc_zbud_page(struct zbud_pool *pool, gfp_t gfp) +{ + struct page *page; + + page = alloc_page(gfp); + + if (page) { + pool->pages_nr++; + total_zbud_pages++;Who protect race?Yes, here the pool->pages_nr and also the total_zbud_pages are not protected. I will re-do it. I will change *total_zbud_pages* to atomic type.
And how about just add total_zbud_pages++ and leave pool->pages_nr in its original place which already protected by pool->lock?
For *pool->pages_nr*, one way is to use pool->lock to protect. But I think it is too heavy. So does it ok to change pages_nr to atomic type too?
