Shaohua Li 579f82901f swap: add a simple detector for inappropriate swapin readahead
This is a patch to improve swap readahead algorithm.  It's from Hugh and
I slightly changed it.

Hugh's original changelog:

swapin readahead does a blind readahead, whether or not the swapin is
sequential.  This may be ok on harddisk, because large reads have
relatively small costs, and if the readahead pages are unneeded they can
be reclaimed easily - though, what if their allocation forced reclaim of
useful pages? But on SSD devices large reads are more expensive than
small ones: if the readahead pages are unneeded, reading them in caused
significant overhead.

This patch adds very simplistic random read detection.  Stealing the
PageReadahead technique from Konstantin Khlebnikov's patch, avoiding the
vma/anon_vma sophistications of Shaohua Li's patch, swapin_nr_pages()
simply looks at readahead's current success rate, and narrows or widens
its readahead window accordingly.  There is little science to its
heuristic: it's about as stupid as can be whilst remaining effective.

The table below shows elapsed times (in centiseconds) when running a
single repetitive swapping load across a 1000MB mapping in 900MB ram
with 1GB swap (the harddisk tests had taken painfully too long when I
used mem=500M, but SSD shows similar results for that).

Vanilla is the 3.6-rc7 kernel on which I started; Shaohua denotes his
Sep 3 patch in mmotm and linux-next; HughOld denotes my Oct 1 patch
which Shaohua showed to be defective; HughNew this Nov 14 patch, with
page_cluster as usual at default of 3 (8-page reads); HughPC4 this same
patch with page_cluster 4 (16-page reads); HughPC0 with page_cluster 0
(1-page reads: no readahead).

HDD for swapping to harddisk, SSD for swapping to VertexII SSD.  Seq for
sequential access to the mapping, cycling five times around; Rand for
the same number of random touches.  Anon for a MAP_PRIVATE anon mapping;
Shmem for a MAP_SHARED anon mapping, equivalent to tmpfs.

One weakness of Shaohua's vma/anon_vma approach was that it did not
optimize Shmem: seen below.  Konstantin's approach was perhaps mistuned,
50% slower on Seq: did not compete and is not shown below.

Rand Shmem   45349   45215   28249   24268   24138   24332

These tests are, of course, two extremes of a very simple case: under
heavier mixed loads I've not yet observed any consistent improvement or
degradation, and wider testing would be welcome.

Shaohua Li:

Test shows Vanilla is slightly better in sequential workload than Hugh's
patch.  I observed with Hugh's patch sometimes the readahead size is
shrinked too fast (from 8 to 1 immediately) in sequential workload if
there is no hit.  And in such case, continuing doing readahead is good
actually.

I don't prepare a sophisticated algorithm for the sequential workload
because so far we can't guarantee sequential accessed pages are swap out
sequentially.  So I slightly change Hugh's heuristic - don't shrink
readahead size too fast.

Here is my test result (unit second, 3 runs average):
	Vanilla		Hugh		New
Seq	356		370		360
Random	4525		2447		2444

Attached graph is the swapin/swapout throughput I collected with 'vmstat
2'.  The first part is running a random workload (till around 1200 of
the x-axis) and the second part is running a sequential workload.
swapin and swapout throughput are almost identical in steady state in
both workloads.  These are expected behavior.  while in Vanilla, swapin
is much bigger than swapout especially in random workload (because wrong
readahead).

* Various page->flags bits:

*
* The PG_private bitflag is set on pagecache pages if they contain filesystem
* specific data (which is normally at page->private). It can be used by
* private allocations for its own usage.
*
* During initiation of disk I/O, PG_locked is set. This bit is set before I/O
* and cleared when writeback _starts_ or when read _completes_. PG_writeback
* is set before writeback starts and cleared when it finishes.
*
* PG_locked also pins a page in pagecache, and blocks truncation of the file
* while it is held.
*
* page_waitqueue(page) is a wait queue of all tasks waiting for the page
* to become unlocked.
*
* PG_uptodate tells whether the page's contents is valid. When a read
* completes, the page becomes uptodate, unless a disk I/O error happened.
*
* PG_referenced, PG_reclaim are used for page reclaim for anonymous and
* file-backed pagecache (see mm/vmscan.c).
*
* PG_error is set to indicate that an I/O error occurred on this page.
*
* PG_arch_1 is an architecture specific page state bit. The generic code
* guarantees that this bit is cleared for a page when it first is entered into
* the page cache.
*
* PG_highmem pages are not permanently mapped into the kernel virtual address
* space, they need to be kmapped separately for doing IO on the pages. The
* struct page (these bits with information) are always mapped into kernel
* address space...
*
* PG_hwpoison indicates that a page got corrupted in hardware and contains
* data with incorrect ECC bits that triggered a machine check. Accessing is
* not safe since it may cause another machine check. Don't touch!
