mm: entirely remove lru_add_drain in do_swap_page
We are doing a lot of redundant lru_add_drain() calls in do_swap_page(), especially for synchronous I/O devices. For example, the test program below currently ends up draining lru_cache 100% of the time: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int i; #define SIZE 100*1024*1024 while(1) { volatile int *p = mmap(0, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); for (int i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(int); i++) p[i] = i%64; madvise((void *)p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT); for (int i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(int); i++) p[i] = i%64; munmap(p, SIZE); } return 0; } Folio reuse now relies primarily on the exclusive hint, making lru_cache draining to drop the refcount in lru_cache largely irrelevant. For a kernel build with a minimal configuration running in a 1 GB memcg, this patch skips more than 43,000 redundant local LRU drains.
