[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm, swap: remove swap slot cache
has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch.  Its filename is
     mm-swap-remove-swap-slot-cache.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-swap-remove-swap-slot-cache.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything
branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there every 2-3 working days

Subject: mm, swap: remove swap slot cache
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2025 02:02:11 +0800

Slot cache is no longer needed now, removing it and all related code.

- vm-scalability with: `usemem --init-time -O -y -x -R -31 1G`,
12G memory cgroup using simulated pmem as SWAP (32G pmem, 32 CPUs),
16 test runs for each case, measuring the total throughput:

                      Before (KB/s) (stdev)  After (KB/s) (stdev)
Random (4K):          424907.60 (24410.78)   414745.92  (34554.78)
Random (64K):         163308.82 (11635.72)   167314.50  (18434.99)
Sequential (4K, !-R): 6150056.79 (103205.90) 6321469.06 (115878.16)

The performance changes are below noise level.

- Build linux kernel with make -j96, using 4K folio with 1.5G memory
cgroup limit and 64K folio with 2G memory cgroup limit, on top of tmpfs,
12 test runs, measuring the system time:

                  Before (s) (stdev)  After (s) (stdev)
make -j96 (4K):   6445.69 (61.95)     6408.80 (69.46)
make -j96 (64K):  6841.71 (409.04)    6437.99 (435.55)

Similar to above, 64k mTHP case showed a slight improvement.

-	 *   -> drain_swap_slots_cache
-	 *
-	 * Hence the loop over current online cpu below could miss cpu that
-	 * is being brought online but not yet marked as online.
-	 * That is okay as we do not schedule and run anything on a
-	 * cpu before it has been marked online. Hence, we will not
-	 * fill any swap slots in slots cache of such cpu.
-	 * There are no slots on such cpu that need to be drained.
