[PATCH v2 0/2] mm: fix node reclaim swappiness handling

[PATCH v2 0/2] mm: fix node reclaim swappiness handling

[Ridong]

From: Ridong <chenridong@xiaomi.com>

The per-node proactive reclaim interface
(/sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/reclaim) accepts a swappiness parameter,
but it is silently ignored when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled. The root cause
is that sc_swappiness() has separate implementations for CONFIG_MEMCG and
!CONFIG_MEMCG, and the latter never checks proactive_swappiness.

Patch 1 moves mem_cgroup_swappiness() and vm_swappiness out of the public
include/linux/swap.h into the mm-private mm/swap.h, and makes the helper
handle both CONFIG_MEMCG and !CONFIG_MEMCG in a single inline function.
This is a prerequisite for unifying sc_swappiness().

Patch 2 consolidates sc_swappiness() into a single definition that works
regardless of CONFIG_MEMCG, fixing the node reclaim swappiness bug.

---

v1 -> v2:
 - Move mem_cgroup_swappiness() and vm_swappiness to mm/swap.h instead of
   include/linux/memcontrol.h. Suggested by Barry Song.
 - Correct fix tag for patch 2.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260711091157.306070-1-ridong.chen@linux.dev/

[PATCH v2 1/2] memcg: move mem_cgroup_swappiness and vm_swappiness to mm/swap.h

[Ridong]

From: Ridong Chen <chenridong@xiaomi.com>

The per-memcg swappiness knob is v1-only; v2 always uses global
vm_swappiness and ignores the per-cgroup field.

Both mem_cgroup_swappiness() and vm_swappiness are only used within
mm/ (memcontrol.c, memcontrol-v1.c, vmscan.c), so move them out of the
public include/linux/swap.h into the mm-private mm/swap.h. This keeps
unrelated declarations out of include/linux/swap.h.

Guard memcg->swappiness with CONFIG_MEMCG_V1 as well, so v2-only
kernels drop the unused field.

No functional change for v1; v2-only kernels drop the unused field.

[PATCH v2 2/2] mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter

[Ridong]

From: Ridong Chen <chenridong@xiaomi.com>

sc_swappiness() had two separate definitions depending on
CONFIG_MEMCG. The !CONFIG_MEMCG variant simply returned
vm_swappiness, ignoring the proactive_swappiness value passed
through scan_control. This caused the swappiness parameter
written to /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/reclaim to have no
effect when CONFIG_MEMCG is disabled.

Fix this by consolidating sc_swappiness() into a single definition
that checks sc->proactive_swappiness first, then falls back to
mem_cgroup_swappiness() which already handles both CONFIG_MEMCG
and !CONFIG_MEMCG.

Before fix (swappiness=max ignored, mostly file pages reclaimed):

    # cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
    60
    # cat /proc/vmstat | grep pgsteal
    pgsteal_kswapd 0
    pgsteal_direct 0
    pgsteal_khugepaged 0
    pgsteal_proactive 1840
    pgsteal_anon 25
    pgsteal_file 1815
    # echo "64M swappiness=max" > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/reclaim
    # cat /proc/vmstat | grep pgsteal
    pgsteal_kswapd 0
    pgsteal_direct 0
    pgsteal_khugepaged 0
    pgsteal_proactive 18013
    pgsteal_anon 337
    pgsteal_file 17676

After fix (swappiness=max honored, anon pages reclaimed as expected):

    # cat /proc/vmstat | grep pgsteal
    pgsteal_kswapd 0
    pgsteal_direct 0
    pgsteal_khugepaged 0
    pgsteal_proactive 0
    pgsteal_anon 0
    pgsteal_file 0
    # echo "64M swappiness=max" > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/reclaim
    # cat /proc/vmstat | grep pgsteal
    pgsteal_kswapd 0
    pgsteal_direct 0
    pgsteal_khugepaged 0
    pgsteal_proactive 16283
    pgsteal_anon 16283
    pgsteal_file 0

By the way, in get_scan_count(), it seems we still reclaim file pages
without swap space, even if swappiness=max (SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY) is
set.

This behavior appears to contradict the semantics of
SWAPPINESS_ANON_ONLY, which probably needs a fix as well.

Thanks,
Qi

Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] mm: vmscan: fix node reclaim ignoring swappiness parameter

[Tao Cui]

Hi Ridong,

Reproduced the bug and verified the fix in a QEMU x86_64 guest with
CONFIG_MEMCG disabled. Global vm.swappiness pinned to 1, then:

    echo "64M swappiness=<x>" > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/reclaim

  swappiness= | buggy (anon/file)   | patched (anon/file)
  ----------- | -------------------- | --------------------
  max         |      0  /  16385     |  16292  /  0
  200         |      2  /  16384     |  16837  /  0
  1           |      0  /  16386     |      0  /  16467

Unpatched ignores the swappiness arg (always file); patched honors it.
Matches the commit message.
