[PATCH v8 0/3] mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations

[PATCH v8 0/3] mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations

[Jianyue Wu]

This series splits folio LRU and swap cleanup into three steps:

  - move the page-cluster sysctl next to swap readahead in mm/swap_state.c
  - rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c after the swap-specific code moves out
  - move MM-internal reclaim declarations out of include/linux/swap.h

After this series, swap cache and swap-in readahead stay in mm/swap_state.c,
folio LRU helpers live in mm/folio.c, and MM-internal reclaim/workingset
declarations move from include/linux/swap.h to mm/internal.h (public LRU
helpers used outside mm/ remain in swap.h).

The first patch handles the swap-specific page-cluster state before the
file rename, so the rename commit only carries folio LRU code. The last
patch keeps the LRU helpers used outside mm/ in include/linux/swap.h and
moves the internal reclaim/workingset declarations to mm/internal.h.

[PATCH v8 1/3] mm/swap: colocate page-cluster sysctl with swap readahead

[Jianyue Wu]

page_cluster and the vm.page-cluster sysctl are only used by swap-in
readahead in swap_state.c. Move them out of swap.c together with
swap_readahead_setup(), and make page_cluster static to that file.

Rename swap_setup() while moving it as well. The helper is internal to
MM and now only sets up swap readahead defaults and its sysctl hook, so
the more specific name matches its reduced scope.

Call swap_readahead_setup() from swap_init() after moving it, keeping the
readahead defaults and sysctl registration with swap_state.c
initialization.

swap_setup() previously lived in mm/swap.c, which is built
unconditionally, so the vm.page-cluster sysctl was registered also on
CONFIG_SWAP=n kernels. After moving the setup into swap_state.c, which
is built only when CONFIG_SWAP is enabled, vm.page-cluster is no
longer registered there. The knob only tunes swap-in readahead and
had no effect without swap.

[PATCH v8 2/3] mm: rename swap.c to folio.c

[Jianyue Wu]

Rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c so the filename better matches
the code's main responsibility.

This keeps the implementation split from swap-specific code without
changing the published LRU helper interfaces.

Update MAINTAINERS and the remaining mm/swap.c documentation references
after the rename.

[PATCH v8 3/3] mm: move reclaim-internal declarations out of swap.h

[Jianyue Wu]

Keep include/linux/swap.h focused on swap-facing interfaces by moving
MM-internal reclaim and workingset declarations into mm/internal.h.

Leave the small set of LRU helper declarations that are used outside mm/
in swap.h so this cleanup does not need a new public header under
include/linux/.
