[PATCH v3 1/2] mm/zswap: global lru and shrinker shared by all zswap_pools

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Fri Feb 16 2024 - 03:56:12 EST


Dynamic zswap_pool creation may create/reuse to have multiple
zswap_pools in a list, only the first will be current used.

Each zswap_pool has its own lru and shrinker, which is not
necessary and has its problem:

1. When memory has pressure, all shrinker of zswap_pools will
try to shrink its own lru, there is no order between them.

2. When zswap limit hit, only the last zswap_pool's shrink_work
will try to shrink its lru list. The rationale here was to
try and empty the old pool first so that we can completely
drop it. However, since we only support exclusive loads now,
the LRU ordering should be entirely decided by the order of
stores, so the oldest entries on the LRU will naturally be
from the oldest pool.

Anyway, having a global lru and shrinker shared by all zswap_pools
is better and efficient.
