[PATCH] selftests/mm: Introduce a test program to assess swap entry allocation for thp_swapout - Linux-kselftest-mirror

20 Jun 2024

From: Barry Song v-songbaohua@oppo.com
Both Ryan and Chris have been utilizing the small test program to aid
in debugging and identifying issues with swap entry allocation. While
a real or intricate workload might be more suitable for assessing the
correctness and effectiveness of the swap allocation policy, a small
test program presents a simpler means of understanding the problem and
initially verifying the improvements being made.
Let's endeavor to integrate it into the self-test suite. Although it
presently only accommodates 64KB and 4KB, I'm optimistic that we can
expand its capabilities to support multiple sizes and simulate more
complex systems in the future as required.

+ * thp_swap_allocator_test
+ *
+ * The purpose of this test program is helping check if THP swpout
+ * can correctly get swap slots to swap out as a whole instead of
+ * being split. It randomly releases swap entries through madvise
+ * DONTNEED and do swapout on two memory areas: a memory area for
+ * 64KB THP and the other area for small folios. The second memory
+ * can be enabled by "-s".
+ * Before running the program, we need to setup a zRAM or similar
+ * swap device by:
+ *  echo lzo > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm
+ *  echo 64M > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
+ *  echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-2048kB/enabled
+ *  echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-64kB/enabled
+ *  mkswap /dev/zram0
+ *  swapon /dev/zram0
+ * The expected result should be 0% anon swpout fallback ratio w/ or
+ * w/o "-s".
