From: Gao Xiang hsiangkao@redhat.com Subject: mm, THP, swap: fix allocating cluster for swapfile by mistake
SWP_FS is used to make swap_{read,write}page() go through the filesystem, and it's only used for swap files over NFS. So, !SWP_FS means non NFS for now, it could be either file backed or device backed. Something similar goes with legacy SWP_FILE.
So in order to achieve the goal of the original patch, SWP_BLKDEV should be used instead.
FS corruption can be observed with SSD device + XFS + fragmented swapfile due to CONFIG_THP_SWAP=y.
I reproduced the issue with the following details:
Environment: QEMU + upstream kernel + buildroot + NVMe (2 GB)
Kernel config: CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NVME=y CONFIG_THP_SWAP=y
Some reproducable steps: mkfs.xfs -f /dev/nvme0n1 mkdir /tmp/mnt mount /dev/nvme0n1 /tmp/mnt bs="32k" sz="1024m" # doesn't matter too much, I also tried 16m xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -R -b $bs 0 $sz" -c "fdatasync" /tmp/mnt/sw xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -R -b $bs 0 $sz" -c "fdatasync" /tmp/mnt/sw xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -R -b $bs 0 $sz" -c "fdatasync" /tmp/mnt/sw xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -F -S 0 -b $bs 0 $sz" -c "fdatasync" /tmp/mnt/sw xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -R -b $bs 0 $sz" -c "fsync" /tmp/mnt/sw
mkswap /tmp/mnt/sw swapon /tmp/mnt/sw
stress --vm 2 --vm-bytes 600M # doesn't matter too much as well
Symptoms: - FS corruption (e.g. checksum failure) - memory corruption at: 0xd2808010 - segfault
