mm: zswap: remove shrink from zpool interface

Now that all three zswap backends have removed their shrink code, it is
no longer necessary for the zpool interface to include shrink/writeback
endpoints.

zpool: clean out dead code

There is a lot of provision for flexibility that isn't actually needed or
used. Zswap (the only zpool user) always passes zpool_ops with an .evict
method set. The backends who reclaim only do so for zswap, so they can
also directly call zpool_ops without indirection or checks.

Finally, there is no need to check the retries parameters and bail with
-EINVAL in the reclaim function, when that's called just a few lines below
with a hard-coded 8. There is no need to duplicate the evictable and
sleep_mapped attrs from the driver in zpool_ops.

zpool API since the commit 12d79d64bfd3 ("mm/zpool: update zswap to use

mm/zbud: reuse unbuddied[0] as buddied in zbud_pool

Patch series "Cleanups for zbud", v2.

This series contains just cleanups to save some possible memory in
zbud_pool and avoid exporting any unneeded zbud API. More details can be
found in the respective changelogs

This patch (of 2):

Since commit 9d8c5b5284e4 ("mm: zbud: fix condition check on allocation
size"), zbud_pool.unbuddied[0] is always unused. We can reuse it as
buddied field to save some possible memory.

# 479305fd 25-Jun-2015 Dan Streetman <ddstreet@ieee.org>

zpool: remove zpool_evict()

Remove zpool_evict() helper function. As zbud is currently the only
zpool implementation that supports eviction, add zpool and zpool_ops
references to struct zbud_pool and directly call zpool_ops->evict(zpool,
handle) on eviction.

Currently zpool provides the zpool_evict helper which locks the zpool
list lock and searches through all pools to find the specific one
matching the caller, and call the corresponding zpool_ops->evict
function. However, this is unnecessary, as the zbud pool can simply
keep a reference to the zpool that created it, as well as the zpool_ops,
and directly call the zpool_ops->evict function, when it needs to evict
a page. This avoids a spinlock and list search in zpool for each
eviction.

mm/zpool: add name argument to create zpool

Currently the underlay of zpool: zsmalloc/zbud, do not know who creates
them. There is not a method to let zsmalloc/zbud find which caller they
belong to.

Now we want to add statistics collection in zsmalloc. We need to name the
debugfs dir for each pool created. The way suggested by Minchan Kim is to
use a name passed by caller(such as zram) to create the zsmalloc pool.

This patch adds an argument `name' to zs_create_pool() and other related

mm/zbud: init user ops only when it is needed

When zbud is initialized through the zpool wrapper, pool->ops which
points to user-defined operations is always set regardless of whether it
is specified from the upper layer. This causes zbud_reclaim_page() to
iterate its loop for evicting pool pages out without any gain.

This patch sets the user-defined ops only when it is needed, so that
zbud_reclaim_page() can bail out the reclamation loop earlier if there
is no user-defined operations specified.

zbud: avoid accessing last unused freelist

For now, there are NCHUNKS of 64 freelists in zbud_pool, the last
unbuddied[63] freelist linked with all zbud pages which have free chunks
of 63. Calculating according to context of num_free_chunks(), our max
chunk number of unbuddied zbud page is 62, so none of zbud pages will be
added/removed in last freelist, but still we will try to find an unbuddied
zbud page in the last unused freelist, it is unneeded.

This patch redefines NCHUNKS to 63 as free chunk number in one zbud page,
hence we can decrease size of zpool and avoid accessing the last unused
freelist whenever failing to allocate zbud from freelist in zbud_alloc.

Change the type of the zbud_alloc() size param from unsigned int to

Technically, this should not make any difference, as the zbud
implementation already restricts the size to well within either type's
limits; but as zsmalloc (and kmalloc) use size_t, and zpool will use
size_t, this brings the size parameter type in line with zsmalloc/zpool.

# 4e2e2770 10-Jul-2013 Seth Jennings <sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

zbud: add to mm/

zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages. It
is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page.
While this design limits storage density, it has simple and
deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher
density approach when reclaim will be used.

zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs
in a single memory page called a "zbud page". The first buddy is "left
justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is
"right justified" at the end of the zbud page. The benefit is that if
either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever
slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest
possible free region within the zbud page.

zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density. The ratio of
zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1. This ensures that zbud can
never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the
uncompressed zpages would have used on their own.

This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used
by zcache in the driver/staging tree. The rewrite was necessary to
remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained
throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be
used by zsmalloc and others.

This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.
