Commit Message

Evan Green July 21, 2021, 9:40 p.m. UTC
Currently it's not possible to enable hibernation without also enabling
generic swap for a given swap area. These two use cases are not the
same. For example there may be users who want to enable hibernation,
but whose drives don't have the write endurance for generic swap
activities. Swap and hibernate also have different security/integrity
requirements, prompting folks to possibly set up something like block-level
integrity for swap and image-level integrity for hibernate. Keeping swap
and hibernate separate in these cases becomes not just a matter of
preference, but correctness.

Add a new SWAP_FLAG_NOSWAP that adds a swap region but refuses to allow
generic swapping to it. This region can still be wired up for use in
suspend-to-disk activities, but will never have regular pages swapped to
it. This flag will be passed in by utilities like swapon(8), usage would
probably look something like: swapon -o noswap /dev/sda2.

Swap regions with SWAP_FLAG_NOSWAP set will not appear in /proc/meminfo
under SwapTotal and SwapFree, since they are not usable as general swap.

Changes in v3:
 - Updated commit message with additional explanation [Andrew]

Changes in v2:
 - NOSWAP regions should not contribute to Swap stats in /proc/meminfo.
   [David]
 - Adjusted comment of SWAP_FLAG_NOSWAP [Pavel]
 - Note: Opted not to take Pavel's tag since enough has changed in this
   revision to warrant another look.
 - Call swap_entry_free() in swap_free to avoid NOSWAP leaks back into
   the general pool via swap_slots_cache [me].

Will patches to swapon and its manpage be prepared?

Just a minor comment, I'd call it rather SWAP_FLAG_HIBERNATE_ONLY and 
SWAP_FLAG_HIBERNATE_ONLY -- that calls the child by its name.

I think some other flags might not apply with that new flag set, right? 
For example, does SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE or SWP_AREA_DISCARD still have 
any meaning with the new flag being set?

We should most probably disallow enabling any flag that doesn't make any 
sense in combination.

Apart from that, I'd love to see a comment in here why the workaround 
suggested by Michal isn't feasible -- essentially a summary of what we 
discussed.

I had a quick glimpse and nothing jumed at me, no mm/swapfile.c expert, 
though :)

Yes, I'll work on that today. Thanks Andrew!

I went back and forth on this too. It seemed pretty close to toss-up
to me. I went with NOSWAP ultimately because it seemed more closely
tied to what the flag was actually doing, rather than building in my
one expected use case into the name. In some world years from now
where either hibernate has diverged, been deleted, or maybe some new
usage has been invented for swap space, the NOSWAP name felt like it
had a better chance of holding up. The argument is weak though, as
these features are pretty well cast in stone, and the likelihood of
any of those outcomes seems low. I can change it if you feel strongly,
but would probably keep it as-is otherwise.

Good point, I can send a followup patch for that. From my reading
SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD and SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE are still valid, since
the discard can be run at swapon() time. SWAP_FLAG_PREFER (specifying
the priority) doesn't make sense, and SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES never
kicks in because it's called at the cluster level. Hm, that sort of
seems like a bug that freed hibernate swap doesn't get discarded. I
can disallow it now as unsupported, but might send a patch to fix it
later.

Ah sorry, I had tried to clarify that in the commit text, but didn't
explicitly address the workaround. To summarize, the workaround keeps
generic swap out of your hibernate region... until hibernate time. But
once hibernate starts, a lot of swapping tends to happen when the
hiber-image is allocated. At this point the hibernate region is
eligible for general swap even with the workaround. The reasons I gave
for wanting to exclusively steer swap and hibernate are SSD write
wearing, different integrity solutions for swap vs hibernate, and our
own security changes that no-op out the swapon/swapoff syscalls after
init.

Just imagine technology Z popping up and using also the swap 
infrastructure. What would be the semantics of NOSWAP? With 
HIBERNATE_ONLY it's clear -- enable that device only for hibernation, 
nothing else.

But you raise a good point: if hibernation isn't even possible in a 
configuration (e.g., not configured into the kernel), we should simply 
reject that flag. So if hibernation would vanish at some point 
completely from the system, it would all be handled accordingly.

That would result in quite a consistent definition of 
SWAP_FLAG_HIBERNATE_ONLY IMHO.

Makes sense?

I'd actually enjoy if we'd have that logic in the introducing patch.

Might be worth fixing, indeed.

That would be nice to have in the patch description :)

Ok, I'll change the name, and reject the flag if hibernation is not enabled.

Sure, I'll add that as well and send out a v4 shortly.
