Do not shuffle a folio in the deactivation paths if it is already in the
oldest generation. This reduces the LRU lock contention.
Before this patch, the contention is reproducible by FIO, e.g.,
fio -filename=/dev/nvme1n1p2 -direct=0 -thread -size=1024G \
-rwmixwrite=30 --norandommap --randrepeat=0 -ioengine=sync \
-bs=4k -numjobs=400 -runtime=25000 --time_based \
-group_reporting -name=mglru
98.96%--_raw_spin_lock_irqsave
folio_lruvec_lock_irqsave
|
--98.78%--folio_batch_move_lru
|
--98.63%--deactivate_file_folio
mapping_try_invalidate
invalidate_mapping_pages
invalidate_bdev
blkdev_common_ioctl
blkdev_ioctl
After this patch, deactivate_file_folio() bails out early without taking
the LRU lock.
A side effect is that a folio can be left at the head of the oldest
generation, rather than the tail. If reclaim happens at the same time, it
cannot reclaim this folio immediately. Since there is no known
correlation between truncation and reclaim, this side effect is considered
insignificant.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
