Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and confused developers about the expected behavior. For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name. Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN. For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion in xen repo. Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page. Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up will come in follow-up patches.

Change frontswap single pointer to a singly linked list of frontswap implementations. Update Xen tmem implementation as register no longer returns anything. Frontswap only keeps track of a single implementation; any implementation that registers second (or later) will replace the previously registered implementation, and gets a pointer to the previous implementation that the new implementation is expected to pass all frontswap functions to if it can't handle the function itself. However that method doesn't really make much sense, as passing that work on to every implementation adds unnecessary work to implementations; instead, frontswap should simply keep a list of all registered implementations and try each implementation for any function. Most importantly, neither of the two currently existing frontswap implementations in the kernel actually do anything with any previous frontswap implementation that they replace when registering. This allows frontswap to successfully manage multiple implementations by keeping a list of them all.

Currently, cleancache_register_ops returns the previous value of cleancache_ops to allow chaining. However, chaining, as it is implemented now, is extremely dangerous due to possible pool id collisions. Suppose, a new cleancache driver is registered after the previous one assigned an id to a super block. If the new driver assigns the same id to another super block, which is perfectly possible, we will have two different filesystems using the same id. No matter if the new driver implements chaining or not, we are likely to get data corruption with such a configuration eventually. This patch therefore disables the ability to override cleancache_ops altogether as potentially dangerous. If there is already cleancache driver registered, all further calls to cleancache_register_ops will return EBUSY. Since no user of cleancache implements chaining, we only need to make minor changes to the code outside the cleancache core.

Commit 10a7a077 ("xen: tmem: enable Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module") allows the tmem module to be loaded any time. For this work the frontswap API had to be able to asynchronously to call tmem_frontswap_init before or after the swap image had been set. That was added in git commit 905cd0e1 ("mm: frontswap: lazy initialization to allow tmem backends to build/run as modules"). Which means we could do this (The common case): modprobe tmem [so calls frontswap_register_ops, no ->init] modifies tmem_frontswap_poolid = -1 swapon /dev/xvda1 [__frontswap_init, calls -> init, tmem_frontswap_poolid is < 0 so tmem hypercall done] Or the failing one: swapon /dev/xvda1 [calls __frontswap_init, sets the need_init bitmap] modprobe tmem [calls frontswap_register_ops, -->init calls, finds out tmem_frontswap_poolid is 0, does not make a hypercall. Later in the module_init, sets tmem_frontswap_poolid=-1] Which meant that in the failing case we would not call the hypercall to initialize the pool and never be able to make any frontswap backend calls. Moving the frontswap_register_ops after setting the tmem_frontswap_poolid fixes it. Signed-off-by: NKonrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NBob Liu <bob.liu@oracle.com>

Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module. Xen self-ballooning and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by module parameters. Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy initialization patches are not present. If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated. Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.

This patch provides a shim between the kernel-internal cleancache API (see Documentation/mm/cleancache.txt) and the Xen Transcendent Memory ABI (see http://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem). Xen tmem provides "hypervisor RAM" as an ephemeral page-oriented pseudo-RAM store for cleancache pages, shared cleancache pages, and frontswap pages. Tmem provides enterprise-quality concurrency, full save/restore and live migration support, compression and deduplication.
