zsmalloc: consolidate zs_pool's migrate_lock and size_class's locks
Currently, zsmalloc has a hierarchy of locks, which includes a pool-level migrate_lock, and a lock for each size class. We have to obtain both locks in the hotpath in most cases anyway, except for zs_malloc. This exception will no longer exist when we introduce a LRU into the zs_pool for the new writeback functionality - we will need to obtain a pool-level lock to synchronize LRU handling even in zs_malloc. In preparation for zsmalloc writeback, consolidate these locks into a single pool-level lock, which drastically reduces the complexity of synchronization in zsmalloc. We have also benchmarked the lock consolidation to see the performance effect of this change on zram. First, we ran a synthetic FS workload on a server machine with 36 cores (same machine for all runs), using fs_mark -d ../zram1mnt -s 100000 -n 2500 -t 32 -k before and after for btrfs and ext4 on zram (FS usage is 80%). Here is the result (unit is file/second): With lock consolidation (btrfs): Average: 13520.2, Median: 13531.0, Stddev: 137.5961482019028 Without lock consolidation (btrfs): Average: 13487.2, Median: 13575.0, Stddev: 309.08283679298665 With lock consolidation (ext4): Average: 16824.4, Median: 16839.0, Stddev: 89.97388510006668 Without lock consolidation (ext4) Average: 16958.0, Median: 16986.0, Stddev: 194.7370021336469 As you can see, we observe a 0.3% regression for btrfs, and a 0.9% regression for ext4. This is a small, barely measurable difference in my opinion. For a more realistic scenario, we also tries building the kernel on zram. Here is the time it takes (in seconds): With lock consolidation (btrfs): real Average: 319.6, Median: 320.0, Stddev: 0.8944271909999159 user Average: 6894.2, Median: 6895.0, Stddev: 25.528415540334656 sys Average: 521.4, Median: 522.0, Stddev: 1.51657508881031 Without lock consolidation (btrfs): real Average: 319.8, Median: 320.0, Stddev: 0.8366600265340756 user Average: 6896.6, Median: 6899.0, Stddev: 16.04057355583023 sys Average: 520.6, Median: 521.0, Stddev: 1.140175425099138 With lock consolidation (ext4): real Average: 320.0, Median: 319.0, Stddev: 1.4142135623730951 user Average: 6896.8, Median: 6878.0, Stddev: 28.621670111997307 sys Average: 521.2, Median: 521.0, Stddev: 1.7888543819998317 Without lock consolidation (ext4) real Average: 319.6, Median: 319.0, Stddev: 0.8944271909999159 user Average: 6886.2, Median: 6887.0, Stddev: 16.93221781102523 sys Average: 520.4, Median: 520.0, Stddev: 1.140175425099138 The difference is entirely within the noise of a typical run on zram. This hardly justifies the complexity of maintaining both the pool lock and the class lock. In fact, for writeback, we would need to introduce yet another lock to prevent data races on the pool's LRU, further complicating the lock handling logic. IMHO, it is just better to collapse all of these into a single pool-level lock.
