Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] mm/swapfile: release swap info when swap device is unpluged

This series patch try to fix the problem that the resources
corresponding to swap are not effectively released when
the swap partition disk is hot-pluged.

1/2: Extract operations of resource release in the swapoff process.
2/2: release swap info when swap device is unpluged

This is a second version, which addressed some comments:
1. turn first patch into a two patch series. The first does the
code movement with no functional changes and the second does
the actual fix.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mm/swapfile: Extract operations of resource release in the swapoff process

In order to realize the interface reuse in the swapoff resource
release process, some of the operations are abstracted
into separate interfaces.

Only code movement, no functional modifications and changes.

del_useless_swap_info():
Remove specific swap_info_struct from swap_active_head and
update total_swap_pages.

release_swap_info_memory():
Clear the corresponding resources of swap_info_struct.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] mm/swapfile: release swap info when swap device is unpluged

When the swap partition is mounted through the swapon command,
the kernel will create the swap_info_struct data structure
and initialize it, and save it in the swap_info global array.
When the swap partition is no longer in use, the disk is
unloaded through the swapoff command.

However, if the disk is pulled out after swapon, an error will
occur when swapoff the disk, causing the swap_info_struct
data structure to remain in the kernel and cannot be cleared.

This patch identifies which disks are no longer available
by adding a traversal operation for swap_active_head available
swap partitions in the swapon and swapoff processes,
so as to clear the above data structures and
release the corresponding resources.

Example:
[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s
[root@localhost ~]# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 1.1T 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 600M 0 part /boot/efi
├─sda2 8:2 0 1G 0 part /boot
└─sda3 8:3 0 1.1T 0 part
├─root 253:0 0 70G 0 lvm /
├─swap 253:1 0 4G 0 lvm
└─home 253:2 0 1T 0 lvm /home
nvme0n1 259:0 0 3.6T 0 disk
└─nvme0n1p1 259:5 0 60G 0 part
[root@localhost ~]# swapon /dev/nvme0n1p1
[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/nvme0n1p1 partition 62914556 0 -2
[root@localhost ~]# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:d8:00.0/remove
[root@localhost ~]# lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 1.1T 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 600M 0 part /boot/efi
├─sda2 8:2 0 1G 0 part /boot
└─sda3 8:3 0 1.1T 0 part
├─root 253:0 0 70G 0 lvm /
├─swap 253:1 0 4G 0 lvm
└─home 253:2 0 1T 0 lvm /home
[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s

/dev/nvme0n1p1 partition 62914556 0 -2
[root@localhost ~]# swapoff /dev/nvme0n1p1
swapoff: /dev/nvme0n1p1: swapoff failed: No such file or directory
[root@localhost ~]# swapoff -a
[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s
Filename Type Size Used Priority
/dev/nvme0n1p1 partition 62914556 0 -2

In the swapoff command, the device is acquired in the following ways,
but the device has been unplugged at this time, causing the "victim"
acquisition to fail, thus returning an error directly.
And the invalid swap_info_struct cannot be effectively released.

pathname = getname(specialfile);
if (IS_ERR(pathname))
return PTR_ERR(pathname);

victim = file_open_name(pathname, O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE, 0);
err = PTR_ERR(victim);
if (IS_ERR(victim))
goto out;

In order to solve the above problems, by adding traversal of
swap_avail_heads (available swap partitions) in the swapoff
and swapon processes,
find the swap_info_struct whose disk partition has been
unplugged, and release resources.

The reason why the judgment of unavailable swap information is also
added to the swapon process is that the swapoff is executed by the
user, and the timing is uncontrollable.
The system supports swapon multiple disks, and the unavailable swap
can be deleted at the same time as swapon is mounted.

Sorry, but this is simply broken. We can't just do d_path magic
here. That being said the problem is real, and I think the right
answer is to offer a swapoff variant that doesn't need to open the
underlying device or file, but useѕ some kind of handle. I'm just
not sure what would be a good handle here.

When swap device is unplugged, the swap_file->f_path.dentry will be in the
d_unlinked() status. Could we use it to detect the problem instead? IMHO, we
can found the unplugged swap devices this way and further get the right swap
device to swapoff through comparing the swap device name with @specialfile.
Or am I miss something?

Using handle sounds like a good idea too. :) But can the above solution be acceptable?
