77 * Due to the asynchronous nature of the backends loading potentially
78 * _after_ the swap system has been activated, we have chokepoints
79 * on all frontswap functions to not call the backend until the backend
80 * has registered.
82 * Specifically when no backend is registered (nobody called
83 * frontswap_register_ops) all calls to frontswap_init (which is done via
84 * swapon -> enable_swap_info -> frontswap_init) are registered and remembered
85 * (via the setting of need_init bitmap) but fail to create tmem_pools. When a
86 * backend registers with frontswap at some later point the previous
87 * calls to frontswap_init are executed (by iterating over the need_init
88 * bitmap) to create tmem_pools and set the respective poolids. All of that is
89 * guarded by us using atomic bit operations on the 'need_init' bitmap.
91 * This would not guards us against the user deciding to call swapoff right as
92 * we are calling the backend to initialize (so swapon is in action).
93 * Fortunatly for us, the swapon_mutex has been taked by the callee so we are
94 * OK. The other scenario where calls to frontswap_store (called via
95 * swap_writepage) is racing with frontswap_invalidate_area (called via
96 * swapoff) is again guarded by the swap subsystem.
98 * While no backend is registered all calls to frontswap_[store|load|
99 * invalidate_area|invalidate_page] are ignored or fail.
101 * The time between the backend being registered and the swap file system
102 * calling the backend (via the frontswap_* functions) is indeterminate as
103 * frontswap_ops is not atomic_t (or a value guarded by a spinlock).
104 * That is OK as we are comfortable missing some of these calls to the newly
105 * registered backend.
107 * Obviously the opposite (unloading the backend) must be done after all
108 * the frontswap_[store|load|invalidate_area|invalidate_page] start
109 * ignorning or failing the requests - at which point frontswap_ops
110 * would have to be made in some fashion atomic.
