shmem: remove check for folio lock on writepage()
Patch series "tmpfs: add the option to disable swap", v2. I'm doing this work as part of future experimentation with tmpfs and the page cache, but given a common complaint found about tmpfs is the innability to work without the page cache I figured this might be useful to others. It turns out it is -- at least Christian Brauner indicates systemd uses ramfs for a few use-cases because they don't want to use swap and so having this option would let them move over to using tmpfs for those small use cases, see systemd-creds(1). To see if you hit swap: mkswap /dev/nvme2n1 swapon /dev/nvme2n1 free -h With swap - what we see today ============================= mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/data-tmpfs/5g-rand2 bs=1G count=5 free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.7Gi 2.6Gi 1.2Gi 2.2Gi 2.2Gi 1.2Gi Swap: 99Gi 2.8Gi 97Gi Without swap ============= free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.7Gi 387Mi 3.4Gi 2.1Mi 57Mi 3.3Gi Swap: 99Gi 0B 99Gi mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G -o noswap tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/data-tmpfs/5g-rand2 bs=1G count=5 free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 3.7Gi 2.6Gi 1.2Gi 2.3Gi 2.3Gi 1.1Gi Swap: 99Gi 21Mi 99Gi The mix and match remount testing ================================= # Cannot disable swap after it was first enabled: mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ mount -t tmpfs -o remount -o size=5G -o noswap tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ mount: /data-tmpfs: mount point not mounted or bad option. dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call. dmesg -c tmpfs: Cannot disable swap on remount # Remount with the same noswap option is OK: mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G -o noswap tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ mount -t tmpfs -o remount -o size=5G -o noswap tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ dmesg -c # Trying to enable swap with a remount after it first disabled: mount -t tmpfs -o size=5G -o noswap tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ mount -t tmpfs -o remount -o size=5G tmpfs /data-tmpfs/ mount: /data-tmpfs: mount point not mounted or bad option. dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call. dmesg -c tmpfs: Cannot enable swap on remount if it was disabled on first mount This patch (of 6): Matthew notes we should not need to check the folio lock on the writepage() callback so remove it. This sanity check has been lingering since linux-history days. We remove this as we tidy up the writepage() callback to make things a bit clearer.
