Historically (pre-2.5), the inode shrinker used to reclaim only empty inodes and skip over those that still contained page cache. This caused problems on highmem hosts: struct inode could put fill lowmem zones before the cache was getting reclaimed in the highmem zones. To address this, the inode shrinker started to strip page cache to facilitate reclaiming lowmem. However, this comes with its own set of problems: the shrinkers may drop actively used page cache just because the inodes are not currently open or dirty - think working with a large git tree. It further doesn't respect cgroup memory protection settings and can cause priority inversions between containers. Nowadays, the page cache also holds non-resident info for evicted cache pages in order to detect refaults. We've come to rely heavily on this data inside reclaim for protecting the cache workingset and driving swap behavior. We also use it to quantify and report workload health through psi. The latter in turn is used for fleet health monitoring, as well as driving automated memory sizing of workloads and containers, proactive reclaim and memory offloading schemes. The consequences of dropping page cache prematurely is that we're seeing subtle and not-so-subtle failures in all of the above-mentioned scenarios, with the workload generally entering unexpected thrashing states while losing the ability to reliably detect it. To fix this on non-highmem systems at least, going back to rotating inodes on the LRU isn't feasible. We've tried (commita76cf1a474("mm: don't reclaim inodes with many attached pages")) and failed (commit69056ee6a8("Revert "mm: don't reclaim inodes with many attached pages"")). The issue is mostly that shrinker pools attract pressure based on their size, and when objects get skipped the shrinkers remember this as deferred reclaim work. This accumulates excessive pressure on the remaining inodes, and we can quickly eat into heavily used ones, or dirty ones that require IO to reclaim, when there potentially is plenty of cold, clean cache around still. Instead, this patch keeps populated inodes off the inode LRU in the first place - just like an open file or dirty state would. An otherwise clean and unused inode then gets queued when the last cache entry disappears. This solves the problem without reintroducing the reclaim issues, and generally is a bit more scalable than having to wade through potentially hundreds of thousands of busy inodes. Locking is a bit tricky because the locks protecting the inode state (i_lock) and the inode LRU (lru_list.lock) don't nest inside the irq-safe page cache lock (i_pages.xa_lock). Page cache deletions are serialized through i_lock, taken before the i_pages lock, to make sure depopulated inodes are queued reliably. Additions may race with deletions, but we'll check again in the shrinker. If additions race with the shrinker itself, we're protected by the i_lock: if find_inode() or iput() win, the shrinker will bail on the elevated i_count or I_REFERENCED; if the shrinker wins and goes ahead with the inode, it will set I_FREEING and inhibit further igets(), which will cause the other side to create a new instance of the inode instead.
