Subject: [PATCH] mm/zswap: validate dlen and normalize comp_ret on compression success
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 23:27:33 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261022232734.496064-1-suseendranb@google.com> (raw)

In zswap_compress(), dlen is only meaningful when compression succeeds
(!comp_ret), as compressors do not consistently set req->dlen on error
(e.g. zstd, 842, and qat set dlen = 0; lz4, lz4hc, lzo, lzo-rle,
deflate, and iaa leave dlen at PAGE_SIZE; hisi_zip sets dlen to the
hardware-reported produced bytes).

When !comp_ret and dlen == PAGE_SIZE with zswap writeback disabled,
zswap_compress() sets comp_ret to -EINVAL instead of -ENOSPC,
miscounting the page under reject_compress_fail instead of
reject_compress_poor.

When !comp_ret, set comp_ret = -ENOSPC if dlen == PAGE_SIZE, or
comp_ret = -EINVAL if WARN_ON_ONCE(!dlen || dlen > PAGE_SIZE). This
allows simplifying the failure check to 'if (comp_ret)' and dropping
the ternary assignment in the writeback-disabled path.

Fixes: dca4437a5861 ("mm/zswap: store <PAGE_SIZE compression failed page as-is")

Previously sent as [PATCH 2/2] of:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261021205626.3286270-3-suseendranb@google.com/

Changes since v1:
- Split from patch 1/2 (which is going through independently).
- Keep existing writeback-enabled behavior for comp_ret != 0.
- Normalize comp_ret under !comp_ret and check 'if (comp_ret)'.
