[PATCH mm/zswap 0/2] Fix the compatibility of zsmalloc and zswap

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



patch #1 add a flag to zpool, then zswap used to determine if zpool
drivers such as zbud/z3fold/zsmalloc will enter an atomic context after
mapping. the difference between zbud/z3fold and zsmalloc is that zsmalloc
requires an atomic context that since its map function holds a
preempt-disabled, but zbud/z3fold don't require an atomic context. so
patch #2 set flag sleep_mapped to true indicates that zbud/z3fold can
sleep after mapping. zsmalloc didin't support sleep after mapping, so not
set that flag to true.

Tian Tao (2):
  mm/zswap: add the flag can_sleep_mapped
  mm: set the sleep_mapped to true for zbud and z3fold
