[RFC PATCH V3] zram:calculate available memory when zram is used

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

 



From: wangyong <wang.yong12@xxxxxxxxxx>

When zram is used, available+Swap free memory is obviously bigger than we
actually can use, because zram can compress memory by compression
algorithm and zram compressed data will occupy memory too.

So, we can count the compression ratio of zram in the kernel. The space
will be saved by zram and other swap device are calculated as follows:
zram[swapfree - swapfree * compress ratio] + swapdev[swapfree]
We can evaluate the available memory of the whole system as:
MemAvailable+zram[swapfree - swapfree * compress ratio]+swapdev[swapfree]

Add an entry to the /proc/meminfo file, returns swap will save space.
Which name is more appropriate is still under consideration.
There are several alternative names: SwapAvailable, SwapSaved,
SwapCompressible, Which is better?

Adding new entries has little effect on user program, since parsers
usually parse by keywords

Changes from v2:
*Add interface description document
*Other mistakes and problems fix

Changes from v1:
*Use a new interface to return memory savings when using swap devices
*Zram add min_compr_ratio attr
