[PATCHv2 4/8] zram: Introduce recompress sysfs knob

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

 



Allow zram to recompress (using secondary compression streams)
pages. We support three modes:

1) IDLE pages recompression is activated by `idle` mode

	echo idle > /sys/block/zram0/recompress

2) Since there may be many idle pages user-space may pass a size
watermark value and we will recompress IDLE pages only of equal
or greater size:

	echo 888 > /sys/block/zram0/recompress

3) HUGE pages recompression is activated by `huge` mode

	echo huge > /sys/block/zram0/recompress

4) HUGE_IDLE pages recompression is activated by `huge_idle` mode

	echo huge_idle > /sys/block/zram0/recompress
