It doesn't handle zero-filled pages well > currently. When you first posted your patchset I took a quick look at ramster and it looked like your patchset should work for ramster also. However I didn't actually run ramster to try it so there may be a bug. If it doesn't work, I would very much appreciate a patch. > - Ramster DebugFS counters are exported in /sys/kernel/mm/, but zcache/frontswap/cleancache > all are exported in /sys/kernel/debug/, should we unify them? That would be great. > - If ramster also should move DebugFS counters to a single file like > zcache do? Sure! I am concerned about Konrad's patches adding debug.c as they add many global variables. They are only required when ZCACHE_DEBUG is enabled so they may be ok. If not, adding ramster variables to debug.c may make the problem worse. > If you confirm these issues are make sense to fix, I will start coding. ;-) That would be great. Note that I have a how-to for ramster here: https://oss.oracle.com/projects/tmem/dist/files/RAMster/HOWTO-120817 If when you are testing you find that this how-to has mistakes, please let me know. Or feel free to add the (corrected) how-to file as a patch in your patchset. Thanks very much, Wanpeng, for your great contributions! (Ric, since you have expressed interest in ramster, if you try it and find corrections to the how-to file above, your input would be very much appreciated also!)
