Hello,
I've a v2:
-- squashed and re-order some of the patches;
-- run iozone with lockdep disabled.
=== quote ===
auto-compaction should not affect read-only tests, so we are interested
in write-only and read-write (mixed) tests, but I'll post complete test
stats:
iozone -t 3 -R -r 16K -s 60M -I +Z
ext4, 2g zram0 device, lzo, 4 compression streams max
test base auto-compact (compacted 67904 objs)
