The patch titled Subject: zsmalloc: introduce zs_can_compact() function has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was zsmalloc-introduce-zs_can_compact-function.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: zsmalloc: introduce zs_can_compact() function This function checks if class compaction will free any pages. Rephrasing -- do we have enough unused objects to form at least one ZS_EMPTY page and free it. It aborts compaction if class compaction will not result in any (further) savings. EXAMPLE (this debug output is not part of this patch set): -- class size -- number of allocated objects -- number of used objects -- max objects per zspage -- pages per zspage -- estimated number of pages that will be freed [..] class-512 objs:544 inuse:540 maxobj-per-zspage:8 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-512 compaction is useless. break class-496 objs:660 inuse:570 maxobj-per-zspage:33 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:2 class-496 objs:627 inuse:570 maxobj-per-zspage:33 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:1 class-496 objs:594 inuse:570 maxobj-per-zspage:33 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-496 compaction is useless. break class-448 objs:657 inuse:617 maxobj-per-zspage:9 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:4 class-448 objs:648 inuse:617 maxobj-per-zspage:9 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:3 class-448 objs:639 inuse:617 maxobj-per-zspage:9 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:2 class-448 objs:630 inuse:617 maxobj-per-zspage:9 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:1 class-448 objs:621 inuse:617 maxobj-per-zspage:9 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-448 compaction is useless. break class-432 objs:728 inuse:685 maxobj-per-zspage:28 pages-per-zspage:3 zspages-to-free:1 class-432 objs:700 inuse:685 maxobj-per-zspage:28 pages-per-zspage:3 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-432 compaction is useless. break class-416 objs:819 inuse:705 maxobj-per-zspage:39 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:2 class-416 objs:780 inuse:705 maxobj-per-zspage:39 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:1 class-416 objs:741 inuse:705 maxobj-per-zspage:39 pages-per-zspage:4 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-416 compaction is useless. break class-400 objs:690 inuse:674 maxobj-per-zspage:10 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:1 class-400 objs:680 inuse:674 maxobj-per-zspage:10 pages-per-zspage:1 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-400 compaction is useless. break class-384 objs:736 inuse:709 maxobj-per-zspage:32 pages-per-zspage:3 zspages-to-free:0 ... class-384 compaction is useless. break [..] Every "compaction is useless" indicates that we saved CPU cycles. class-512 has 544 object allocated 540 objects used 8 objects per-page Even if we have a ALMOST_EMPTY zspage, we still don't have enough room to migrate all of its objects and free this zspage; so compaction will not make a lot of sense, it's better to just leave it as is.
