Subject: zram: export the number of available comp streams
I've been asked several very simple questions:
a) How can I ensure that zram uses (or used) several compression
streams?
b) What is the current number of comp streams (how much memory
does zram *actually* use for compression streams, if there are
more than one stream)?
zram, indeed, does not provide any info and does not answer these
questions. Reading from `max_comp_streams' let to estimate only
theoretical comp streams memory consumption, which assumes that zram will
allocate max_comp_streams. However, it's possible that the real number of
compression streams will never reach that max value, due to various
reasons, e.g. max_comp_streams is too high, etc.
The patch adds `avail_streams' column to the /sys/block/zram<id>/mm_stat
device file. For a single compression stream backend it's always 1, for a
multi stream backend - it shows the actual ->avail_strm value.
The number of allocated compression streams answers several
questions:
a) the current `level of concurrency' that the device has
experienced
b) the amount of memory used by compression streams (by multiplying
the `avail_streams' column value, ->buffer size and algorithm's
specific scratch buffer size; the last are easy to find out,
unlike `avail_streams').
