From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: zram: record accessed second zRam as swap is useful for small memory device. However, swap means those pages on zram are mostly cold pages due to VM's LRU algorithm. Especially, once init data for application are touched for launching, they tend to be not accessed any more and finally swapped out. zRAM can store such cold pages as compressed form but it's pointless to keep in memory. Better idea is app developers free them directly rather than remaining them on heap. This patch records last access time of each block of zram so that With upcoming zram memory tracking, it could help userspace developers to reduce memory footprint.
