While I was doing zram testing, I found sometimes decompression failed
since the compression buffer was corrupted. With investigation, I found
below commit calls cond_resched unconditionally so it could make a
problem in atomic context if the task is reschedule.

We can fix this by removing the ZSMALLOC_PGTABLE_MAPPING feature (which
contains the offending calling code) from zsmalloc.
Even though this option showed some amount improvement(e.g., 30%) in
some arm32 platforms, it has been headache to maintain since it have
abused APIs[1](e.g., unmap_kernel_range in atomic context).
Since we are approaching to deprecate 32bit machines and already made
the config option available for only builtin build since v5.8, lastly it
has been not default option in zsmalloc, it's time to drop the option
for better maintenance.

the excess and return it to the allocator.

If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the

system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly

if there are a lot of transient processes.

If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for

|
long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
|
|
|
|
Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
|

(/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of

|
excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
|

no trimming is to occur.

This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default

help
|
|
Cleancache can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache
|
|
for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
|
|
(PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough
|
|
memory. So when the PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use
|
|
cleancache code to put the data contained in that page into
|
|
"transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
|
|
addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
|
|
time-varying size. And when a cleancache-enabled
|
|
filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
|
|
checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
|
|
the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
|
|
When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
|
|
Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
|
|
may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls
|
|
are reduced to a single pointer-compare-against-NULL resulting
|
|
in a negligible performance hit.

Frontswap is so named because it can be thought of as the opposite
|
|
of a "backing" store for a swap device. The data is stored into
|
|
"transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
|
|
addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
|
|
time-varying size. When space in transcendent memory is available,
|
|
a significant swap I/O reduction may be achieved. When none is
|
|
available, all frontswap calls are reduced to a single pointer-
|
|
compare-against-NULL resulting in a negligible performance hit
|
|
and swap data is stored as normal on the matching swap device.
|
|
|

If unsure, say Y to enable frontswap.

This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other

subsystems to allocate big physically-contiguous blocks of memory.

CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to

be allocated from it. This way, the kernel can use the memory for

pagecache and when a subsystem requests for contiguous area, the

allocated pages are migrated away to serve the contiguous request.

A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes

pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to

compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.

This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,

in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
|
|
reads, can also improve workload performance.

v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim. While these

interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,

they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential

configurations and workloads that exist.
