`notify_free' device attribute accounts the number of slot free
notifications and internally represents the number of zram_free_page()
calls. Slot free notifications are sent only when device is used as a
swap device, hence `notify_free' is used only for swap devices. Since
f4659d8e62 (zram: support REQ_DISCARD) ZRAM handles yet another one
free notification (also via zram_free_page() call) -- REQ_DISCARD
requests, which are sent by a filesystem, whenever some data blocks are
discarded. However, there is no way to know the number of notifications
in the latter case.
Use `notify_free' to account the number of pages freed by
zram_bio_discard() and zram_slot_free_notify(). Depending on usage
scenario `notify_free' represents:
a) the number of pages freed because of slot free notifications, which is
equal to the number of swap_slot_free_notify() calls, so there is no
behaviour change
b) the number of pages freed because of REQ_DISCARD notifications

What: /sys/block/zram<id>/notify_free
|
|
Date: August 2010
|
|
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
|
|
Description:
|
|
The notify_free file is read-only. Depending on device usage
|
|
scenario it may account a) the number of pages freed because
|
|
of swap slot free notifications or b) the number of pages freed
|
|
because of REQ_DISCARD requests sent by bio. The former ones
|
|
are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot is freed, which
|
|
implies that this disk is being used as a swap disk. The latter
|
|
ones are sent by filesystem mounted with discard option,
|
|
whenever some data blocks are getting discarded.
