Allow zram to recompress (using secondary compression streams) pages. Re-compression algorithms (we support up to 3 at this stage) are selected via recomp_algorithm: echo "algo=zstd priority=1" > /sys/block/zramX/recomp_algorithm Please read documentation for more details. We support several recompression modes: 1) IDLE pages recompression is activated by `idle` mode echo "type=idle" > /sys/block/zram0/recompress 2) Since there may be many idle pages user-space may pass a size threshold value (in bytes) and we will recompress pages only of equal or greater size: echo "threshold=888" > /sys/block/zram0/recompress 3) HUGE pages recompression is activated by `huge` mode echo "type=huge" > /sys/block/zram0/recompress 4) HUGE_IDLE pages recompression is activated by `huge_idle` mode echo "type=huge_idle" > /sys/block/zram0/recompress [senozhatsky@chromium.org: we should always zero out err variable in recompress loop[ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20221110143423.3250790-1-senozhatsky@chromium.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20221109115047.2921851-5-senozhatsky@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Cc: Alexey Romanov <avromanov@sberdevices.ru> Cc: Nhat Pham <nphamcs@gmail.com> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Cc: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
