What: /sys/block/zram<id>/disksize
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The disksize file is read-write and specifies the disk size
which represents the limit on the *uncompressed* worth of data
that can be stored in this disk.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/initstate
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The disksize file is read-only and shows the initialization
state of the device.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/reset
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The disksize file is write-only and allows resetting the
device. The reset operation frees all the memory assocaited
with this device.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/num_reads
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The num_reads file is read-only and specifies the number of
reads (failed or successful) done on this device.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/num_writes
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The num_writes file is read-only and specifies the number of
writes (failed or successful) done on this device.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/invalid_io
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The invalid_io file is read-only and specifies the number of
non-page-size-aligned I/O requests issued to this device.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/notify_free
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The notify_free file is read-only and specifies the number of
swap slot free notifications received by this device. These
notifications are send to a swap block device when a swap slot
is freed. This statistic is applicable only when this disk is
being used as a swap disk.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/discard
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The discard file is read-only and specifies the number of
discard requests received by this device. These requests
provide information to block device regarding blocks which are
no longer used by filesystem.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/zero_pages
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The zero_pages file is read-only and specifies number of zero
filled pages written to this disk. No memory is allocated for
such pages.
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/orig_data_size
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The orig_data_size file is read-only and specifies uncompressed
size of data stored in this disk. This excludes zero-filled
pages (zero_pages) since no memory is allocated for them.
Unit: bytes
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/compr_data_size
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed
size of data stored in this disk. So, compression ratio can be
calculated using orig_data_size and this statistic.
Unit: bytes
What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_used_total
Date: August 2010
Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
Description:
The mem_used_total file is read-only and specifies the amount
of memory, including allocator fragmentation and metadata
overhead, allocated for this disk. So, allocator space
efficiency can be calculated using compr_data_size and this
statistic.
Documentation: Add newline at end-of-file to files lacking one This patch simply adds a newline character at end-of-file to those files in Documentation/ that currently lack one. This is done for a few different reasons: A) It's rather annoying when you do "cat some_file.txt" that your prompt/cursor ends up at the end of the last line of output rather than on a new line. B) Some tools that process files line-by-line may get confused by the lack of a newline on the last line. C) The "\ No newline at end of file" line in diffs annoys me for some reason. So, let's just add the missing newline once and for all. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
