* zram/xvmalloc: Close 32byte hole on 64bit CPUsRobert Jennings2011-02-041-5/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | By swapping the total_pages statistic with the lock we close a hole in the structure for 64-bit CPUs. Signed-off-by: Robert Jennings <rcj@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* zram/vmalloc: Correct tunings to enable use with 64K pagesRobert Jennings2011-02-041-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xvmalloc will not currently function with 64K pages. Newly allocated pages will be inserted at an offset beyond the end of the first-level index. This tuning is needed to properly size the allocator for 64K pages. The default 3 byte shift results in a second level list size which can not be indexed using the 64 bits of the flbitmap in the xv_pool structure. The shift must increase to 4 bytes between second level list entries to fit the size of the first level bitmap. Here are a few statistics for structure sizes on 32- and 64-bit CPUs with 4KB and 64KB page sizes. bits_per_long 32 64 64 page_size 4,096 4,096 65,535 xv_align 4 8 8 fl_delta 3 3 4 num_free_lists 508 508 4,094 xv_pool size 4,144b 8,216b 66,040b per object overhead 32 64 64 zram struct 0.5GB disk 512KB 1024KB 64KB This patch maintains the current tunings for 4K pages, adds an optimal sizing for 64K pages and adds a safe tuning for any other page sizes.

* Staging: Rename ramzswap files to zramNitin Gupta2010-06-181-0/+86
Related changes: - Modify revelant Kconfig and Makefile accordingly. - Change include filenames in code. - Remove dependency on CONFIG_SWAP in Kconfig as zram usage is no longer limited to swap disks.
