debug_stat sysfs is read-only and represents various debugging data that zram developers may need. This file is not meant to be used by anyone else: its content is not documented and will change any time w/o any notice. Therefore, the output of debug_stat file contains a version string. To avoid any confusion, we will increase the version number every time we modify the output. At the moment this file exports only one value -- the number of re-compressions, IOW, the number of times compression fast path has failed. This stat is temporary any will be useful in case if any per-cpu compression streams regressions will be reported.

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.
