[PATCHv4 3/4] zram: support multi compressing buffers

From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Wed Feb 12 2014 - 14:43:43 EST


1) Extend zcomp zcomp_create() with `num_strm' parameter.
`num_strm' limits the number of zcomp_strm structs in compression
backend's idle list (max buffers).

2) Introduce zram device attribute max_comp_streams to show and
store current device's zcomp max number of zcomp streams (num_strm).

Usage example:
echo 4 > /sys/block/zram0/max_comp_streams

set max_comp_streams to 4

cat /sys/block/zram0/max_comp_streams

show current max_comp_streams (default value is 1).

iozone -t -T -R -l 3 -u 3 -r 16K -s 60M -I +Z
(write tests. ext4, lzo, each test performed on newly created
zram0 device)

test max_comp_streams 1 max_comp_streams 3
