[PATCHv6 4/6] zram: add multi stream functionality
From: Sergey Senozhatsky
Date: Fri Feb 21 2014 - 06:54:40 EST
This patch implements multi stream compression support.
Introduce struct zcomp_strm_multi and a set of functions to manage
zcomp_strm stream access. zcomp_strm_multi has a list of idle zcomp_strm
structs, spinlock to protect idle list and wait queue, making it possible
to perform parallel compressions.
The following set of functions added:
- zcomp_strm_multi_get()/zcomp_strm_multi_put()
get and put compression stream, implement required locking
- zcomp_strm_multi_create()/zcomp_strm_multi_destroy()
create and destroy zcomp_strm_multi
zcomp ->strm_get() and ->strm_put() callbacks are set during initialisation
to zcomp_strm_multi_get()/zcomp_strm_multi_put() correspondingly.
Each time zcomp issues a zcomp_strm_multi_get() call, the following set of
operations performed:
- spin lock strm_lock
- if idle list is not empty, remove zcomp_strm from idle list, spin
unlock and return zcomp stream pointer to caller
- if idle list is empty, current adds itself to wait queue. it will be
awaken by zcomp_strm_multi_put() caller.
zcomp_strm_multi_put():
- spin lock strm_lock
- add zcomp stream to idle list
- spin unlock, wake up sleeper
Minchan Kim reported that spinlock-based locking scheme has demonstrated a
severe perfomance regression for single compression stream case, comparing
to mutex-based (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16)

When only one compression stream available, mutex with spin on owner tends
to perform much better than frequent wait_event()/wake_up(). This is why
single stream implemented as a special case with mutex locking.
In order to compile this functionality ZRAM_MULTI_STREAM config option
required to be set, which will be introduced later.
