Depending on device usage 81 scenario it may account a) the number of pages freed because 82 of swap slot free notifications or b) the number of pages freed 83 because of REQ_DISCARD requests sent by bio. The former ones 84 are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot is freed, which 85 implies that this disk is being used as a swap disk. The latter 86 ones are sent by filesystem mounted with discard option, 87 whenever some data blocks are getting discarded. 88 89What: /sys/block/zram<id>/zero_pages 90Date: August 2010 91Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> 92Description: 93 The zero_pages file is read-only and specifies number of zero 94 filled pages written to this disk. No memory is allocated for 95 such pages. 96 97What: /sys/block/zram<id>/orig_data_size 98Date: August 2010 99Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> 100Description: 101 The orig_data_size file is read-only and specifies uncompressed 102 size of data stored in this disk. This excludes zero-filled 103 pages (zero_pages) since no memory is allocated for them. 104 Unit: bytes 105 106What: /sys/block/zram<id>/compr_data_size 107Date: August 2010 108Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> 109Description: 110 The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed 111 size of data stored in this disk. So, compression ratio can be 112 calculated using orig_data_size and this statistic. 113 Unit: bytes 114 115What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_used_total 116Date: August 2010 117Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> 118Description: 119 The mem_used_total file is read-only and specifies the amount 120 of memory, including allocator fragmentation and metadata 121 overhead, allocated for this disk. So, allocator space 122 efficiency can be calculated using compr_data_size and this 123 statistic. 124 Unit: bytes 125 126What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_used_max 127Date: August 2014 128Contact: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> 129Description: 130 The mem_used_max file is read/write and specifies the amount 131 of maximum memory zram have consumed to store compressed data. 132 For resetting the value, you should write "0". Otherwise, 133 you could see -EINVAL. 134 Unit: bytes 135 136What: /sys/block/zram<id>/mem_limit 137Date: August 2014 138Contact: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> 139Description: 140 The mem_limit file is read/write and specifies the maximum 141 amount of memory ZRAM can use to store the compressed data. The 142 limit could be changed in run time and "0" means disable the 143 limit. No limit is the initial state. Unit: bytes 144
