Subject: [RFC][PATCHv2 5/8] zsmalloc: introduce zs_can_compact() function
Date: Fri,  5 Jun 2015 21:03:55 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1433505838-23058-6-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1433505838-23058-1-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>

This function checks if class compaction will free any pages.
Rephrasing -- do we have enough unused objects to form at least
one ZS_EMPTY page and free it. It aborts compaction if class
compaction will not result in any (further) savings.

EXAMPLE (this debug output is not part of this patch set):

-- class size
-- number of allocated objects
-- number of used objects,
-- estimated number of pages that will be freed

 class-1104 objs:605   inuse:599   maxobjs-per-page:11 pages-tofree:0
 class-1104: Compaction is useless
[..]

Every "Compaction is useless" indicates that we saved some CPU cycles.

class-1104 has
	605	object allocated
	599	objects used
	11	objects per-page

Even if we have a ALMOST_EMPTY zspage, we still don't have enough room to
migrate all of its objects and free this zspage; so compaction will not
make a lot of sense here, it's better to just leave it as is.
