Subject: Re: [PATCHv4 14/17] zsmalloc: make zspage lock preemptible

So for zsmalloc I (usually) write some simple testing code which is
triggered via sysfs (device attr) and that is completely reproducible,
so that I compares apples to apples. In this particular case I just
have a loop that creates objects (we don't need to compress or decompress
anything, zsmalloc doesn't really care)
- echo 1 > /sys/ ... / test_prepare
for (sz = 32; sz < PAGE_SIZE; sz += 64) {
for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++) {
ent->handle = zs_malloc(zram->mem_pool, sz)
list_add(ent)
}
}
And now I just `perf stat` writes:
- perf stat echo 1 > /sys/ ... / test_exec_old
list_for_each_entry
zs_map_object(ent->handle, ZS_MM_RO);
zs_unmap_object(ent->handle)
list_for_each_entry
dst = zs_map_object(ent->handle, ZS_MM_WO);
memcpy(dst, tmpbuf, ent->sz)
zs_unmap_object(ent->handle)
- perf stat echo 1 > /sys/ ... / test_exec_new
list_for_each_entry
dst = zs_obj_read_begin(ent->handle, loc);
zs_obj_read_end(ent->handle, dst);
list_for_each_entry
zs_obj_write(ent->handle, tmpbuf, ent->sz);
- echo 1 > /sys/ ... / test_finish
free all handles and ent-s
The nice part is that we don't depend on any of the upper layers, we
don't even need to compress/decompress anything; we allocate objects
of required sizes and memcpy static data there (zsmalloc doesn't have
any opinion on that) and that's pretty much it.

Yeah, would be great.
