Creates virtual block devices called /dev/zramX (X = 0, 1, ...).
|
|
Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in memory
|
|
itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides
|
|
good amounts of memory savings.
|
|
|
|
It has several use cases, for example: /tmp storage, use as swap
|
|
disks and maybe many more.

|
|
With incompressible page, there is no memory saving to keep it
|
|
in memory. Instead, write it out to backing device.
|
|
For this feature, admin should set up backing device via
|
|
/sys/block/zramX/backing_dev.
|
|
|
|
With /sys/block/zramX/{idle,writeback}, application could ask
|
|
idle page's writeback to the backing device to save in memory.

See Documentation/blockdev/zram.txt for more information.
