[PATCH v1 18/19] zsmalloc: migrate tail pages in zspage

Minchan Kim
2016-03-11T07:30:22Z

This patch enables tail page migration of zspage.

In this point, I tested zsmalloc regression with micro-benchmark
which does zs_malloc/map/unmap/zs_free for all size class
in every CPU(my system is 12) during 20 sec.

It shows 1% regression which is really small when we consider
the benefit of this feature and realworkload overhead(i.e.,
most overhead comes from compression).
