From 6a233e0de08728b14d58af3f423c1cc5d14a60c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: meganz009 Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2025 09:49:30 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] zram: add max_pages param to recompression commit 34efe1c3b688944d9817a5faaab7aad870182c59 upstream. Introduce "max_pages" param to recompress device attribute which sets an upper limit on the number of entries (pages) zram attempts to recompress (in this particular recompression call). S/W recompression can be quite expensive so limiting the number of pages recompress touches can be quite helpful.
