zram: factor out single stream compression
This is preparation patch to add multi stream support to zcomp.
Introduce struct zcomp_strm_single and a set of functions to manage
zcomp_strm stream access. zcomp_strm_single implements single compession
stream, same way as current zcomp implementation. This moves zcomp_strm
stream control and locking from zcomp, so compressing backend zcomp is not
aware of required locking.
Single and multi streams require different locking schemes. Minchan Kim
reported that spinlock-based locking scheme (which is used in multi stream
implementation) has demonstrated a severe perfomance regression for single
compression stream case, comparing to mutex-based. see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/18/16
The following set of functions added:
- zcomp_strm_single_find()/zcomp_strm_single_release()
find and release a compression stream, implement required locking
- zcomp_strm_single_create()/zcomp_strm_single_destroy()
create and destroy zcomp_strm_single
New ->strm_find() and ->strm_release() callbacks added to zcomp, which are
set to zcomp_strm_single_find() and zcomp_strm_single_release() during
initialisation. Instead of direct locking and zcomp_strm access from
zcomp_strm_find() and zcomp_strm_release(), zcomp now calls ->strm_find()
and ->strm_release() correspondingly.
