77Date: August 2010
78Contact: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org>
79Description:
80 The notify_free file is read-only and specifies the number of
81 swap slot free notifications received by this device. These
51d8a7b0 82 notifications are sent to a swap block device when a swap slot
e98419c2

83 is freed. This statistic is applicable only when this disk is
84 being used as a swap disk.

97Description:
98 The orig_data_size file is read-only and specifies uncompressed
99 size of data stored in this disk. This excludes zero-filled
100 pages (zero_pages) since no memory is allocated for them.

106Description:
107 The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed
108 size of data stored in this disk. So, compression ratio can be
109 calculated using orig_data_size and this statistic.

115Description:
116 The mem_used_total file is read-only and specifies the amount
117 of memory, including allocator fragmentation and metadata
118 overhead, allocated for this disk. So, allocator space
119 efficiency can be calculated using compr_data_size and this
120 statistic.
