2011-02-23staging: Allow sharing xvmalloc for zram and zcacheNitin Gupta
Both zram and zcache use xvmalloc allocator. If xvmalloc is compiled separately for both of them, we will get linker error if they are both selected as "built-in". We can also get linker error regarding missing xvmalloc symbols if zram is not built. So, we now compile xvmalloc separately and export its symbols which are then used by both of zram and zcache.

2011-01-21Staging: zram: make ZRAM depends on SYSFSJerome Marchand
We can not configure zram device without sysfs anyway, so make zram depends on it. Signed-off-by: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-08-31Staging: zram: Replace ioctls with sysfs interfaceNitin Gupta
Creates per-device sysfs nodes in /sys/block/zram<id>/ Currently following stats are exported: - disksize - num_reads - num_writes - invalid_io - zero_pages - orig_data_size - compr_data_size - mem_used_total By default, disksize is set to 0. So, to start using a zram device, fist write a disksize value and then initialize device by writing any positive value to initstate. For example: # initialize /dev/zram0 with 50MB disksize echo 50*1024*1024 | bc > /sys/block/zram0/disksize echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/initstate When done using a disk, issue reset to free its memory by writing any positive value to reset node: echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset This change also obviates the need for 'rzscontrol' utility.

2010-06-18Staging: Rename ramzswap files to zramNitin Gupta
Related changes: - Modify revelant Kconfig and Makefile accordingly. - Change include filenames in code. - Remove dependency on CONFIG_SWAP in Kconfig as zram usage is no longer limited to swap disks.
