zram: Compressed RAM based block devices ---------------------------------------- * Introduction The zram module creates RAM based block devices named /dev/zram ( = 0, 1, ...). Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in memory itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides good amounts of memory savings. Some of the usecases include /tmp storage, use as swap disks, various caches under /var and maybe many more :) Statistics for individual zram devices are exported through sysfs nodes at /sys/block/zram/ Kconfig required: CONFIG_ZRAM=y CONFIG_CRYPTO_LZ4=y CONFIG_ZPOOL=y CONFIG_ZSMALLOC=y ZRAM Testcases -------------- zram_lib.sh: create library with initialization/cleanup functions zram.sh: For sanity check of CONFIG_ZRAM and to run zram01 and zram02 Two functional tests: zram01 and zram02: zram01.sh: creates general purpose ram disks with ext4 filesystems zram02.sh: creates block device for swap Commands required for testing: - bc - dd - free - awk - mkswap - swapon - swapoff - mkfs/ mkfs.ext4 For more information please refer: kernel-source-tree/Documentation/blockdev/zram.txt ed'>master net-next plumbingsTobias Klauser

sh_eth: rename EESIPR bits
Since the commit b0ca2a21f769 ("sh_eth: Add support of SH7763 to sh_eth") the *enum* declaring the EESIPR bits (interrupt mask) went out of sync with the *enum* declaring the EESR bits (interrupt status) WRT bit naming and formatting. I'd like to restore the consistency by using EESIPR as the bit name prefix, renaming the *enum* to EESIPR_BIT, and (finally) renaming the bits according to the available Renesas SH77{34|63} manuals; additionally, reconstruct couple names using the EESR bit declaration above...
