Subject: [merged mm-stable] zram-permit-reclaim-in-zstd-custom-allocator.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2025 22:13:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250317051350.9AF02C4CEEC@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: zram: permit reclaim in zstd custom allocator
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
zram-permit-reclaim-in-zstd-custom-allocator.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: zram: permit reclaim in zstd custom allocator
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 11:03:25 +0900
When configured with pre-trained compression/decompression dictionary
support, zstd requires custom memory allocator, which it calls internally
from compression()/decompression() routines. That means allocation from
atomic context (either under entry spin-lock, or per-CPU local-lock or
both). Now, with non-atomic zram read()/write(), those limitations are
relaxed and we can allow direct and indirect reclaim.
