Subject: [merged mm-stable] zram-unify-and-harden-algo-priority-params-handling.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2026 17:40:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260329004100.70992C4CEF7@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: zram: unify and harden algo/priority params handling
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
zram-unify-and-harden-algo-priority-params-handling.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: unify and harden algo/priority params handling
Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2026 17:42:49 +0900
We have two functions that accept algo= and priority= params -
algorithm_params_store() and recompress_store(). This patch unifies and
hardens handling of those parameters.
There are 4 possible cases:
- only priority= provided [recommended]
We need to verify that provided priority value is
within permitted range for each particular function.
- both algo= and priority= provided
We cannot prioritize one over another. All we should
do is to verify that zram is configured in the way
that user-space expects it to be. Namely that zram
indeed has compressor algo= setup at given priority=.
- only algo= provided [not recommended]
We should lookup priority in compressors list.
- none provided [not recommended]
Just use function's defaults.
