[PATCH 0/3][linux-next] ramzswap: bug fixes and some cleanups

[Nitin Gupta]

ramzswap driver creates virtual block devices which
can be used (only) as swap disks. Pages swapped to these
disks are compressed and stored in memory itself.
Project home: http://code.google.com/p/compcache/

These patches apply to linux-next.

Nitin Gupta (3):
  use lock for 64-bit stats
  flush block device before reset
  set block size to PAGE_SIZE and some cleanups

[PATCH 1/3] use lock for 64-bit stats

[Nitin Gupta]

64-bit stats corruption was observed when ramzswap was
used on SMP systems. To prevent this, use separate spinlock
to protect these stats.

Eventually, these will be converted to per-cpu counters
if this driver finds use on large scale systems and this
locking is found to affect scalability.

I think I complained about this before: the names are too generic and 
could collide with core kernel code. I think they ought to be called 
ramzsawp_stat*().

I somehow missed this point. I will rename these to rzs_stat*()
('rzs_' prefix is used for other one-liner functions too).

[PATCH 1/3][resend] use lock for 64-bit stats

[Nitin Gupta]

64-bit stats corruption was observed when ramzswap was
used on SMP systems. To prevent this, use separate spinlock
to protect these stats.

Also, replace stat_*() with rzs_stat*() to avoid possible
conflict with core kernel code.

Eventually, these will be converted to per-cpu counters
if this driver finds use on large scale systems and this
locking is found to affect scalability.

Make sure we flush block device before freeing all metadata
during reset ioctl.

[PATCH 3/3] set block size to PAGE_SIZE and some cleanups

[Nitin Gupta]

ramzswap block size needs to be set to PAGE_SIZE
to avoid receiving any unaligned block I/O (happens
during swapon time). These unaligned access produce
unncessary I/O errors, scaring users.

Also included some minor cleanups.

[PATCH 3/3][resend] set block size to PAGE_SIZE and some cleanups

[Nitin Gupta]

[replace stat_*() with rzs_stat*()]
---

ramzswap block size needs to be set to PAGE_SIZE
to avoid receiving any unaligned block I/O (happens
during swapon time). These unaligned access produce
unncessary I/O errors, scaring users.

Also included some minor cleanups.

Such as?

Could you break this into 2 patches, one the block size stuff, and the
other the cleanups?  Remember, 1 patch does 1 thing.

I thought large number of patches is not desirable, so I merged lot
of stuff in one. I will resend 'v2' patches with proper breakup.

Large numbers of patches is not only desirable, it is encouraged!  Bring
them on, I get patch series all the time that start out [00/34] and
that's just fine.

And actually, doing things in small chunks is better if a problem is
found, as smaller patches are easier to review, and 'git bisect' makes
it trivial to narrow in on a specific patch.

thanks,
