Patch series "zram I/O path cleanups and fixups", v3. This series cleans up the zram I/O path, and fixes the handling of synchronous I/O to the underlying device in the writeback_store function or for > 4K PAGE_SIZE systems. The fixes are at the end, as I could not fully reason about them being safe before untangling the callchain. This patch (of 17): read_from_bdev_sync is currently only compiled for non-4k PAGE_SIZE, which means it won't be built with the most common configurations. Replace the ifdef with a check for the PAGE_SIZE in an if instead. The check uses an extra symbol and IS_ENABLED to allow the compiler to eliminate the dead code, leading to the same generated code size: text data bss dec hex filename 16709 1428 12 18149 46e5 drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.o.old 16709 1428 12 18149 46e5 drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.o.new Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230411171459.567614-1-hch@lst.de Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230411171459.567614-2-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
