[PATCH 4/4] Set initial disksize to some default value

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, we set initial disksize as 0, which forces
user to write some value to corresponding zram device's
sysfs node, before the device can be used. Now, we avoid
this step by providing some default size initially.

To change the disksize, user must:
 - Reset disk.
	Ex: echo 1 > /sys/block/zram0/reset
(NOTE: disksize is set to the default value after reset)

 - Set new disksize.
	Ex: echo $((256*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
