So, a distribution may set it to say 4 and users won't have to go through any documentation just to create an additional zram device. This also makes its behavior similar to the usual ramdisk which also accepts default number of ramdisks (BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT) as kconfig option. >> >> Signed-off-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@xxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> drivers/staging/zram/Kconfig | 9 +++++++++ >> drivers/staging/zram/zram_drv.c | 13 ++++++++----- >> 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/staging/zram/Kconfig b/drivers/staging/zram/Kconfig >> index 3bec4db..ca31cb3 100644 >> --- a/drivers/staging/zram/Kconfig >> +++ b/drivers/staging/zram/Kconfig >> @@ -21,6 +21,15 @@ config ZRAM >> See zram.txt for more information. >> Project home: http://compcache.googlecode.com/ >> >> +config ZRAM_NUM_DEVICES >> + int "Default number of zram devices" >> + depends on ZRAM >> + range 1 32 >> + default 1 >> + help >> + Select default number of zram devices.
