The patch titled Subject: zram: cut trailing newline in algorithm name has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is zram-cut-trailing-newline-in-algorithm-name.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/zram-cut-trailing-newline-in-algorithm-name.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/zram-cut-trailing-newline-in-algorithm-name.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky.work@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: zram: cut trailing newline in algorithm name Supplied sysfs values sometimes contain new-line symbols (echo vs. echo -n), which we also copy as a compression algorithm name. it works fine when we lookup for compression algorithm, because we use sysfs_streq() which takes care of new line symbols. however, it doesn't look nice when we print compression algorithm name if zcomp_create() failed: zram: Cannot initialise LXZ compressing backend cut trailing new-line, so the error string will look like zram: Cannot initialise LXZ compressing backend we also now can replace sysfs_streq() in zcomp_available_show() with strcmp().
