This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests/zram: Skip max_comp_streams interface on newer kernel to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-zram-skip-max_comp_streams-interface-on-ne.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e163373eb0baeb0fa6957ea23e21c1810c3c822e Author: Yang Xu <xuyang2018.jy@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jan 27 17:11:35 2022 +0800 selftests/zram: Skip max_comp_streams interface on newer kernel [ Upstream commit fc4eb486a59d70bd35cf1209f0e68c2d8b979193 ] Since commit 43209ea2d17a ("zram: remove max_comp_streams internals"), zram has switched to per-cpu streams. Even kernel still keep this interface for some reasons, but writing to max_comp_stream doesn't take any effect. So skip it on newer kernel ie 4.7. The code that comparing kernel version is from xfstests testsuite ext4/053.
