staging: zcache: delete it

2013-08-12T22:07:49Z

zcache is obsolete and not used anymore, Bob Liu has rewritten it and is submitting it for inclusion through the main -mm tree, as it should have been done in the first place... Cc: Bob Liu Cc: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk Cc: Kyungmin Park Cc: Wanpeng Li Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: zcache: enable zcache to be built/loaded as a module

2013-05-01T00:04:01Z

Allow zcache to be built/loaded as a module. Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy initialization patches are not present. Zsmalloc support has not yet been merged into zcache but, once merged, could now easily be selected via a module_param. If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated. Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.

staging: zcache: rename ramster to zcache

2013-01-18T21:43:44Z

[V2: no code changes, patchset now generated via git format-patch -M] In staging, rename ramster to zcache The original zcache in staging was a "demo" version, and this new zcache is a significant rewrite. While certain disagreements were being resolved, both "old zcache" and "new zcache" needed to reside in the staging tree simultaneously. In order to minimize code change and churn, the newer version of zcache was temporarily merged into the "ramster" staging driver which, prior to that, had at one time heavily leveraged the older version of zcache. So, recently, "new zcache" resided in the ramster directory. Got that? No? Sorry, temporary political compromises are rarely pretty. The older version of zcache is no longer being maintained and has now been removed from the staging tree. So now the newer version of zcache can rightfully reclaim sole possession of the name "zcache". FYI, this [PATCH 2/5] is simply a "git mv" generated by "git format-patch -M".
