since 2 years we are using zram[0] in our production networks and we love it. i like to kick out the package compcache which is very outdated and just use the mainline implementation. at the moment we are manually go into kernel_menuconfig and switch on:
General setup: ---> [*] Support for paging of anonymous memory (swap) Device Drivers ---> Staging drivers ---> [*] Compressed RAM block device support which means: CONFIG_FRONTSWAP is not set CONFIG_SWAP=y CONFIG_HIBERNATION is not set CONFIG_MTD_SWAP is not set CONFIG_ZRAM=y CONFIG_ZRAM_DEBUG is not set CONFIG_ZSMALLOC=y CONFIG_LZO_COMPRESS=y CONFIG_LZO_DECOMPRESS=y also we use our own rc-file, so we can do /etc/init.d/zram start|stop https://github.com/bittorf/kalua/blob/master/openwrt-addons/etc/init.d/zram IMHO it should be a menuconfig-entry in "base-system", because it is fundamental for all 16mb routers. What i need for baking a Makefile is a hint for a package which a) activates some symbols in kernel-config b) enforces building and loading of a kmodule c) has an rc-file I'am new to Make, so please help 8-) Also i like to have feedback.
