Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-coregrafted
Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich: - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g. SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI abstractions - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly * tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core: MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32 kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF

+ select ZSMALLOC
+ help
+ Creates virtual block devices called /dev/zramX (X = 0, 1, ...).
+ Pages written to these disks are compressed and stored in memory
+ itself. These disks allow very fast I/O and compression provides
+ good amounts of memory savings.
+
+ It has several use cases, for example: /tmp storage, use as swap
+ disks and maybe many more.
+
+ See Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/zram.rst for more information.

+ bool "Write back incompressible or idle page to backing device"
+ depends on ZRAM
+ help
+ This lets zram entries (incompressible or idle pages) be written
+ back to a backing device, helping save memory.
+ For this feature, admin should set up backing device via
+ /sys/block/zramX/backing_dev.
+

+
+config ZRAM_MULTI_COMP
+ bool "Enable multiple compression streams"
+ depends on ZRAM
+ help
+ This will enable multi-compression streams, so that ZRAM can
+ re-compress pages using a potentially slower but more effective
+ compression algorithm. Note, that IDLE page recompression
+ requires ZRAM_TRACK_ENTRY_ACTIME.
