linux.git/drivers/staging/zcache/Makefile, branch v3.0 Linux kernel source tree staging: Allow sharing xvmalloc for zram and zcache 2011-02-23T22:02:56+00:00 Nitin Gupta ngupta@vflare.org 2011-02-18T22:33:18+00:00 3c8bb7aab9ad84bce7d81878fda64d631089a88d Both zram and zcache use xvmalloc allocator. If xvmalloc is compiled separately for both of them, we will get linker error if they are both selected as "built-in". We can also get linker error regarding missing xvmalloc symbols if zram is not built. So, we now compile xvmalloc separately and export its symbols which are then used by both of zram and zcache.

There is a dependency on xvmalloc.* which in 2.6.37 resides
in drivers/staging/zram.  Should this move or disappear,
some Makefile/Kconfig changes will be required.
