Commitfc4eb486a5("selftests/zram: Skip max_comp_streams interface on newer kernel") added kernel_gte() to zram_lib.sh. The function uses the bash-specific [[ ... ]] conditional, but zram selftests source this file while running under /bin/sh. On systems where /bin/sh is dash, such as Debian, the following test fails: dash -c ' kernel_major=6; kernel_minor=1; major=6; minor=0 if [ $kernel_major -gt $major ]; then echo ok elif [[ $kernel_major -eq $major && $kernel_minor -ge $minor ]]; then echo ok fi' with: dash: 5: [[: not found Use separate POSIX test expressions joined by && instead.

zram: Compressed RAM based block devices ---------------------------------------- * Introduction The zram module creates RAM based block devices named /dev/zram<id> (<id> = 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. Some of the usecases include /tmp storage, use as swap disks, various caches under /var and maybe many more :) Statistics for individual zram devices are exported through sysfs nodes at /sys/block/zram<id>/ Kconfig required: CONFIG_ZRAM=y CONFIG_CRYPTO_LZ4=y CONFIG_ZSMALLOC=y ZRAM Testcases -------------- zram_lib.sh: create library with initialization/cleanup functions zram.sh: For sanity check of CONFIG_ZRAM and to run zram01 and zram02 Two functional tests: zram01 and zram02: zram01.sh: creates general purpose ram disks with ext4 filesystems zram02.sh: creates block device for swap Commands required for testing: - bc - dd - free - awk - mkswap - swapon - swapoff - mkfs/ mkfs.ext4 For more information please refer: kernel-source-tree/Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/zram.rst
