Subject: [PATCH] zcache: initialize module properly when zcache=FOO is given
Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2013 16:49:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372258142-7019-1-git-send-email-mhocko@suse.cz> (raw)

835f2f51 (staging: zcache: enable zcache to be built/loaded as a module)
introduced in 3.10-rc1 has introduced a bug for zcache=FOO module
parameter processing.

zcache_comp_init return code doesn't agree with crypto_has_comp which
uses 1 for the success unlike zcache_comp_init which uses 0. This
causes module loading failure even if the given algorithm is supported:
[    0.815330] zcache: compressor initialization failed
