Why do you want this patch to be included? Where did you get it?
Comment 3 Marcin Mirosław 2011-07-25 18:43:42 UTC
Ad. "why" - because "zcache" in kernel-3.0 doesn't build properly and can't be used.
Ad. "where" - there are URL pasted in this bug. I've done cope and paste from www browser, aplied patch, and create diff (to have clean patch).
Comment 4 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2011-07-26 10:49:48 UTC
Next time please remember to post directly in bug report the build error. Thanks
Comment 5 Stratos Psomadakis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-07-29 11:02:52 UTC
I sent a mail upstream to check if the patch will be included in the next 3.0.1 -stable kernel. If so, there's no need to add it explicitly. If not, we'll add it for inclusion in the next genpatches release for linux-3.

@Pacho Ramos 

there's no build error - it just doesn't work without the patch:

Comment 7 Marcin Mirosław 2011-08-17 13:31:06 UTC
We have 3.0.2, i can't see any commit in zcache ( http://www.kernel.org/diff/diffview.cgi?file=/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/patch-3.0.2.bz2 ). Will be this patch added to gentoo patches?
Comment 8 Stratos Psomadakis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-17 17:56:46 UTC
Patch added to genpatches for 3.0.x -stable kernels (there will be a new genpatches release probably tomorrow, when Linux-3.0.3 will get released).

Thanks.

Fix in portage. Closing. Feel free to reopen if you still have an issue building zcache.

Thanks.
