jsmith8042:

I've gave a try to "trunk" build from 30 DEC on WL500GPv1 (brcm47xx - legacy). It generally works but swap-related things appear to be broken in trunk. At least some builds before this date also known to suffer from same problem.

To reproduce, easiest way:

  1. Install trunk on WL500GP V1.
  2. Install zram-swap script (opkg update; opkg install zram-swap).
  3. Observe what happens.
  4. Try to enable swap on zram manually to see what happens.

Result:

  • When install of zram-swap script finishes, swap activation fails with the following: block: failed to swapon /dev/zram0 (-1)
  • Exactly same issue if I try to mkswap & swapon manually or use my own custom scripting to bring up zram swap, etc (these were known to work earlier/in other systems).

I can see "zram" module is loaded, accepted all parameters, mkswap succeeds, but swapon always fails with obscure -1 error. Same for attempt to swapoff, etc. Seems that "block" thing backfires or so?
