Any way to release memory after files getting removed from the zram devices?

I deleted all files in the zram devices, how to release the memory back to OS?

~ sudo du -sh /mnt/zram2

76K     /mnt/zram2

~ zramctl --output-all

What file system did you use for the /dev/zram2? — Lahwaacz (talk) 13:16, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

~ df -h -T

/dev/zram2     ext2       31G  4.2G   27G   14% /mnt/zram2

I am using zram generator and I also submited an issue here: https://github.com/systemd/zram-generator/issues/220 Scybhe (talk) 01:48, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
