Patch series "zsmalloc: fine-grained fullness and new compaction algorithm", v4. Existing zsmalloc page fullness grouping leads to suboptimal page selection for both zs_malloc() and zs_compact(). This patchset reworks zsmalloc fullness grouping/classification. Additinally it also implements new compaction algorithm that is expected to use less CPU-cycles (as it potentially does fewer memcpy-s in zs_object_copy()). Test (synthetic) results can be seen in patch 0003. This patch (of 4): This optimization has no effect. It only ensures that when a zspage was added to its corresponding fullness list, its "inuse" counter was higher or lower than the "inuse" counter of the zspage at the head of the list. The intention was to keep busy zspages at the head, so they could be filled up and moved to the ZS_FULL fullness group more quickly. However, this doesn't work as the "inuse" counter of a zspage can be modified by obj_free() but the zspage may still belong to the same fullness list. So, fix_fullness_group() won't change the zspage's position in relation to the head's "inuse" counter, leading to a largely random order of zspages within the fullness list. For instance, consider a printout of the "inuse" counters of the first 10 zspages in a class that holds 93 objects per zspage: ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY: 36 67 68 64 35 54 63 52 As we can see the zspage with the lowest "inuse" counter is actually the head of the fullness list. Remove this pointless "optimisation".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
