Patch series "mm/zswap: dstmem reuse optimizations and cleanups", v5. The problem this series tries to optimize is that zswap_load() and zswap_writeback_entry() have to malloc a temporary memory to support !zpool_can_sleep_mapped(). We can avoid it by reusing the percpu crypto_acomp_ctx->dstmem, which is also used by zswap_store() and protected by the same percpu crypto_acomp_ctx->mutex. This patch (of 5): In the !zpool_can_sleep_mapped() case such as zsmalloc, we need to first copy the entry->handle memory to a temporary memory, which is allocated using kmalloc. Obviously we can reuse the per-compressor dstmem to avoid allocating every time, since it's percpu-compressor and protected in percpu mutex.

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.
