Implement support for storing page allocation tag references directly in the page flags instead of page extensions. sysctl.vm.mem_profiling boot parameter it extended to provide a way for a user to request this mode. Enabling compression eliminates memory overhead caused by page_ext and results in better performance for page allocations. However this mode will not work if the number of available page flag bits is insufficient to address all kernel allocations. Such condition can happen during boot or when loading a module. If this condition is detected, memory allocation profiling gets disabled with an appropriate warning. By default compression mode is disabled.

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 reStructuredText 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.
