└─>3:1 compression allocator (z3fold) (DEPRECATED)
In linux kernel since version 6.1.112 (release Date: 2024-09-30)
Deprecated and scheduled for removal in a few cycles. If you have
a good reason for using Z3FOLD over ZSMALLOC, please contact
linux-mm@kvack.org and the zswap maintainers.
A special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages.
It is designed to store up to three compressed pages per physical
page. It is a ZBUD derivative so the simplicity and determinism are
still there.
