Previously, the readahead window was strictly followed by EROFS decompression strategy in order to minimize extra memory footprint. However, it could become inefficient if just reading the partial requested data for much big LZ4 pclusters and the upcoming LZMA implementation. Let's try to request the leading data in a pcluster without triggering memory reclaiming instead for the LZ4 approach first to boost up 100% randread of large big pclusters, and it has no real impact on low memory scenarios. It also introduces a way to expand read lengths in order to decompress the whole pcluster, which is useful for LZMA since the algorithm itself is relatively slow and causes CPU bound, but LZ4 is not.

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.
