I have a Sipeed Lichee RV dock board which only has 512MB DDR, so memory optimizations such as swap on zram are helpful. As is seen in commitd0637c505f("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") and commitbd4c82c22c("mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after swapped out"), THP_SWAP can improve the swap throughput significantly. Enable THP_SWAP for RV64, testing the micro-benchmark which is introduced by commitd0637c505f("arm64: enable THP_SWAP for arm64") shows below numbers on the Lichee RV dock board: swp out bandwidth w/o patch: 66908 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests) swp out bandwidth w/ patch: 322638 bytes/ms (mean of 10 tests) Improved by 382%!

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.
