[$] Modernizing swapping: the end of the swap map

✇LWN

The first installment in this series introduced several data structures in the kernel's swap subsystem and described work to replace some of those with a new "swap table" structure. The work did not stop there, though; there is more modernization of the swap subsystem queued for an upcoming development cycle, and even more for multiple kernel releases after that. Once that work is done, the swap subsystem will be both simpler and faster than it is now.
