The way the surplus donation logic is structured isn't great. There are two separate paths for starting/increasing donations and decreasing them making the logic harder to follow and is prone to unnecessary behavior differences. In preparation for improved donation handling, this patch restructures the code so that * All donors - new, increasing and decreasing - are funneled through the same code path. * The target donation calculation is factored into hweight_after_donation() which is called once from the same spot for all possible donors. * Actual inuse adjustment is factored into trasnfer_surpluses(). This change introduces a few behavior differences - e.g. donation amount reduction now uses the max usage of the recent three periods just like new and increasing donations, and inuse now gets adjusted upwards the same way it gets downwards. These differences are unlikely to have severely negative implications and the whole logic will be revamped soon. This patch also removes two tracepoints. The existing TPs don't quite fit the new implementation. A later patch will update and reinstate them. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> |

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.
