+Tag Compression for Memory Tagging Extension (MTE)
+==================================================
+
+This document describes the algorithm used to compress memory tags used by the
+ARM Memory Tagging Extension (MTE).
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+MTE assigns tags to memory pages: for 4K pages those tags occupy 128 bytes
+(256 4-bit tags each corresponding to a 16-byte MTE granule), for 16K pages -
+512 bytes, for 64K pages - 2048 bytes. By default, MTE carves out 3.125% (1/16)
+of the available physical memory to store the tags.
+
+When MTE pages are saved to swap, their tags need to be stored in the kernel
+memory. If the system swap is used heavily, these tags may take a substantial
+portion of the physical memory. To reduce memory waste, ``CONFIG_ARM64_MTE_COMP``
+allows the kernel to store the tags in compressed form.
+
+Implementation details
+======================
+
+The algorithm attempts to compress an array of ``MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE``
+tag bytes into a byte sequence that can be stored in an 8-byte pointer. If that
+is not possible, the data is stored uncompressed.
+
+Tag manipulation and storage
+----------------------------
+
+Tags for swapped pages are stored in an XArray that maps swap entries to 63-bit
+values (see ``arch/arm64/mm/mteswap.c``). Bit 0 of these values indicates how
+their contents should be treated:
+
+ - 0: value is a pointer to an uncompressed buffer allocated with kmalloc()
+   (always the case if ``CONFIG_ARM64_MTE_COMP=n``) with the highest bit set
+   to 0;
+ - 1: value contains compressed data.
+
+``arch/arm64/include/asm/mtecomp.h`` declares the following functions that
+manipulate with tags:
+
+- mte_compress() - compresses the given ``MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE``-byte ``tags``
+  buffer into a pointer;
+- mte_decompress() - decompresses the tags from a pointer;
+- mte_is_compressed() - returns ``true`` iff the pointer passed to it should be
+  treated as compressed data.
+
+Tag compression
+---------------
+
+The compression algorithm is a variation of RLE (run-length encoding) and works
+as follows (we will be considering 4K pages and 128-byte tag buffers, but the
+same approach scales to 16K and 64K pages):
+
+1. The input array of 128 (``MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE``) bytes is transformed into
+   tag ranges (two arrays: ``r_tags[]`` containing tag values and ``r_sizes[]``
+   containing range lengths) by mte_tags_to_ranges(). Note that
+   ``r_sizes[]`` sums up to 256 (``MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE``).
+
+   If ``r_sizes[]`` consists of a single element
+   (``{ MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE }``), the corresponding range is split into two
+   halves, i.e.::
+
+     r_sizes_new[2] = { MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE/2, MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE/2 };
+     r_tags_new[2] = { r_tags[0], r_tags[0] };
+
+2. The number of the largest element of ``r_sizes[]`` is stored in
+   ``largest_idx``. The element itself is thrown away from ``r_sizes[]``,
+   because it can be reconstructed from the sum of the remaining elements. Note
+   that now none of the remaining ``r_sizes[]`` elements exceeds
+   ``MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE/2``.
+
+3. If the number ``N`` of ranges does not exceed ``6``, the ranges can be
+   compressed into 64 bits. This is done by storing the following values packed
+   into the pointer (``i<size>`` means a ``<size>``-bit unsigned integer)
+   treated as a bitmap (see ``include/linux/bitmap.h``)::
+
+    bit 0      :      (always 1) : i1
+    bits 1-3   :     largest_idx : i3
+    bits 4-27  :    r_tags[0..5] : i4 x 6
+    bits 28-62 :   r_sizes[0..4] : i7 x 5
+    bit 63     :      (always 0) : i1
+
+   If N is less than 6, ``r_tags`` and ``r_sizes`` are padded up with zero
+   values. The unused bits in the pointer, including bit 63, are also set to 0,
+   so the compressed data can be stored in XArray.
+
+   Range size of ``MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE/2`` (at most one) does not fit into
+   i7 and will be written as 0. This case is handled separately by the
+   decompressing procedure.
+
+Tag decompression
+-----------------
+
+The decompression algorithm performs the steps below.
+
+1. Read the lowest bit of the data from the input buffer and check that it is 1,
+   otherwise bail out.
+
+2. Read ``largest_idx``, ``r_tags[]`` and ``r_sizes[]`` from the
+   input buffer.
+
+   If ``largest_idx`` is zero, and all ``r_sizes[]`` are zero, set
+   ``r_sizes[0] = MTE_GRANULES_PER_PAGE/2``.
+
+   Calculate the removed largest element of ``r_sizes[]`` as
+   ``largest = 256 - sum(r_sizes)`` and insert it into ``r_sizes`` at
+   position ``largest_idx``.
+
+6. For each ``r_sizes[i] > 0``, add a 4-bit value ``r_tags[i]`` to the output
+   buffer ``r_sizes[i]`` times.
+
+
+Why these numbers?
+------------------
+
+To be able to reconstruct ``N`` tag ranges from the compressed data, we need to
+store the indicator bit together with ``largest_idx``, ``r_tags[N]``, and
+``r_sizes[N-1]`` in 63 bits.
+Knowing that the sizes do not exceed ``MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE``, each of them can be
+packed into ``S = ilog2(MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE)`` bits, whereas a single tag occupies
+4 bits.
+
+It is evident that the number of ranges that can be stored in 63 bits is
+strictly less than 8, therefore we only need 3 bits to store ``largest_idx``.
+
+The maximum values of ``N`` so that the number ``1 + 3 + N * 4 + (N-1) * S`` of
+storage bits does not exceed 63, are shown in the table below::
+
+ +-----------+-----------------+----+---+-------------------+
+ | Page size | Tag buffer size |  S | N |    Storage bits   |
+ +-----------+-----------------+----+---+-------------------+
+ |      4 KB |           128 B |  7 | 6 | 63 = 1+3+6*4+5*7  |
+ |     16 KB |           512 B |  9 | 5 | 60 = 1+3+5*4+4*9  |
+ |     64 KB |          2048 B | 11 | 4 | 53 = 1+3+4*4+3*11 |
+ +-----------+-----------------+----+---+-------------------+
+
+Note
+----
+
+Tag compression and decompression implicitly rely on the fixed MTE tag size
+(4 bits) and number of tags per page. Should these values change, the algorithm
+may need to be revised.
