There are pclusters in runtime marked with Z_EROFS_PCLUSTER_TAIL before actual I/O submission. Thus, the decompression chain can be extended if the following pcluster chain hooks such tail pcluster. As the related comment mentioned, if some page is made of a hooked pcluster and another followed pcluster, it can be reused for in-place I/O (since I/O should be submitted anyway): _______________________________________________________________ | tail (partial) page | head (partial) page | |_____PRIMARY_HOOKED___|____________PRIMARY_FOLLOWED____________| However, it's by no means safe to reuse as pagevec since if such PRIMARY_HOOKED pclusters finally move into bypass chain without I/O submission. It's somewhat hard to reproduce with LZ4 and I just found it (general protection fault) by ro_fsstressing a LZMA image for long time. I'm going to actively clean up related code together with multi-page folio adaption in the next few months. Let's address it directly for easier backporting for now.
