* @head: the list to sort
* @cmp: the elements comparison function
*
- * This function implements "merge sort", which has O(nlog(n))
- * complexity.
+ * The comparison funtion @cmp must return > 0 if @a should sort after
+ * @b ("@a > @b" if you want an ascending sort), and <= 0 if @a should
+ * sort before @b *or* their original order should be preserved. It is
+ * always called with the element that came first in the input in @a,
+ * and list_sort is a stable sort, so it is not necessary to distinguish
+ * the @a < @b and @a == @b cases.
*
- * The comparison function @cmp must return a negative value if @a
- * should sort before @b, and a positive value if @a should sort after
- * @b. If @a and @b are equivalent, and their original relative
- * ordering is to be preserved, @cmp must return 0.
+ * This is compatible with two styles of @cmp function:
+ * - The traditional style which returns <0 / =0 / >0, or
+ * - Returning a boolean 0/1.
+ * The latter offers a chance to save a few cycles in the comparison
+ * (which is used by e.g. plug_ctx_cmp() in block/blk-mq.c).
+ *
+ * A good way to write a multi-word comparison is::
+ *
+ * if (a->high != b->high)
+ * return a->high > b->high;
+ * if (a->middle != b->middle)
+ * return a->middle > b->middle;
+ * return a->low > b->low;
+ *
+ *
+ * This mergesort is as eager as possible while always performing at least
+ * 2:1 balanced merges. Given two pending sublists of size 2^k, they are
+ * merged to a size-2^(k+1) list as soon as we have 2^k following elements.
+ *
+ * Thus, it will avoid cache thrashing as long as 3*2^k elements can
+ * fit into the cache. Not quite as good as a fully-eager bottom-up
+ * mergesort, but it does use 0.2*n fewer comparisons, so is faster in
+ * the common case that everything fits into L1.
+ *
+ *
+ * The merging is controlled by "count", the number of elements in the
+ * pending lists. This is beautiully simple code, but rather subtle.
+ *
+ * Each time we increment "count", we set one bit (bit k) and clear
+ * bits k-1 .. 0. Each time this happens (except the very first time
+ * for each bit, when count increments to 2^k), we merge two lists of
+ * size 2^k into one list of size 2^(k+1).
+ *
+ * This merge happens exactly when the count reaches an odd multiple of
+ * 2^k, which is when we have 2^k elements pending in smaller lists,
+ * so it's safe to merge away two lists of size 2^k.
+ *
+ * After this happens twice, we have created two lists of size 2^(k+1),
+ * which will be merged into a list of size 2^(k+2) before we create
+ * a third list of size 2^(k+1), so there are never more than two pending.
+ *
+ * The number of pending lists of size 2^k is determined by the
+ * state of bit k of "count" plus two extra pieces of information:
+ *
+ * - The state of bit k-1 (when k == 0, consider bit -1 always set), and
+ * - Whether the higher-order bits are zero or non-zero (i.e.
+ * is count >= 2^(k+1)).
+ *
+ * There are six states we distinguish. "x" represents some arbitrary
+ * bits, and "y" represents some arbitrary non-zero bits:
+ * 0: 00x: 0 pending of size 2^k; x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * 1: 01x: 0 pending of size 2^k; 2^(k-1) + x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * 2: x10x: 0 pending of size 2^k; 2^k + x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * 3: x11x: 1 pending of size 2^k; 2^(k-1) + x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * 4: y00x: 1 pending of size 2^k; 2^k + x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * 5: y01x: 2 pending of size 2^k; 2^(k-1) + x pending of sizes < 2^k
+ * (merge and loop back to state 2)
+ *
+ * We gain lists of size 2^k in the 2->3 and 4->5 transitions (because
+ * bit k-1 is set while the more significant bits are non-zero) and
+ * merge them away in the 5->2 transition. Note in particular that just
+ * before the 5->2 transition, all lower-order bits are 11 (state 3),
+ * so there is one list of each smaller size.
+ *
+ * When we reach the end of the input, we merge all the pending
+ * lists, from smallest to largest. If you work through cases 2 to
+ * 5 above, you can see that the number of elements we merge with a list
+ * of size 2^k varies from 2^(k-1) (cases 3 and 5 when x == 0) to
+ * 2^(k+1) - 1 (second merge of case 5 when x == 2^(k-1) - 1).
