35 This option provides enhanced support for discontiguous
36 memory systems, over FLATMEM. These systems have holes
37 in their physical address spaces, and this option provides
38 more efficient handling of these holes. However, the vast

372 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
373 the excess and return it to the allocator.
374
375 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
376 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
377 if there are a lot of transient processes.
378
379 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
380 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
381
382 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option

384 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
385 no trimming is to occur.

484 This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other
485 subsystems to allocate big physically-contiguous blocks of memory.
486 CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to
487 be allocated from it. This way, the kernel can use the memory for
488 pagecache and when a subsystem requests for contiguous area, the
489 allocated pages are migrated away to serve the contiguous request.

538 A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes
539 pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
540 compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
541 This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
542 in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
543 reads, can also improve workload performance.
544
545 This is marked experimental because it is a new feature (as of
546 v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim. While these
547 interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,
548 they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential
549 configurations and workloads that exist.

562 A special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages.
563 It is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical
564 page. While this design limits storage density, it has simple and
565 deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher
566 density approach when reclaim will be used.

573 zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
574 compressed RAM pages. zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
575 in order to reduce fragmentation. However, this results in a
576 non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
577 returned by an alloc(). This handle must be mapped in order to
578 access the allocated space.

583 help
584 By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to
585 access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular
586 architecture (ex, ARM) performs VM mapping faster than copying,
587 then you should select this. This causes zsmalloc to use page table
588 mapping rather than copying for object mapping.
