| ===================================== |
| This is a collection of documents about the Linux memory management (mm) |
| subsystem internals with different level of details ranging from notes and |
| mailing list responses for elaborating descriptions of data structures and |
| algorithms. If you are looking for advice on simply allocating memory, see the |
