219 Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce
220 significantly the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be
221 used within a guest, thus imposing performance penalties associated
222 with the reduced number of transparent huge pages that could be used
223 by the guest workload. Allowing the compaction & migration for memory
224 pages enlisted as being part of memory balloon devices avoids the

363 help
364 The NOMMU mmap() frequently needs to allocate large contiguous chunks
365 of memory on which to store mappings, but it can only ask the system
366 allocator for chunks in 2^N*PAGE_SIZE amounts - which is frequently
367 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
368 the excess and return it to the allocator.
369
370 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
371 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
372 if there are a lot of transient processes.
373
374 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
375 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
376
377 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
378 (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of
379 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
380 no trimming is to occur.
381
382 This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default
383 of 1 says that all excess pages should be trimmed.

451 for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
452 (PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough
453 memory. So when the PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use
Michael Witten140a1ef2011-06-10 03:57:26 +0000454 cleancache code to put the data contained in that page into
Dan Magenheimer077b1f82011-05-26 10:01:36 -0600455 "transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
456 addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
457 time-varying size. And when a cleancache-enabled
458 filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
459 checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
460 the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
461 When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
462 Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
463 may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls
464 are reduced to a single pointer-compare-against-NULL resulting

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

701 zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
702 compressed RAM pages. zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
703 in order to reduce fragmentation. However, this results in a
704 non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
705 returned by an alloc(). This handle must be mapped in order to
706 access the allocated space.

711 help
712 By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to
713 access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular
714 architecture (ex, ARM) performs VM mapping faster than copying,
715 then you should select this. This causes zsmalloc to use page table
716 mapping rather than copying for object mapping.

754 Ordinarily all struct pages are initialised during early boot in a
755 single thread. On very large machines this can take a considerable
756 amount of time. If this option is set, large machines will bring up
757 a subset of memmap at boot and then initialise the rest in parallel
Vlastimil Babka1ce22102016-02-05 15:36:21 -0800758 by starting one-off "pgdatinitX" kernel thread for each node X. This
759 has a potential performance impact on processes running early in the
760 lifetime of the system until these kthreads finish the
761 initialisation.
