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

348 help
349 The NOMMU mmap() frequently needs to allocate large contiguous chunks
350 of memory on which to store mappings, but it can only ask the system
351 allocator for chunks in 2^N*PAGE_SIZE amounts - which is frequently
352 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
353 the excess and return it to the allocator.
354
355 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
356 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
357 if there are a lot of transient processes.
358
359 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
360 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
361
362 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
363 (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of
364 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
365 no trimming is to occur.
366
367 This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default
368 of 1 says that all excess pages should be trimmed.

436 for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
437 (PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough
438 memory. So when the PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use
Michael Witten140a1ef2011-06-10 03:57:26 +0000439 cleancache code to put the data contained in that page into
Dan Magenheimer077b1f82011-05-26 10:01:36 -0600440 "transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
441 addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
442 time-varying size. And when a cleancache-enabled
443 filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
444 checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
445 the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
446 When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
447 Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
448 may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls
449 are reduced to a single pointer-compare-against-NULL resulting

695 zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
696 compressed RAM pages. zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
697 in order to reduce fragmentation. However, this results in a
698 non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
699 returned by an alloc(). This handle must be mapped in order to
700 access the allocated space.
