388 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
389 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly

394
395 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option

397 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if

457 (PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough

464 checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,

478 help
479 Frontswap is so named because it can be thought of as the opposite
480 of a "backing" store for a swap device. The data is stored into
481 "transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
482 addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
483 time-varying size. When space in transcendent memory is available,
484 a significant swap I/O reduction may be achieved. When none is
485 available, all frontswap calls are reduced to a single pointer-
486 compare-against-NULL resulting in a negligible performance hit
487 and swap data is stored as normal on the matching swap device.
488
489 If unsure, say Y to enable frontswap.

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

551 A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes
552 pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
553 compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
554 This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
555 in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
556 reads, can also improve workload performance.
557
558 This is marked experimental because it is a new feature (as of
559 v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim. While these
560 interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,
561 they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential
562 configurations and workloads that exist.

586 zsmalloc is a slab-based memory allocator designed to store
587 compressed RAM pages. zsmalloc uses virtual memory mapping
588 in order to reduce fragmentation. However, this results in a
589 non-standard allocator interface where a handle, not a pointer, is
590 returned by an alloc(). This handle must be mapped in order to
591 access the allocated space.

597 By default, zsmalloc uses a copy-based object mapping method to
598 access allocations that span two pages. However, if a particular
599 architecture (ex, ARM) performs VM mapping faster than copying,
600 then you should select this. This causes zsmalloc to use page table
601 mapping rather than copying for object mapping.

644 Ordinarily all struct pages are initialised during early boot in a

647 a subset of memmap at boot and then initialise the rest in parallel
648 when kswapd starts. This has a potential performance impact on
649 processes running early in the lifetime of the systemm until kswapd
