1config PAGE_EXTENSION
2 bool "Extend memmap on extra space for more information on page"
3 ---help---
4 Extend memmap on extra space for more information on page. This
5 could be used for debugging features that need to insert extra
6 field for every page. This extension enables us to save memory
7 by not allocating this extra memory according to boottime
8 configuration.

19 Depending on runtime enablement, this results in a small or large
20 slowdown, but helps to find certain types of memory corruption.

22 For architectures which don't enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
23 fill the pages with poison patterns after free_pages() and verify
24 the patterns before alloc_pages(). Additionally,
25 this option cannot be enabled in combination with hibernation as
26 that would result in incorrect warnings of memory corruption after
27 a resume because free pages are not saved to the suspend image.

29 By default this option will have a small overhead, e.g. by not
30 allowing the kernel mapping to be backed by large pages on some
31 architectures. Even bigger overhead comes when the debugging is
32 enabled by DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT or the debug_pagealloc
33 command line parameter.

44 bool "Poison pages after freeing"
45 select PAGE_EXTENSION
46 select PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY if HIBERNATION
47 ---help---
48 Fill the pages with poison patterns after free_pages() and verify
49 the patterns before alloc_pages. The filling of the memory helps
50 reduce the risk of information leaks from freed data. This does
51 have a potential performance impact.
52
53 Note that "poison" here is not the same thing as the "HWPoison"
54 for CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE. This is software poisoning only.

59 depends on PAGE_POISONING
60 bool "Only poison, don't sanity check"
61 ---help---
62 Skip the sanity checking on alloc, only fill the pages with
63 poison on free. This reduces some of the overhead of the
64 poisoning feature.
65
66 If you are only interested in sanitization, say Y. Otherwise
67 say N.

69config PAGE_POISONING_ZERO
70 bool "Use zero for poisoning instead of random data"
71 depends on PAGE_POISONING
72 ---help---
73 Instead of using the existing poison value, fill the pages with
74 zeros. This makes it harder to detect when errors are occurring
75 due to sanitization but the zeroing at free means that it is
76 no longer necessary to write zeros when GFP_ZERO is used on
77 allocation.

82config DEBUG_PAGE_REF
83 bool "Enable tracepoint to track down page reference manipulation"
84 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
85 depends on TRACEPOINTS
86 ---help---
87 This is a feature to add tracepoint for tracking down page reference
88 manipulation. This tracking is useful to diagnose functional failure
89 due to migration failures caused by page reference mismatches. Be
90 careful when enabling this feature because it adds about 30 KB to the
91 kernel code. However the runtime performance overhead is virtually
92 nil until the tracepoints are actually enabled.
