This option allows you to change some of the ways that
Linux manages its memory internally. Most users will
only have one option here: FLATMEM. This is normal
and a correct option.
Some users of more advanced features like NUMA and
memory hotplug may have different options here.
DISCONTIGMEM is a more mature, better tested system,
but is incompatible with memory hotplug and may suffer
decreased performance over SPARSEMEM. If unsure between
"Sparse Memory" and "Discontiguous Memory", choose
"Discontiguous Memory".
If unsure, choose this option (Flat Memory) over any other.
config DISCONTIGMEM_MANUAL

help
This option provides enhanced support for discontiguous
memory systems, over FLATMEM. These systems have holes
in their physical address spaces, and this option provides
more efficient handling of these holes. However, the vast
majority of hardware has quite flat address spaces, and
can have degraded performance from the extra overhead that
this option imposes.
Many NUMA configurations will have this as the only option.
If unsure, choose "Flat Memory" over this option.
config SPARSEMEM_MANUAL

This will be the only option for some systems, including

If unsure, choose "Discontiguous Memory" or "Flat Memory"

Allow a node to have only movable memory. Pages used by the kernel,
such as direct mapping pages cannot be migrated. So the corresponding
memory device cannot be hotplugged. This option allows the following
two things:
- When the system is booting, node full of hotpluggable memory can
be arranged to have only movable memory so that the whole node can
be hot-removed. (need movable_node boot option specified).
- After the system is up, the option allows users to online all the
memory of a node as movable memory so that the whole node can be
hot-removed.
Users who don't use the memory hotplug feature are fine with this
option on since they don't specify movable_node boot option or they
don't online memory as movable.
Say Y here if you want to hotplug a whole node.
Say N here if you want kernel to use memory on all nodes evenly.

Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce
significantly the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be
used within a guest, thus imposing performance penalties associated
with the reduced number of transparent huge pages that could be used

pages enlisted as being part of memory balloon devices avoids the

This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected

can help reduce the impact of kernel NULL pointer bugs.
For most ia64, ppc64 and x86 users with lots of address space
a value of 65536 is reasonable and should cause no problems.
On arm and other archs it should not be higher than 32768.
Programs which use vm86 functionality or have some need to map
this low address space will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO or disable this

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

config CLEANCACHE
bool "Enable cleancache driver to cache clean pages if tmem is present"
default n
help
Cleancache can be thought of as a page-granularity victim cache
for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
(PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough
memory. So when the PFRA "evicts" a page, it first attempts to use
cleancache code to put the data contained in that page into
"transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
time-varying size. And when a cleancache-enabled
filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls
are reduced to a single pointer-compare-against-NULL resulting
in a negligible performance hit.

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

This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other

CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to

allocated pages are migrated away to serve the contiguous request.
If unsure, say "n".

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