  14. This option allows you to change some of the ways that
  15. Linux manages its memory internally. Most users will
  16. only have one option here: FLATMEM. This is normal
  17. and a correct option.
  18. Some users of more advanced features like NUMA and
  19. memory hotplug may have different options here.
  20. DISCONTIGMEM is an more mature, better tested system,
  21. but is incompatible with memory hotplug and may suffer
  22. decreased performance over SPARSEMEM. If unsure between
  23. "Sparse Memory" and "Discontiguous Memory", choose
  24. "Discontiguous Memory".

  30. This option provides enhanced support for discontiguous
  31. memory systems, over FLATMEM. These systems have holes
  32. in their physical address spaces, and this option provides
  33. more efficient handling of these holes. However, the vast
  34. majority of hardware has quite flat address spaces, and
  35. can have degraded performance from the extra overhead that
  36. this option imposes.
  37. Many NUMA configurations will have this as the only option.

  43. This will be the only option for some systems, including

  45. For many other systems, this will be an alternative to
  46. "Discontiguous Memory". This option provides some potential
  47. performance benefits, along with decreased code complexity,
  48. but it is newer, and more experimental.

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