32 A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes
33 pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
34 compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
35 This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
36 in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster than swap device
37 reads, can also improve workload performance.

55
56 If exclusive loads are enabled, when a page is loaded from zswap,
57 the zswap entry is invalidated at once, as opposed to leaving it
58 in zswap until the swap entry is freed.
59
60 This avoids having two copies of the same page in memory
61 (compressed and uncompressed) after faulting in a page from zswap.
62 The cost is that if the page was never dirtied and needs to be
63 swapped out again, it will be re-compressed.

292 by attackers. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits

346 Randomization of the page allocator improves the average

348 5.2.27 Heterogeneous Memory Attribute Table (HMAT) in the ACPI
349 6.2a specification for an example of how a platform advertises
350 the presence of a memory-side-cache. There are also incidental
351 security benefits as it reduces the predictability of page
352 allocations to compliment SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM, but the
353 default granularity of shuffling on the MAX_ORDER i.e, 10th
354 order of pages is selected based on cache utilization benefits
355 on x86.
356
357 While the randomization improves cache utilization it may
358 negatively impact workloads on platforms without a cache. For
359 this reason, by default, the randomization is enabled only
360 after runtime detection of a direct-mapped memory-side-cache.

622 Compaction is the only memory management component to form
623 high order (larger physically contiguous) memory blocks
624 reliably. The page allocator relies on compaction heavily and
625 the lack of the feature can lead to unexpected OOM killer
626 invocations for high order memory requests. You shouldn't
627 disable this option unless there really is a strong reason for
628 it and then we would be really interested to hear about that at

761 of memory on which to store mappings, but it can only ask the system
762 allocator for chunks in 2^N*PAGE_SIZE amounts - which is frequently
763 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
764 the excess and return it to the allocator.
765
766 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
767 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
768 if there are a lot of transient processes.
769
770 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
771 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
772
773 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
774 (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of
775 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
776 no trimming is to occur.
