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. | |

760 | The NOMMU mmap() frequently needs to allocate large contiguous chunks | |

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. | |
777 | ||
778 | This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default | |

882 | This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other | |
883 | subsystems to allocate big physically-contiguous blocks of memory. | |
884 | CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to | |
885 | be allocated from it. This way, the kernel can use the memory for | |
886 | pagecache and when a subsystem requests for contiguous area, the | |
