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.

Akinobu Mita7bc32f62011-03-22 16:32:46 -070021 For architectures which don't enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
22 fill the pages with poison patterns after free_pages() and verify
23 the patterns before alloc_pages(). Additionally,
24 this option cannot be enabled in combination with hibernation as
25 that would result in incorrect warnings of memory corruption after
26 a resume because free pages are not saved to the suspend image.
27
Christian Borntraegerea6eabb2016-03-15 14:55:30 -070028 By default this option will have a small overhead, e.g. by not
29 allowing the kernel mapping to be backed by large pages on some
30 architectures. Even bigger overhead comes when the debugging is
31 enabled by DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT or the debug_pagealloc
32 command line parameter.

38 SLUB has a resiliency feature enabled which restores bytes in

40 debug options this may not be desirable as it prevents from

47 Android primarily uses an alternative mechanism to detect low
48 memory situations and kill processes as required. The kernel

113 This is a feature to add tracepoint for tracking down page reference
114 manipulation. This tracking is useful to diagnose functional failure
115 due to migration failures caused by page reference mismatches. Be
116 careful when enabling this feature because it adds about 30 KB to the
117 kernel code. However the runtime performance overhead is virtually
118 nil until the tracepoints are actually enabled.
