	  This option is best suited for non-NUMA systems with
	  flat address space. The FLATMEM is the most efficient
	  system in terms of performance and resource consumption
	  and it is the best option for smaller systems.

	  For systems that have holes in their physical address
	  spaces and for features like NUMA and memory hotplug,
	  choose "Sparse Memory".

	  If unsure, choose this option (Flat Memory) over any other.

config DISCONTIGMEM_MANUAL

	depends on ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE
	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.

	  Although "Discontiguous Memory" is still used by several
	  architectures, it is considered deprecated in favor of
	  "Sparse Memory".

	  If unsure, choose "Sparse Memory" over this option.

config SPARSEMEM_MANUAL

	  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
	  by the guest workload. Allowing the compaction & migration for memory
	  pages enlisted as being part of memory balloon devices avoids the
	  scenario aforementioned and helps improving memory defragmentation.

	  Compaction is the only memory management component to form
	  high order (larger physically contiguous) memory blocks
	  reliably. The page allocator relies on compaction heavily and
	  the lack of the feature can lead to unexpected OOM killer
	  invocations for high order memory requests. You shouldn't

	  while the virtual addresses are not changed. This is useful in

	  Enable bounce buffers for devices that cannot access
	  the full range of memory available to the CPU. Enabled
	  by default when ZONE_DMA or HIGHMEM is selected, but you
	  may say n to override this.

config VIRT_TO_BUS
	bool
	help
	  An architecture should select this if it implements the
	  deprecated interface virt_to_bus().  All new architectures
	  should probably not select this.

config KSM
	bool "Enable KSM for page merging"
	depends on MMU
	select XXHASH
	help
	  Enable Kernel Samepage Merging: KSM periodically scans those areas
	  of an application's address space that an app has advised may be
	  mergeable.  When it finds pages of identical content, it replaces
	  the many instances by a single page with that content, so
	  saving memory until one or another app needs to modify the content.
	  Recommended for use with KVM, or with other duplicative applications.
	  See Documentation/vm/ksm.rst for more information: KSM is inactive
	  until a program has madvised that an area is MADV_MERGEABLE, and
	  root has set /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run to 1 (if CONFIG_SYSFS is set).

config DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
	int "Low address space to protect from user allocation"
	depends on MMU
	default 4096
	help
	  This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected
	  from userspace allocation.  Keeping a user from writing to low pages
	  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
	  protection by setting the value to 0.

	  This value can be changed after boot using the
	  /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr tunable.

	select RAS
	help
	  Enables code to recover from some memory failures on systems
	  with MCA recovery. This allows a system to continue running
	  even when some of its memory has uncorrected errors. This requires
	  special hardware support and typically ECC memory.
