30 compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.

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

1220 Device memory hotplug support allows for establishing pmem,
1221 or other device driver discovered memory regions, in the
1222 memmap. This allows pfn_to_page() lookups of otherwise
1223 "device-physical" addresses which is needed for using a DAX
1224 mapping in an O_DIRECT operation, among other things.

1283 to make ioctl calls that can launch kernel-based unit tests for
1284 the get_user_pages*() and pin_user_pages*() family of API calls.
1285
1286 These tests include benchmark testing of the _fast variants of
1287 get_user_pages*() and pin_user_pages*(), as well as smoke tests of
1288 the non-_fast variants.
1289
1290 There is also a sub-test that allows running dump_page() on any
1291 of up to eight pages (selected by command line args) within the
1292 range of user-space addresses. These pages are either pinned via
1293 pin_user_pages*(), or pinned via get_user_pages*(), as specified
1294 by other command line arguments.
