1config PAGE_EXTENSION
2 bool "Extend memmap on extra space for more information on page"
3 ---help---
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.

21 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.

28 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.

50 This keeps track of what call chain is the owner of a page, may
51 help to find bare alloc_page(s) leaks. Even if you include this
52 feature on your build, it is disabled in default. You should pass
53 "page_owner=on" to boot parameter in order to enable it. Eats
54 a fair amount of memory if enabled. See tools/vm/page_owner_sort.c
55 for user-space helper.

78 Skip the sanity checking on alloc, only fill the pages with

88 ---help---
89 Instead of using the existing poison value, fill the pages with
90 zeros. This makes it harder to detect when errors are occurring
91 due to sanitization but the zeroing at free means that it is
92 no longer necessary to write zeros when GFP_ZERO is used on
93 allocation.

101 ---help---
102 This is a feature to add tracepoint for tracking down page reference
103 manipulation. This tracking is useful to diagnose functional failure
104 due to migration failures caused by page reference mismatches. Be
105 careful when enabling this feature because it adds about 30 KB to the
106 kernel code. However the runtime performance overhead is virtually
107 nil until the tracepoints are actually enabled.
