331 The NOMMU mmap() frequently needs to allocate large contiguous chunks
332 of memory on which to store mappings, but it can only ask the system
333 allocator for chunks in 2^N*PAGE_SIZE amounts - which is frequently
334 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
335 the excess and return it to the allocator.
336
337 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
338 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
339 if there are a lot of transient processes.
340
341 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
342 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
343
344 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
345 (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of
346 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
347 no trimming is to occur.
