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.

18 Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages().
19 This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types
Frans Pop22f8b452009-07-24 05:31:17 +020020 of memory corruption.

Akinobu Mita7bc32f62011-03-22 16:32:46 -070022 For architectures which don't enable ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
23 fill the pages with poison patterns after free_pages() and verify
24 the patterns before alloc_pages(). Additionally,
25 this option cannot be enabled in combination with hibernation as
26 that would result in incorrect warnings of memory corruption after
27 a resume because free pages are not saved to the suspend image.
