What: /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/merge_across_nodes Date: January 2013 KernelVersion: 3.9 Contact: Linux memory management mailing list <linux-mm@kvack.org> Description: Control merging pages across different NUMA nodes. When it is set to 0 only pages from the same node are merged, otherwise pages from all nodes can be merged together (default). |
