<h2><a href=ols2006v1-pages-369-384.pdf>The What, The Why and the Where To
of Anti-Fragmentation</a> - <b>Mel Gorman, Andy Whitcroft</b></h2>

<p>Preventing DRAM fragmentation, to allow large physically contiguous
allocations (and maybe even the allocation of huge pages on a system that's
been running a while).  This is not the same as actively defragmenting
(evicting lots of physically contiguous pages on demand, which is hard if the
kernel's pinned any), this is an allocation strategy to minimize fragmentation
in the first place, and weight the page reclaimation logic to preferentially
collate higher order pages whenever it has a choice about what to free.</p>
