help
Self-ballooning dynamically balloons available kernel memory driven
by the current usage of anonymous memory ("committed AS") and
controlled by various sysfs-settable parameters. Configuring
FRONTSWAP is highly recommended; if it is not configured, self-
ballooning is disabled by default but can be enabled with the
'selfballooning' kernel boot parameter. If FRONTSWAP is configured,
frontswap-selfshrinking is enabled by default but can be disabled
with the 'noselfshrink' kernel boot parameter; and self-ballooning
is enabled by default but can be disabled with the 'noselfballooning'
kernel boot parameter. Note that systems without a sufficiently
large swap device should not enable self-ballooning.
