the config have some small issue. i make the linux-uksm/linux-uksm-ck package, using thoese config: CONFIG_KSM=y CONFIG_UKSM=y # CONFIG_KSM_LEGACY is not set graysky, you had better reconfig the config and config.x86_64 files.

@karabaja4 yes, see `make nconfig` -> Processor type and features -> Enable KSM for page merging CONFIG_KSM_LEGACY: default ON The legacy KSM implementation from Redhat. CONFIG_UKSM: UKSM is inspired by the Linux kernel project KSM, but with a fundamentally rewritten core algorithm. With an advanced algorithm, UKSM now can transparently scans all anonymously mapped user space applications with an significantly improved scan speed and CPU efficiency.

So, as I understand the UKSM patches, it continuosly scans the working memory for duplicated content, and reduces that to a single content. Basically you free up your redundant memory at expense of additional CPU resources. Sounds like something not everyone would want. Is something similar called KSM already included and enabled in the kernel? If it is, is UKSM another version of it?

"...and if the code is 100 % dominate..." I think you mean 100% dormant. :)

Re-release of v3.3.4-2 Changelog: Re-release of 3.3.4-2 with optional support for the uksm patchset by request. It compiled on my test machine with no issues. I also asked CK to give an opinion about this patchset co-existing with BFS. Note - Until I can understand more about this patchset, I do NOT plan on enabling it by default therefore repo users don't need to worry about it. If it is possible to switch this on/off from userspace and if the code is 100 % dominate until activated, I will think about it.

@wtry I must admit the UKSM patch looks fairly awesome. High-performance transparent deduplication looks interesting.

can add the uksm patch? https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=58802

Bump to v3.3.4-2 Upstream Changelog: http://lwn.net/Articles/495000 Changelog: Arch devs incorporated several modifications to the config/config.x86_64 since I released 3.3.4-1 ahead of their release. This release incorporates those changes. See: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/linux&id=72b22f3effdec717fac0217ca6f4c193e5fcbd6d
