+ help
+ For reduced kernel memory fragmentation, slab caches can be
+ merged when they share the same size and other characteristics.
+ This carries a risk of kernel heap overflows being able to
+ overwrite objects from merged caches (and more easily control
+ cache layout), which makes such heap attacks easier to exploit
+ by attackers. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits
+ can usually only damage objects in the same cache. To disable
+ merging at runtime, "slab_nomerge" can be passed on the kernel
+ command line.
