# Memory management

This chapter describes memory management in the Linux kernel. You will see here a couple of posts which describe different parts of the Linux memory management framework:

* [Memblock](https://0xax.gitbook.io/linux-insides/summary/mm/linux-mm-1) - describes early `memblock` allocator.
* [Fix-Mapped Addresses and ioremap](https://0xax.gitbook.io/linux-insides/summary/mm/linux-mm-2) - describes `fix-mapped` addresses and early `ioremap`.
* [kmemcheck](https://0xax.gitbook.io/linux-insides/summary/mm/linux-mm-3) - third part describes `kmemcheck` tool.
