"textContent": "The kernel coverage here at LWN often touches on memory-management topics\nand, as a result, tends to talk a lot about both pages and folios. As the\nfolio transition in the kernel has moved forward, it has often become\ndifficult to decide which term to use in writing that is meant to be both\napproachable and technically correct. As this work continues, it will be\nincreasingly common to use \"folio\" rather than page. This article is\nintended to be a convenient reference for readers wanting to differentiate\nthe two terms or understand the state of this transition.",
