+ help
+ The memory driver provides two character devices, mem and kmem, which
+ provide access to the system's memory. The mem device is a view of
+ physical memory, and each byte in the device corresponds to the
+ matching physical address. The kmem device is the same as mem, but
+ the addresses correspond to the kernel's virtual address space rather
+ than physical memory. These devices are standard parts of a Linux
+ system and most users should say Y here. You might say N if very
+ security conscience or memory is tight.
