 atgc			 Enable age-threshold garbage collection, it provides high
 			 effectiveness and efficiency on background GC.
+memory=%s		 Control memory mode. This supports "normal" and "low" modes.
+			 "low" mode is introduced to support low memory devices.
+			 Because of the nature of low memory devices, in this mode, f2fs
+			 will try to save memory sometimes by sacrificing performance.
+			 "normal" mode is the default mode and same as before.
 age_extent_cache	 Enable an age extent cache based on rb-tree. It records
 			 data block update frequency of the extent per inode, in
 			 order to provide better temperature hints for data block
