Subject: [RFC][PATCH 3/3] pagemap: document KPF_THP and show make page-types aware of it
Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2011 13:38:39 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1324319919-31720-4-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1324319919-31720-1-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>

page-types, which is a common user of pagemap, gets aware of thp
with this patch. This helps system admins and kernel hackers to know
about how thp works.
Here is a sample output of page-types over a thp:

  voffset offset  len     flags
  ...
  7f9d40200       3fd200  1       ___U_lA____Ma_b_______t____________
  7f9d40201       3fd201  1ff     ______________________t____________
  ...

  flags      page-count       MB  symbolic-flags                     long-symbolic-flags
  0x0000000000400000             511        1  ______________________t____________        thp
  0x0000000000405868               1        0  ___U_lA____Ma_b_______t____________        uptodate,lru,active,mmap,anonymous,swapbacked,thp
