Subject: [PATCH 4/5] ksm: count zero pages for each process
Date: Sat,  8 Oct 2022 07:06:42 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221008070642.308693-1-xu.xin16@zte.com.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221008070156.308465-1-xu.xin16@zte.com.cn>

From: xu xin <xu.xin16@zte.com.cn>

As the number of ksm zero pages is not included in ksm_merging_pages per
process when enabling use_zero_pages, it's unclear of how many actual
pages are merged by KSM. To let users accurately estimate their memory
demands when unsharing KSM zero-pages, it's necessary to show KSM zero-
pages per process.

since unsharing zero pages placed by KSM accurately is achieved, then
tracking empty pages merging and unmerging is not a difficult thing any
longer.

Since we already have /proc/<pid>/ksm_stat, just add the information of
zero_pages_sharing in it.
