Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 16/18] mm: page_reporting: add flush parameter with page budget
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 08:51:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <23f8d36128771ded02b426cf71b840500004ca52.1776689093.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1776689093.git.mst@redhat.com>
Add a write-only module parameter "flush" that triggers immediate
page reporting. The value specifies approximately how many pages
(at page_reporting_order) to report. The flush loops through
reporting cycles until the budget is exhausted, all pages are
reported, or a signal is pending.
echo 512 > /sys/module/page_reporting/parameters/flush
