In the NUMA machine, it is useful to know the memory distribution of
an inode page cache:
How many pages in the node 0?
How many pages in the node 1?
Add "files -n" command to get the memory distribution information:
1.) Add new argument for dump_inode_page_cache_info()
2.) make page_to_nid() a global function.
3.) Add summary_inode_page() to check each page's node
information.
4.) Use print_inode_summary_info() to print the
memory distribution information of an inode.

v2 --> v3:
1.) Always return 1 for summary_inode_page().
2.) Add more comment for help_files.
Thank you for the update, Shijie.---

A clear error message would be nice when the "files -n" command fails. What's your opinion on the following changes?
ok, no problem.
I did not met the "error" message with the /proc/kcore.
Maybe there are error message in the kernel crash core file.
+summary_inode_page(ulong page)
+{
+ int node;
+
+ if (!is_page_ptr(page, NULL))
+ error(FATAL, "Invalid inode page(0x%lx)\n", page);

Is this redandent?
The is_page_ptr() is called in page_to_nid();
It's true.
page_to_nid()->page_to_phys()->is_page_ptr()
But it may be worth sacrificing a little performance for helping with the debugging, if there is no better approach. Or need to refactor the relevant code? Looks
We may optimize some functions, such as page_to_phys().
but yes, it's another issue.
like another issue.
I guess all the invalid page is "0" which means an empty page cache slot, so could you please try this:
+static int
+summary_inode_page(ulong page)
+{
+ int node;
+
+ if (page) {
+ node = page_to_nid(page);
+ if (0 <= node && node <
vt->numnodes)
+ numa_node[node]++;
+ }
+ return 1;
+}
+
+ node = page_to_nid(page);
+ if (node < 0 || node >= vt->numnodes)
+ error(FATAL, "Invalid node(%d) for page(0x%lx)\n", node, page);
+
+ numa_node[node]++;
+
+ return 1;
+}
Without the above changes, it will print a lot of failures of "invalid page" once the corresponding inode page is invalid, unless that is expected behavior.

And also says that in help.c:+" -n inode given a hexadecimal inode address, check all the pages",
+" in the page cache, and display a NUMA node distribution",
+" if the inode page is valid, otherwise it will fail.",
Just my suggestions, any thoughts?I am fine with it.
I just curious why there are invalid pages in the page cache?
I tested it based on the live debugging(/proc/kcore), the steps are:[1] files command to display the inode infocrash> files
