It converts the vmlinux's debug infomation into a VMCOREINFO-like data. So I don't think this command is suitable to introduce here. > +PG_lru|PG_private|PG_swapcache|PG_swapbacked|PG_slab| > +PG_hwpoision|PG_head_mask > +----------------------------------------------------- > + > +Page attributes.
