[PATCH v2] mm/page_alloc: count CMA pages per zone and print them in /proc/zoneinfo

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Let's count the number of CMA pages per zone and print them in
/proc/zoneinfo.

Having access to the total number of CMA pages per zone is helpful for
debugging purposes to know where exactly the CMA pages ended up, and to
figure out how many pages of a zone might behave differently, even after
some of these pages might already have been allocated.

As one example, CMA pages part of a kernel zone cannot be used for
ordinary kernel allocations but instead behave more like ZONE_MOVABLE.

For now, we are only able to get the global nr+free cma pages from
/proc/meminfo and the free cma pages per zone from /proc/zoneinfo.

Example after this patch when booting a 6 GiB QEMU VM with
"hugetlb_cma=2G":
  # cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep cma
          cma      0
        nr_free_cma  0
          cma      0
        nr_free_cma  0
          cma      524288
        nr_free_cma  493016
          cma      0
          cma      0
  # cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
  CmaTotal:        2097152 kB
  CmaFree:         1972064 kB

Note: We track/print only with CONFIG_CMA; "nr_free_cma" in /proc/zoneinfo
is currently also printed without CONFIG_CMA.
