The existed pGp shows the names of page flags only, rather than the full information including section, node, zone, last cpuipid and kasan tag. While it is not easy to parse these information manually because there are so many flavors. We'd better interpret them in printf. To be compitable with the existed format of pGp, the new introduced ones also use '|' as the separator, then the user tools parsing pGp won't need to make change, suggested by Matthew. The new added information is tracked onto the end of the existed one, e.g. [ 8838.835456] Slab 0x000000002828b78a objects=33 used=3 fp=0x00000000d04efc88 flags=0x17ffffc0010200(slab|head|node=0|zone=2|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) The documentation and test cases are also updated. The result of the test cases as follows, [68599.816764] test_printf: loaded. [68599.819068] test_printf: all 388 tests passed [68599.830367] test_printf: unloaded. This patchset also includes some code cleanup in mm/slub.c. v6: - fixes the build failure and test failure reported by kernel test robot v5: - remove the bitmap and better name the struct, per Petr v4: - extend %pGp instead of introducing new format, per Matthew v3: - coding improvement, per Joe and Andy - the possible impact on debugfs and the fix of it, per Joe and Matthew - introduce new format instead of changing pGp, per Andy v2: - various coding improvement, per Joe, Miaohe, Vlastimil and Andy - remove the prefix completely in patch #2, per Vlastimil - Update the test cases, per Andy Yafang Shao (3): mm, slub: use pGp to print page flags mm, slub: don't combine pr_err with INFO vsprintf: dump full information of page flags in pGp Documentation/core-api/printk-formats.rst | 2 +- lib/test_printf.c | 90 ++++++++++++++++++++--- lib/vsprintf.c | 66 +++++++++++++++-- mm/slub.c | 13 ++-- 4 files changed, 149 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) -- 2.18.2
