Would be possible to use for threshold pointed value(s) e.g. according to enum zone_state_item, because kinds of memory to track could be different? E.g. to tracking paging activity NR_ACTIVE_ANON and NR_ACTIVE_FILE could be interesting, not only free.
That seems like a horrible idea, because there is no guarantee that the kernel will continue to use NR_ACTIVE_ANON and NR_ACTIVE_FILE internally in the future. What is exported to userspace must be somewhat independent of the specifics of how the kernel implements things internally. -- All rights reversed -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
