[PATCH] mm/smaps: add Pss_Dirty

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

 



Pss is the sum of the sizes of clean and dirty private pages, and the
proportional sizes of clean and dirty shared pages:

 Private = Private_Dirty + Private_Clean
 Shared_Proportional = Shared_Dirty_Proportional + Shared_Clean_Proportional
 Pss = Private + Shared_Proportional

The Shared*Proportional fields are not present in smaps, so it is not
possible to determine how much of the Pss is from dirty pages and how
much is from clean pages.  This information can be useful for measuring
memory usage for the purpose of optimisation, since clean pages can
usually be discarded by the kernel immediately while dirty pages cannot.

The smaps routines in the kernel already have access to this data, so
add a Pss_Dirty to show it to userspace.  Pss_Clean is not added since
it can be calculated from Pss and Pss_Dirty.
