[RFC PATCH] mm: show mthp_fault_alloc and mthp_fault_fallback of multi-size THPs

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

 



From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx>

Profiling a system blindly with mTHP has become challenging due
to the lack of visibility into its operations. While displaying
additional statistics such as partial map/unmap actions may
spark debate, presenting the success rate of mTHP allocations
appears to be a straightforward and pressing need.

Recently, I've been experiencing significant difficulty debugging
performance improvements and regressions without these figures.
It's crucial for us to understand the true effectiveness of
mTHP in real-world scenarios, especially in systems with fragmented
memory.
