[PATCH v3] mm: add per-order mTHP alloc_success and alloc_fail counters

[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. Presenting the
success rate of mTHP allocations appears to be 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.

This patch sets up the framework for per-order mTHP counters,
starting with the introduction of anon_alloc_success and
anon_alloc_fail counters.  Incorporating additional counters
should now be straightforward as well.

 -v3:
 * save some memory as order-0 and order-1 can't be THP, Ryan;
 * rename to anon_alloc as right now we only support anon to address
   David's comment;
 * drop a redundant "else", Ryan
