The patch titled Subject: mm/compaction: print current range where compaction work has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-compaction-print-current-range-where-compaction-work.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-compaction-print-current-range-where-compaction-work.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-compaction-print-current-range-where-compaction-work.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm/compaction: print current range where compaction work It'd be useful to know current range where compaction work for detailed analysis. With it, we can know pageblock where we actually scan and isolate, and, how much pages we try in that pageblock and can guess why it doesn't become freepage with pageblock order roughly.
