From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm-vmscan-add-active-list-aging-tracepoint-update
Our reclaim process has several tracepoints to tell us more about how
things are progressing. We are, however, missing a tracepoint to track
active list aging. Introduce mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_active which reports
the number of
- nr_taken is number of isolated pages from the active list
- nr_referenced pages which tells us that we are hitting referenced
pages which are deactivated. If this is a large part of the
reported nr_deactivated pages then we might be hitting into
the active list too early because they might be still part of
the working set. This might help to debug performance issues.
- nr_active pages which tells us how many pages are kept on the
active list - mostly exec file backed pages. A high number can
indicate that we might be trashing on executables.
