The patch titled Subject: mm, vmstat: print non-populated zones in zoneinfo has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-vmstat-print-non-populated-zones-in-zoneinfo.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-vmstat-print-non-populated-zones-in-zoneinfo.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-vmstat-print-non-populated-zones-in-zoneinfo.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: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, vmstat: print non-populated zones in zoneinfo Initscripts can use the information (protection levels) from /proc/zoneinfo to configure vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio at boot. vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio is an array of ratios for each configured zone on the system. If a zone is not populated on an arch, /proc/zoneinfo suppresses its output. This results in there not being a 1:1 mapping between the set of zones emitted by /proc/zoneinfo and the zones configured by vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio. This patch shows statistics for non-populated zones in /proc/zoneinfo. The zones exist and hold a spot in the vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio array. Without this patch, it is not possible to determine which index in the array controls which zone if one or more zones on the system are not populated. Remaining users of walk_zones_in_node() are unchanged. Files such as /proc/pagetypeinfo require certain zone data to be initialized properly for display, which is not done for unpopulated zones.
