The patch titled Subject: oom, trace: remove ENUM evaluation of COMPACTION_FEEDBACK has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was oom-trace-remove-enum-evaluation-of-compaction_feedback.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: oom, trace: remove ENUM evaluation of COMPACTION_FEEDBACK After enabling CONFIG_TRACE_ENUM_MAP_FILE (which will soon be renamed to CONFIG_TRACE_EVAL_MAP_FILE), I am able to examine the enums that have been evaluated: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/enum_map (which will soon be renamed to eval_map) And it showed some interesting results: [..] ZONE_MOVABLE 3 (oom) ZONE_NORMAL 2 (oom) ZONE_DMA32 1 (oom) ZONE_DMA 0 (oom) 3 3 (oom) 2 2 (oom) 1 1 (oom) COMPACT_PRIO_ASYNC 2 (oom) COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT 1 (oom) COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_FULL 0 (oom) [..] ZONE_DMA 0 (vmscan) 3 3 (vmscan) 2 2 (vmscan) 1 1 (vmscan) COMPACT_PRIO_ASYNC 2 (vmscan) [..] ZONE_DMA 0 (kmem) 3 3 (kmem) 2 2 (kmem) 1 1 (kmem) COMPACT_PRIO_ASYNC 2 (kmem) [..] ZONE_DMA 0 (compaction) 3 3 (compaction) 2 2 (compaction) 1 1 (compaction) COMPACT_PRIO_ASYNC 2 (compaction) [..] The name within the parenthesis are the trace systems that the enum/eval maps are associated with. When there's a number evaluated to another number, that tells me that the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() was used on a #define and not an enum. As #defines get converted normally, they are not needed to be evaluated. Each of the above trace systems with the number to number evaluation included the file include/trace/events/mmflags.h which has: /* High-level compaction status feedback */ #define COMPACTION_FAILED 1 #define COMPACTION_WITHDRAWN 2 #define COMPACTION_PROGRESS 3 [..] #define COMPACTION_FEEDBACK \ EM(COMPACTION_FAILED, "failed") \ EM(COMPACTION_WITHDRAWN, "withdrawn") \ EMe(COMPACTION_PROGRESS, "progress") Which is still needed for the __print_symbolic() usage in the trace_event. But it is not needed to be evaluated. Removing the evaluation part removes the unnecessary evaluations of numbers to numbers.
