For example, if there exists 2 blocks which have the same stacktrace and the different head info Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 73696, ts 1578829190639010 ns, free_ts 1576583851324450 ns prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8 Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 61806, ts 1354113726046100 ns, free_ts 1354104926841400 ns prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8 After culling, it would be like this 2 times, 2 pages: Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 73696, ts 1578829190639010 ns, free_ts 1576583851324450 ns prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8 The info of second block missed. So, add -c to turn on culling by stacktrace. By default, it will cull by txt.
