Subject: page-types: learn to describe flags directly from command line
From: Alex Chiang <achiang@xxxxxx>
Teach page-types to describe page flags directly from the command line.
Why is this useful? For instance, if you're using memory hotplug and see
this in /var/log/messages:
kernel: removing from LRU failed 3836dd0/1/1e00000000000010
It would be nice to decode those page flags without staring at the source.
Example usage and output:
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d 0x10
0x0000000000000010 ____D_____________________________ dirty
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d anon
0x0000000000001000 ____________a_____________________ anonymous
# Documentation/vm/page-types -d anon,0x10
0x0000000000001010 ____D_______a_____________________ dirty,anonymous
