Print out statistics in relation to fragmentation avoidance to /proc/pagetypeinfo
This patch provides fragmentation avoidance statistics via /proc/pagetypeinfo.
The information is collected only on request so there is no runtime overhead.
The statistics are in three parts:
The first part prints information on the size of blocks that pages are
being grouped on and looks like
Page block order: 10
Pages per block: 1024
The second part is a more detailed version of /proc/buddyinfo and looks like
Free pages count per migrate type at order 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Node 0, zone DMA, type Unmovable 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone DMA, type Reclaimable 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone DMA, type Movable 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone DMA, type Reserve 0 4 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0
Node 0, zone Normal, type Unmovable 111 8 4 4 2 3 1 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal, type Reclaimable 293 89 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal, type Movable 1 6 13 9 7 6 3 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal, type Reserve 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4
The third part looks like
Number of blocks type Unmovable Reclaimable Movable Reserve
Node 0, zone DMA 0 1 2 1
Node 0, zone Normal 3 17 94 4
To walk the zones within a node with interrupts disabled, walk_zones_in_node()
is introduced and shared between /proc/buddyinfo, /proc/zoneinfo and
/proc/pagetypeinfo to reduce code duplication. It seems specific to what
vmstat.c requires but could be broken out as a general utility function in
mmzone.c if there were other other potential users.
