Tue, 18 Apr 2023 05:13:41 +0000

mm: add new KSM process and sysfs knobsThis adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metricknobs to ksm_stat.1) expose general_profit metric The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this metric is not calculated. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an administrator to make the calculation. Adding the metric for a better user experience.2) document general_profit sysfs knob3) calculate ksm process profit metric The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to calculate it. This adds the calculation of the metric.4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc//ksm_stat. The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit metric, however it does not calculate it. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures. So it makes sense to expose it.5) document new procfs ksm knobsLink: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230418051342.1919757-3-shr@devkernel.ioSigned-off-by: Stefan Roesch Reviewed-by: Bagas Sanjaya Acked-by: David Hildenbrand Cc: David Hildenbrand Cc: Johannes Weiner Cc: Michal Hocko Cc: Rik van Riel Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton List of files: /linux-6.15/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-mm-ksm
