Message-ID: <20220704010946.DD6AAC341C6@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: shrinkers: add scan interface for shrinker debugfs
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-shrinkers-add-scan-interface-for-shrinker-debugfs.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: shrinkers: add scan interface for shrinker debugfs
Date: Tue, 31 May 2022 20:22:27 -0700
Add a scan interface which allows to trigger scanning of a particular
shrinker and specify memcg and numa node. It's useful for testing,
debugging and profiling of a specific scan_objects() callback. Unlike
alternatives (creating a real memory pressure and dropping caches via
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches) this interface allows to interact with only one
shrinker at once. Also, if a shrinker is misreporting the number of
objects (as some do), it doesn't affect scanning.

For each shrinker registered in the system a directory in **<debugfs>/shrinker/**
is created. The directory's name is composed from the shrinker's name and an
unique id: e.g. *kfree_rcu-0* or *sb-xfs:vda1-36*.
