has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
mm-page_owner-add-print_mode-filter.patch
This patch will shortly appear at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-page_owner-add-print_mode-filter.patch

Subject: mm/page_owner: add print_mode filter
Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2026 23:55:39 +0800
Add print_mode functionality to reduce page_owner output size by printing
only the stack handle instead of the full stack trace.
Example output with print_mode enabled:
Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x42800(GFP_NOWAIT|__GFP_COMP),
pid 1, tgid 1 (systemd), ts 349667370 ns
PFN 0xa00a2 type Unmovable Block 1280 type Unmovable
Flags 0x33fffe0000004124(referenced|lru|active|private|node=3|zone=0|
lastcpupid=0x1ffff)
handle: 17432583
Charged to memcg /
Print mode significantly reduces output size while preserving all other
page allocation information. The correspondence between handles and stack
traces can be obtained through the show_stacks_handles interface.
