Subject: [PATCH 7/8] tools/mm: Add memory cgroup filtering support to page_owner_filter
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2026 11:13:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260828031339.1270699-8-zhen.ni@easystack.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260828031339.1270699-1-zhen.ni@easystack.cn>
Add filtering capability for page_owner to allow filtering by
memory cgroup path.
Filter page_owner output by cgroup path:
./page_owner_filter -g /
./page_owner_filter -g /user.slice
./page_owner_filter -g /user.slice -c systemd
