Subject: [PATCH v8 01/28] ring-buffer: Add page statistics to the meta-page
Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2025 09:38:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251107093840.3779150-2-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251107093840.3779150-1-vdonnefort@google.com>
Add two fields pages_touched and pages_lost to the ring-buffer
meta-page. Those fields are useful to get the number of used pages in
the ring-buffer.
