I cannot use __GFP_ACCOUNT because cma_alloc() does not use gfp. Besides, kmem accounting with __GFP_ACCOUNT does not seem to update stats and there was an explicit request for statistics: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CALo0P13aq3GsONnZrksZNU9RtfhMsZXGWhK1n=xYJWQizCd4Zw@mail.gmail.com/ As for (ab)using NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B, as it was already discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201129172625.GD557259@kernel.org/ I think that a dedicated stats counter would be too much at the moment and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B is the only explicit stat for unreclaimable memory. -- Sincerely yours, Mike. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
