Subject: [PATCH v10 01/30] ring-buffer: Add page statistics to the meta-page
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2026 10:43:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260126104419.1649811-2-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260126104419.1649811-1-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.
