It is triggered from try_to_shrink_lruvec() when should_run_aging() finds that eviction is no longer possible, or that it would be better to age first at the current priority. There is currently no tracepoint on this path, so it cannot be observed when and why aging is needed. Add mm_mglru_aging, emitted in try_to_shrink_lruvec() right before try_to_inc_max_seq(), with the node id, memcg id, sc->priority, swappiness, max_seq, the anon and file min_seq, and the number of pages in each generation for both types, as computed by lruvec_gen_size(). The reason for aging is not reported explicitly, as the logic in should_run_aging() may change, e.g. for imbalance-based aging. It can be derived from the generation window and the per-generation sizes, which are taken before aging, so the youngest generation is populated as well. The nr_anon/nr_file arrays are ordered by seq rather than by generation slot: entry i holds the generation max_seq - MAX_NR_GENS + 1 + i, i.e. they go from the oldest generation to the newest, the same order as the debugfs lru_gen file, so the output can be read directly without mapping slots back to seqs. The arrays are printed with __print_array(), so the output is hex and its length follows MAX_NR_GENS automatically. Only the lruvec, sc and swappiness are passed in; everything else, including max_seq, is read in TP_fast_assign(), so try_to_shrink_lruvec() does no extra work when the event is disabled. Reading max_seq there rather than using the caller's copy keeps the window consistent with the per-generation sizes read right after it, should another reclaimer age the lruvec in between. The event marks the aging decision, not its result: the following try_to_inc_max_seq() may find that aging is already in progress or done by another reclaimer, so concurrent reclaimers can each emit it for the same max_seq. Whether max_seq was advanced can be seen from the following mm_mglru_scan_folios.
