Subject: [RFC v4 3/3] add PGVOLATILE vmstat count
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2012 15:47:54 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1355813274-571-4-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1355813274-571-1-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.org>
This patch add pgvolatile vmstat so admin can see how many of volatile
pages are discarded by VM until now. It could be a good indicator of
patch effect during test but still not sure we need it in real practice.
Will rethink it.
