[PATCH v2 0/3] tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix --sort, add module filter, improve usage

[Ye Liu]

From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>

This series improves the page_owner_sort tool with a bug fix, a new
module-name feature, and better usage text.

Patch 1 fixes a long-standing bug where --sort was silently ignored
when used without a short option (-a, -m, -p, etc.).  The COMP_NO_FLAG
case fell through to COMP_NUM and overwrote the sort conditions
configured by parse_sort_args().

Patch 2 adds kernel module name support for sort, cull, and filter
operations.  Page owner stack traces already contain module names in
the "function+0xNN/0xNN [module]" format produced by %pS, but
page_owner_sort had no way to use them.  Records without module frames
are assigned "vmlinux".

  # Aggregate page usage per module
  ./page_owner_sort input.txt output.txt --cull=mod

  # Filter to records from xfs module only
  ./page_owner_sort input.txt output.txt --module xfs

  # Sort by module name, then by pid descending
  ./page_owner_sort input.txt output.txt --sort=mod,-pid

Patch 3 lists all available sort keys with abbreviations and examples
directly in the --sort help section so users no longer need to read
the source to discover valid keys.

v2:
 - Patch 2: use regexec() directly in get_module() instead of search_pattern()
   to avoid excessive debug spam for the common vmlinux case when debug_on is true
 - Patch 2: anchor module regex to stack trace format "+0xNN/0xNN [module]" to
   prevent false matches on kernel thread comm names like [khugepaged]
 - Patch 2: add '-' to regex character class to support modules with hyphens
   (e.g. aa-bb-cc)

[PATCH v2 1/3] tools/mm/page_owner_sort: fix --sort option being silently ignored

[Ye Liu]

From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>

When --sort is used without any short option (-a, -m, -p, etc.),
compare_flag remains COMP_NO_FLAG.  The switch (compare_flag) then
falls through to the COMP_NUM case and calls set_single_cmp(), which
unconditionally overwrites the sort conditions that parse_sort_args()
already configured.  This makes --sort silently ineffective unless a
short option is also supplied.

Split COMP_NO_FLAG out of the COMP_NUM fallthrough so that --sort is
respected when no short option is present.

Reproduction:
  # Before fix: ascending order (ignored --sort=-pid)
  ./page_owner_sort --sort=-pid input.txt output.txt
  # After fix: descending order as expected

[PATCH v2 2/3] tools/mm/page_owner_sort: add module name sort/cull/filter support

[Ye Liu]

From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>

Page owner stack traces already contain kernel module names in the
"function+0xNN/0xNN [module]" format produced by %pS, but page_owner_sort
has no way to sort, cull, or filter by module.

Extract the first module name from each record's stack trace using an
anchored regex that matches the stack trace frame format
"+0x[0-9a-f]+/0x[0-9a-f]+\\s*\\[([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)\\]".

The regex is anchored to the stack trace frame to avoid false matches on
kernel thread comm names such as [khugepaged] that appear in the record
header.  The character class includes '-' so modules with hyphens
(e.g. aa-bb-cc) are correctly matched.

Records whose stack traces contain no module frames are assigned "vmlinux".

New options:
  -M                  Sort by module name
  --sort=mod          Sort by module name (supports +/- prefix)
  --cull=mod          Cull (aggregate) by module name
  --module <modlist>  Filter to records matching the given module(s)

The module field is also printed in cull output when relevant.

[PATCH v2 3/3] tools/mm/page_owner_sort: show available sort keys in usage text

[Ye Liu]

From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>

The --sort option accepts abbreviated or complete key names, but the
usage text never listed them.  Users had to read the source or the
documentation to discover valid keys.

List all available keys (full form and abbreviation) with a brief
description and examples directly in the --sort help section.

Why not a fallthrough; after the check?
