From d21077fbc2fc987c2e593c34dc3b4d84e546dc9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Roesch Date: Mon, 17 Apr 2023 22:13:41 -0700 Subject: mm: add new KSM process and sysfs knobs This adds the general_profit KSM sysfs knob and the process profit metric knobs to ksm_stat. 1) expose general_profit metric The documentation mentions a general profit metric, however this metric is not calculated. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures, which makes it more difficult for an administrator to make the calculation. Adding the metric for a better user experience. 2) document general_profit sysfs knob 3) calculate ksm process profit metric The ksm documentation mentions the process profit metric and how to calculate it. This adds the calculation of the metric. 4) mm: expose ksm process profit metric in ksm_stat This exposes the ksm process profit metric in /proc//ksm_stat. The documentation mentions the formula for the ksm process profit metric, however it does not calculate it. In addition the formula depends on the size of internal structures. So it makes sense to expose it. 5) document new procfs ksm knobs Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20230418051342.1919757-3-shr@devkernel.io Signed-off-by: Stefan Roesch Reviewed-by: Bagas Sanjaya Acked-by: David Hildenbrand Cc: David Hildenbrand Cc: Johannes Weiner Cc: Michal Hocko Cc: Rik van Riel Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton --- include/linux/ksm.h | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) (limited to 'include/linux') diff --git a/include/linux/ksm.h b/include/linux/ksm.h index 4647b0c70c12..7a9b76fb6c3f 100644 --- a/include/linux/ksm.h +++ b/include/linux/ksm.h @@ -68,6 +68,11 @@ void folio_migrate_ksm(struct folio *newfolio, struct folio *folio); void collect_procs_ksm(struct page *page, struct list_head *to_kill, int force_early); #endif + +#ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS +long ksm_process_profit(struct mm_struct *); +#endif /* CONFIG_PROC_FS */ + #else /* !CONFIG_KSM */ static inline void ksm_add_vma(struct vm_area_struct *vma) -- cgit
