From: Mel Gorman Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2010 00:19:18 +0000 (-0700) Subject: vmscan: tracing: add trace event when a page is written X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=755f0225e8347b23a33ee6e3fb14a35310f95766;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git vmscan: tracing: add trace event when a page is written Add a trace event for when page reclaim queues a page for IO and records whether it is synchronous or asynchronous. Excessive synchronous IO for a process can result in noticeable stalls during direct reclaim. Excessive IO from page reclaim may indicate that the system is seriously under provisioned for the amount of dirty pages that exist.
