From fe490cc0fe9e6ee48cc48bb5dc463bc5f0f1428f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Huang Ying Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2017 16:22:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm, THP, swap: add THP swapping out fallback counting When swapping out THP (Transparent Huge Page), instead of swapping out the THP as a whole, sometimes we have to fallback to split the THP into normal pages before swapping, because no free swap clusters are available, or cgroup limit is exceeded, etc. To count the number of the fallback, a new VM event THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK is added, and counted when we fallback to split the THP.
