| |
Hi,
Well, I've started working on VM stats code for 2.4.
vmstat output:
# r b w swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id # 0 1 1 102624 1412 120 89472 90 9114 304 9160 336 1102 12 7 92
This is the already known part..
# launder launder_w ref_inact alloc_r kswapd_w krec_w kflush_w # 33 11 147 1260 23 328 151
First, the global statistics:
launder: nr of page_launder() calls launder_w: nr of times page_launder() started writing out pages ref_inac: nr of refill_inactive_scan() calls alloc_r: number of reschedules on __alloc_pages() kswapd_w: kswapd wakeups krec_w: kreclaimd wakeups kflush_w: kflushd wakeups
# Zone fshort ishort scan clean skipl skipd launder react rescue deact recfail # DMA 0 224 3915 1500 342 1406 531 153 0 452 636 # Normal 0 0 28073 12490 2451 9295 2678 676 0 2654 947
Then the perzone statistics:
fshort: per-zone free shortage ishort: per-zone inactive shortage scan: number of pages scanned by page_launder clean: number of pages cleaned by page_launder skipl: number of locked pages skipped by page_launder skipd: number of unlocked but dirty pages skipped by page_launder launder: number of pages laundered by page_launder react: number of pages reactivated by page_launder rescue: number of pages reactivated by reclaim_page deat: number of pages deactivated by refill_inactive_scan recfail: number of reclaim_page failures
The code:
Patch against 2.4.6pre9: http://bazar.conectiva.com.br/~marcelo/patches/v2.4/2.4.6pre9/vmstats.patch
Patch against procps from Conectiva's srpm (which is not stock procps): http://bazar.conectiva.com.br/~marcelo/patches/v2.4/2.4.6pre9/procps.patch
And full vmstat.c so people don't need to get Conectiva's srpm: http://bazar.conectiva.com.br/~marcelo/patches/v2.4/2.4.6pre9/vmstat.c
The vmstat code is really crappy and new fields are painfull to add. If anyone is willing to help me to write a decent vmstat, tell me.
The hacked vmstat will coredump on a non-patched kernel.
