[PATCH 1/8] tracing, vmscan: Add trace events for LRU list shrinking
From: Mel Gorman
Date: Wed Sep 15 2010 - 08:29:42 EST
This patch adds a trace event for shrink_inactive_list() and updates the
sample postprocessing script appropriately. It can be used to determine
how many pages were reclaimed and for non-lumpy reclaim where exactly the
pages were reclaimed from.
