RFC v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230509185419.1088297-1... For background and interfaces, see the RFC v1 posting. Changes from v1 -> v2: - Refactored the patchs into smaller pieces - Renamed interfaces and functions from wss to wsr (Working Set Reporting) - Fixed build errors when CONFIG_WSR is not set - Changed working_set_num_bins to u8 for virtio-balloon - Added support for per-NUMA node reporting for virtio-balloon The RFC adds CONFIG_WSR and requires MGLRU to function. T.J. and I aim to support the active/inactive LRU and working set estimation from the userspace as well. This series should be build with the following configs: CONFIG_LRU_GEN=y CONFIG_LRU_GEN_ENABLED=y CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON=y CONFIG_WSR=y TODO list: - There's a hack in mm/vmscan.c that calls into the virtio-balloon driver, which doesn't work if CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON=m. T.J. Alumbaugh (talumbau@google.com) and I plan on solving this problem with a working set notification mechanism that would allow multiple consumers to subscribe for working set changes. - memory.reaccess.histogram does not consider swapped out pages to be reaccessed. I plan to implement this with the shadow entry computed from mm/workingset.c.
