From 5e5b3d2ed3aee6f8bbe38c0945876aacce11ff03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2011 14:14:34 +1000 Subject: vmscan: add shrink_slab tracepoints commit 095760730c1047c69159ce88021a7fa3833502c8 upstream. Stable note: This patch makes later patches easier to apply but otherwise has little to justify it. It is a diagnostic patch that was part of a series addressing excessive slab shrinking after GFP_NOFS failures. There is detailed information on the series' motivation at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/2/42 . It is impossible to understand what the shrinkers are actually doing without instrumenting the code, so add a some tracepoints to allow insight to be gained.
