mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that. Below is people who has "Signed-off-by" in the patches in Andrew's tree.

mm, page_owner: track and print last migrate reason During migration, page_owner info is now copied with the rest of the page, so the stacktrace leading to free page allocation during migration is overwritten. For debugging purposes, it might be however useful to know that the page has been migrated since its initial allocation. This might happen many times during the lifetime for different reasons and fully tracking this, especially with stacktraces would incur extra memory costs. As a compromise, store and print the migrate_reason of the last migration that occurred to the page. This is enough to distinguish compaction, numa balancing etc. Example page_owner entry after the patch: Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x24200ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE) PFN 628753 type Movable Block 1228 type Movable Flags 0x1fffff80040030(dirty|lru|swapbacked) [<ffffffff811682c4>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x134/0x230 [<ffffffff811b6325>] alloc_pages_vma+0xb5/0x250 [<ffffffff81177491>] shmem_alloc_page+0x61/0x90 [<ffffffff8117a438>] shmem_getpage_gfp+0x678/0x960 [<ffffffff8117c2b9>] shmem_fallocate+0x329/0x440 [<ffffffff811de600>] vfs_fallocate+0x140/0x230 [<ffffffff811df434>] SyS_fallocate+0x44/0x70 [<ffffffff8158cc2e>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x71 Page has been migrated, last migrate reason: compaction Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

(4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following.

(4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm, page_owner: print migratetype of page and pageblock, symbolic flags The information in /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner includes the migratetype of the pageblock the page belongs to. This is also checked against the page's migratetype (as declared by gfp_flags during its allocation), and the page is reported as Fallback if its migratetype differs from the pageblock's one. t This is somewhat misleading because in fact fallback allocation is not the only reason why these two can differ. It also doesn't direcly provide the page's migratetype, although it's possible to derive that from the gfp_flags. It's arguably better to print both page and pageblock's migratetype and leave the interpretation to the consumer than to suggest fallback allocation as the only possible reason. While at it, we can print the migratetypes as string the same way as /proc/pagetypeinfo does, as some of the numeric values depend on kernel configuration. For that, this patch moves the migratetype_names array from #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS part of mm/vmstat.c to mm/page_alloc.c and exports it. With the new format strings for flags, we can now also provide symbolic page and gfp flags in the /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner file. This replaces the positional printing of page flags as single letters, which might have looked nicer, but was limited to a subset of flags, and required the user to remember the letters.

It's arguably better to print both page and pageblock's migratetype and leave the interpretation to the consumer than to suggest fallback allocation as the only possible reason. While at it, we can print the migratetypes as string the same way as /proc/pagetypeinfo does, as some of the numeric values depend on kernel configuration. For that, this patch moves the migratetype_names array from #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS part of mm/vmstat.c to mm/page_alloc.c and exports it. With the new format strings for flags, we can now also provide symbolic page and gfp flags in the /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner file. This replaces the positional printing of page flags as single letters, which might have looked nicer, but was limited to a subset of flags, and required the user to remember the letters.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

mm, page_owner: dump page owner info from dump_page() The page_owner mechanism is useful for dealing with memory leaks. By reading /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner one can determine the stack traces leading to allocations of all pages, and find e.g. a buggy driver.

mm, page_owner: dump page owner info from dump_page() The page_owner mechanism is useful for dealing with memory leaks. By reading /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner one can determine the stack traces leading to allocations of all pages, and find e.g. a buggy driver. This information might be also potentially useful for debugging, such as the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() calls to dump_page(). So let's print the stored info from dump_page().

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

Example output: page:ffffea000292f1c0 count:1 mapcount:0 mapping:ffff8800b2f6cc18 index:0x91d flags: 0x1fffff8001002c(referenced|uptodate|lru|mappedtodisk) page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(1) page->mem_cgroup:ffff8801392c5000 page allocated via order 0, migratetype Movable, gfp_mask 0x24213ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_COLD|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_NORETRY) [<ffffffff811682c4>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x134/0x230 [<ffffffff811b40c8>] alloc_pages_current+0x88/0x120 [<ffffffff8115e386>] __page_cache_alloc+0xe6/0x120 [<ffffffff8116ba6c>] __do_page_cache_readahead+0xdc/0x240 [<ffffffff8116bd05>] ondemand_readahead+0x135/0x260 [<ffffffff8116be9c>] page_cache_async_readahead+0x6c/0x70 [<ffffffff811604c2>] generic_file_read_iter+0x3f2/0x760 [<ffffffff811e0dc7>] __vfs_read+0xa7/0xd0 page has been migrated, last migrate reason: compaction Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

mm/page_owner: use stackdepot to store stacktrace Currently, we store each page's allocation stacktrace on corresponding page_ext structure and it requires a lot of memory. This causes the problem that memory tight system doesn't work well if page_owner is enabled. Moreover, even with this large memory consumption, we cannot get full stacktrace because we allocate memory at boot time and just maintain 8 stacktrace slots to balance memory consumption. We could increase it to more but it would make system unusable or change system behaviour. To solve the problem, this patch uses stackdepot to store stacktrace. It obviously provides memory saving but there is a drawback that stackdepot could fail. stackdepot allocates memory at runtime so it could fail if system has not enough memory. But, most of allocation stack are generated at very early time and there are much memory at this time. So, failure would not happen easily. And, one failure means that we miss just one page's allocation stacktrace so it would not be a big problem. In this patch, when memory allocation failure happens, we store special stracktrace handle to the page that is failed to save stacktrace. With it, user can guess memory usage properly even if failure happens. Memory saving looks as following. (4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

(4GB memory system with page_owner) (before the patch -> after the patch) static allocation: 92274688 bytes -> 25165824 bytes dynamic allocation after boot + kernel build: 0 bytes -> 327680 bytes total: 92274688 bytes -> 25493504 bytes 72% reduction in total. Note that implementation looks complex than someone would imagine because there is recursion issue. stackdepot uses page allocator and page_owner is called at page allocation. Using stackdepot in page_owner could re-call page allcator and then page_owner. That is a recursion. To detect and avoid it, whenever we obtain stacktrace, recursion is checked and page_owner is set to dummy information if found. Dummy information means that this page is allocated for page_owner feature itself (such as stackdepot) and it's understandable behavior for user.

mm/page_owner: keep track of page owners This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.
