Hi,
On larger systems, the amount of output dumped on the console when you
do SysRq-M is beyond insane. This patch is trying to reduce it
somewhat as even with the smaller NUMA systems that have hit the
desktop this seems to be a fair thing to do.
The philosophy I have taken is as follows:
1) If a zone is empty, don't tell, we don't need yet another line
telling us so. The information is available since one can look up
the fact how many zones were initialized in the first place.
2) Put as much information on a line is possible, if it can be done
in one line, rahter than two, then do it in one. I tried to format
the temperature stuff for easy reading.
Comments?
Cheers,
Jes
Change show_free_areas() to not print lines for empty zones. If no zone
output is printed, the zone is empty. This reduces the number of lines
dumped to the console in sysrq on a large system by several thousand
lines.
Change the zone temperature printouts to use one line per CPU instead
of two lines (one hot, one cold). On a 1024 CPU, 1024 node system, this
reduces the console output by over a million lines of output.
While this is a bigger problem on large NUMA systems, it is also
applicable to smaller desktop sized and mid range NUMA systems.
