Hi,
The patch I posted has not got any response.
Do you think ioremap and vmap information in /proc/meminfo is not useful?
or are you just busy?
<the original message>
Hi,
For long time I've been thought the following equation is correct:
The "MemUsage" is about "Active + Inactive + Slab + PageTables + VmallocUsed" in /proc/meminfo.
(I'm not only the person. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=243657.)
However, some VmallocUsed doesn't really consume MemUsage: ioremap
pages and vmap pages consume just virtual address spaces.
It is a bit helpful for people who want to understand kernel memory
usage to show the number of ioremap and vmap pages in /proc/meminfo.
The following patch adds entries for ioremap and vmap to /proc/meminfo.
