Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: page_alloc: dump migrate-failed pages
Date: Mon,  8 Mar 2021 12:20:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210308202047.1903802-1-minchan@kernel.org> (raw)

alloc_contig_range is usually used on cma area or movable zone.
It's critical if the page migration fails on those areas so
dump more debugging message.

page refcount, mapcount with page flags on dump_page are
helpful information to deduce the culprit. Furthermore,
dump_page_owner was super helpful to find long term pinner
who initiated the page allocation.

Admin could enable the dump like this(by default, disabled)

	echo "func dump_migrate_failure_pages +p" > control

Admin could disable it.

	echo "func dump_migrate_failure_pages =_" > control

* from v1 - https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210217163603.429062-1-minchan@kernel.org/
  * use dynamic debugging with system wide instead of per-call site - mhocko
