[RFC PATCH 1/5] mm: print more information about mapping in __dump_page

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Wed Nov 07 2018 - 05:18:50 EST


From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

__dump_page prints the mapping pointer but that is quite unhelpful
for many reports because the pointer itself only helps to distinguish
anon/ksm mappings from other ones (because of lowest bits
set). Sometimes it would be much more helpful to know what kind of
mapping that is actually and if we know this is a file mapping then also
try to resolve the dentry name.
