[PATCH v3 09/12] mm: dump_page(): better diagnostics for huge pinned pages

From: John Hubbard
Date: Fri Jan 31 2020 - 22:41:20 EST


As part of pin_user_pages() and related API calls, pages are
"dma-pinned". For the case of compound pages of order > 1, the per-page
accounting of dma pins is accomplished via the 3rd struct page in the
compound page. In order to support debugging of any pin_user_pages()-
related problems, enhance dump_page() so as to report the pin count
in that case.

Documentation/core-api/pin_user_pages.rst is also updated accordingly.

because there is a noticeable performance drop in unpin_user_page(), when they
are activated.

+Other diagnostics
+=================
+
+dump_page() has been enhanced slightly, to handle these new counting fields, and
+to better report on compound pages in general. Specifically, for compound pages
+with order > 1, the exact (hpage_pinned_refcount) pincount is reported.
