[PATCH v2 4/6] mm: introduce common page state for ballooned memory

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Sat Aug 30 2014 - 12:41:45 EST


From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <k.khlebnikov@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds page state PageBallon() and functions __Set/ClearPageBalloon.
Like PageBuddy() PageBalloon() looks like page-flag but actually this is special
state of page->_mapcount counter. There is no conflict because ballooned pages
cannot be mapped and cannot be in buddy allocator.

Ballooned pages are counted in vmstat counter NR_BALLOON_PAGES, it's shown them
in /proc/meminfo and /proc/meminfo. Also this patch it exports PageBallon into
userspace via /proc/kpageflags as KPF_BALLOON.

All new code is under CONFIG_MEMORY_BALLOON, it should be selected by
ballooning driver which wants use this feature.
