[RFC 1/1] mm: Add per-task struct tlb counters
From: Joe Damato
Date: Tue Sep 13 2022 - 21:53:50 EST
TLB shootdowns are tracked globally, but on a busy system it can be
difficult to disambiguate the source of TLB shootdowns.
Add two counter fields:
- nrtlbflush: number of tlb flush events received
- ngtlbflush: number of tlb flush events generated
Expose those fields in /proc/[pid]/stat so that they can be analyzed
alongside similar metrics (e.g. min_flt and maj_flt).
