[PATCH v2] mm/vmstat: Move pgdemote_* to per-node stats

From: Li Zhijian
Date: Thu Nov 02 2023 - 23:15:13 EST


Demotion will migrate pages across nodes. Previously, only the global
demotion statistics were accounted for. Changed them to per-node
statistics, making it easier to observe where demotion occurs on each
node.

This will help to identify which nodes are under pressure.

This patch also make pgdemote_* behind CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING, since
demotion is not available for !CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING

With this patch, here is a sample where node0 node1 are DRAM,
node3 is PMEM:
Global stats:
$ grep demote /proc/vmstat
pgdemote_kswapd 254288
pgdemote_direct 113497
pgdemote_khugepaged 0

Per-node stats:
$ grep demote /sys/devices/system/node/node0/vmstat # demotion source
pgdemote_kswapd 68454
pgdemote_direct 83431
pgdemote_khugepaged 0
$ grep demote /sys/devices/system/node/node1/vmstat # demotion source
pgdemote_kswapd 185834
pgdemote_direct 30066
pgdemote_khugepaged 0
$ grep demote /sys/devices/system/node/node3/vmstat # demotion target
pgdemote_kswapd 0
pgdemote_direct 0
pgdemote_khugepaged 0
