[PATCH] mm: added node_reclaim successes to VM event counters

From: Matthew Cassell
Date: Mon Jul 22 2024 - 13:13:33 EST


/proc/vmstat currently shows the number of node_reclaim() failures when
vm.zone_reclaim_mode is set appropriately. It would be convenient to have
the number of successes right next to zone_reclaim_failed (similar to
compaction and migration).

While just a trivially addition to the vmstat file. It was helpful during
benchmarking to not have to probe node_reclaim() to observe the
success/failure ratio.
