2022-01-15mm: migrate: correct the hugetlb migration statsBaolin Wang
Correct the migration stats for hugetlb with using compound_nr() instead of thp_nr_pages(), meanwhile change 'nr_failed_pages' to record the number of normal pages failed to migrate, including THP and hugetlb, and 'nr_succeeded' will record the number of normal pages migrated successfully.

2020-08-12mm/vmstat: add events for THP migration without splitAnshuman Khandual
Add following new vmstat events which will help in validating THP migration without split. Statistics reported through these new VM events will help in performance debugging. 1. THP_MIGRATION_SUCCESS 2. THP_MIGRATION_FAILURE 3. THP_MIGRATION_SPLIT In addition, these new events also update normal page migration statistics appropriately via PGMIGRATE_SUCCESS and PGMIGRATE_FAILURE. While here, this updates current trace event 'mm_migrate_pages' to accommodate now available THP statistics.

2019-06-14docs: cgroup-v1: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rstMauro Carvalho Chehab
Convert the cgroup-v1 files to ReST format, in order to allow a later addition to the admin-guide. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

2018-04-16Merge branch 'mm-rst' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet
Mike Rapoport says: These patches convert files in Documentation/vm to ReST format, add an initial index and link it to the top level documentation. There are no contents changes in the documentation, except few spelling fixes. The relatively large diffstat stems from the indentation and paragraph wrapping changes. I've tried to keep the formatting as consistent as possible, but I could miss some places that needed markup and add some markup where it was not necessary. [jc: significant conflicts in vm/hmm.rst]
