tools/vm/slabinfo-gnuplot: use "grep -E" instead of "egrep"

2022-12-08T10:23:04+00:00

commit a435874bf626f55d7147026b059008c8de89fbb8 upstream.

The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:

	egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E

fix this up by moving the related file to use "grep -E" instead.

  sed -i "s/egrep/grep -E/g" `grep egrep -rwl tools/vm`

Here are the steps to install the latest grep:

  wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-3.8.tar.gz
  tar xf grep-3.8.tar.gz
  cd grep-3.8 && ./configure && make
  sudo make install
  export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

tools/vm/slabinfo: use alphabetic order when two values are equal

2022-08-25T09:18:25+00:00

commit 4f5ceb8851f0081af54313abbf56de1615911faf upstream.

When the number of partial slabs in each cache is the same (e.g., the
value are 0), the results of the `slabinfo -X -N5` and `slabinfo -P -N5`
are different.

/ # slabinfo -X -N5
...

This problem is caused by the sort_slabs().  So let's use alphabetic order
when two values are equal in the sort_slabs().

By the way, the content of the `slabinfo -h` is not aligned because the

`-P|--partial Sort by number of partial slabs`

uses tabs instead of spaces.  So let's use spaces instead of tabs to fix
it.

tools/vm/page-types: remove dependency on opt_file for idle page tracking

2021-10-09T12:39:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit ebaeab2fe87987cef28eb5ab174c42cd28594387 ]

Idle page tracking can also be used for process address space, not only
file mappings.

Without this change, using with '-i' option for process address space
encounters below errors reported.

  $ sudo ./page-types -p $(pidof bash) -i
  mark page idle: Bad file descriptor
  mark page idle: Bad file descriptor

tools/vm: fix cross-compile build

2020-04-29T14:33:15+00:00

commit cf01699ee220c38099eb3e43ce3d10690c8b7060 upstream.

Commit 7ed1c1901fe5 ("tools: fix cross-compile var clobbering") moved
the setup of the CC variable to tools/scripts/Makefile.include to make
the behavior consistent across all the tools Makefiles.

As the vm tools missed the include we end up with the wrong CC in a
cross-compiling evironment.

tools/vm/slabinfo: add sorting info to help menu

2019-07-12T18:05:46+00:00

Passing more than one sorting option has undefined behaviour.

Add an explicit statement as such to the help menu, this also has the
advantage of highlighting all the sorting options.

tools/vm/slabinfo: add option to sort by partial slabs

2019-07-12T18:05:46+00:00

We would like to get a better view of the level of fragmentation within
the SLUB allocator.  Total number of partial slabs is an indicator of
fragmentation.

Add a command line option (-P | --partial) to sort the slab list by total
number of partial slabs.

tools/vm/slabinfo: add partial slab listing to -X

2019-07-12T18:05:46+00:00

We would like to see how fragmented the SLUB allocator is, one window into
fragmentation is the total number of partial slabs.

Currently `slabinfo -X` shows slabs sorted by loss and by size.  We can
use this option to also show slabs sorted by number of partial slabs.

Option '-X' can be used in conjunction with '-N' to control the number of
slabs shown e.g.  list of top 5 slabs:

	slabinfo -X -N5

Add list of slabs ordered by number of partial slabs to output of
`slabinfo -X`.

tools/vm/slabinfo: order command line options

2019-07-12T18:05:46+00:00

During recent discussion on LKML over SLAB vs SLUB it was suggested by
Jesper that it would be nice to have a tool to view the current
fragmentation of the slab allocators.  CC list for this set is taken
from that thread.

For SLUB we have all the information for this already exposed by the
kernel and also we have a userspace tool for displaying this info:

	tools/vm/slabinfo.c

Extend slabinfo to improve the fragmentation information by enabling
sorting of caches by number of partial slabs.

Also add cache list sorted in this manner to the output of `slabinfo -X`.

This patch (of 4):

get_opt() has a spurious character within the option string.  Remove it
and reorder the options in alphabetic order so that it is easier to keep
the options correct.  Use the same ordering for command help output and
long option handling code.
