proc: export more page flags in /proc/kpageflags
Export all page flags faithfully in /proc/kpageflags.
11. KPF_MMAP (pseudo flag) memory mapped page
12. KPF_ANON (pseudo flag) memory mapped page (anonymous)
13. KPF_SWAPCACHE page is in swap cache
14. KPF_SWAPBACKED page is swap/RAM backed
15. KPF_COMPOUND_HEAD (*)
16. KPF_COMPOUND_TAIL (*)
17. KPF_HUGE hugeTLB pages
18. KPF_UNEVICTABLE page is in the unevictable LRU list
19. KPF_HWPOISON(TBD) hardware detected corruption
20. KPF_NOPAGE (pseudo flag) no page frame at the address
32-39. more obscure flags for kernel developers
(*) For compound pages, exporting _both_ head/tail info enables
users to tell where a compound page starts/ends, and its order.
The accompanying page-types tool will handle the details like decoupling
overloaded flags and hiding obscure flags to normal users.
Thanks to KOSAKI and Andi for their valuable recommendations!
