Subject[PATCH 1/5] Promotion and demotion related statistics
Date
Promotion and demotion related statistics can help better understand
the effectiveness of the page placement mechanism. we want to know
among the promoted/demoted pages what is the distribution of anon and
file pages. how much of the demoted pages become promotion candidate
can give us insight on whether the page placement mechanism is thrashing
among the NUMA nodes. we can also use this information to rate limit the
migration across the NUMA nodes.

Promotion can fail for many reasons, e.g., target node having low memory,
page refcount being abnormal, whole system being low on memory etc. Adding
counters to track the failure reasons will give the detailed info about
why and where it fails, and help debugging the system.

To track the demoted pages, PG_demoted bit is introduced for pages that
get demoted. Upon demotion, PG_demoted bit is set in thepage flag. upon
promotion, the bit gets reset for that page.

promotion related statistics:
=============================
pgpromote_candidate - candidates that get selected for promotion
pgpromote_candidate_demoted - promotion candidate that got demoted earlier
pgpromote_candidate_anon - promotion candidate that are anon
pgpromote_candidate_file - promotion candidate that are file
pgpromote_tried - pages that had a try to migrate via NUMA Balancing
pgpromote_file- successfully promoted file pages
pgpromote_anon - successfully promoted anon pages

promotion failure related statistics:
=====================================
pgmigrate_fail_dst_node_full - failed as the target node is full
pgmigrate_fail_numa_isolate - failed in isolating numa page
pgmigrate_fail_nomem - failed as no memory left in the system
pgmigrate_fail_refcount - failed as ref count mismatched

demotion related statistics:
============================
pgdemote_file - successfully demoted file pages
pgdemote_anon - successfully demoted anon pages
