[PATCH v8 4/5] mm,page_owner: Filter out stacks by a threshold
Posted by Oscar Salvador 6 months, 4 weeks ago
We want to be able to filter out the stacks based on a threshold we can
can tune.
By writing to 'set_threshold' file, we can adjust the threshold value.

Can't you also read from "set_threshold", so the name "set_threshold"
is misleading. Why not just "threshold"?

Yes, it can also be read.
I guess I was too focused on the set part.
I will rename that one, plus add the {READ,WRITE}_ONCE.

Thanks!

Maybe name it "count_threshold" so it's more clear of whate exactly it's the
threshold of?

This could be written concurrently, so to avoid data races, you can
use WRITE_ONCE(page_owner_stack_threshold, val) and use
READ_ONCE(page_owner_stack_threshold) where it's read.
