Report time spent in memory compaction.
Memory compaction is a feature in the Linux kernel that defragments memory
by moving used pages to create larger contiguous blocks of free memory. This
is particularly useful for allocating huge pages.
This script processes trace events related to memory compaction and reports:
- Total time spent in compaction (stall time).
- Statistics for page migration (moved vs. failed).
- Statistics for the free scanner (scanned vs. isolated pages).
- Statistics for the migration scanner (scanned vs. isolated pages).
Definitions:
- **Compaction**: Defragmenting memory by moving allocated pages.
- **Migration**: Moving pages from their current location to free pages found by the free scanner.
- **Free Scanner**: Scans memory (typically from the end of a zone) to find free pages.
- **Migration Scanner**: Scans memory (typically from the beginning of a zone)
to find pages to move.
- **Isolated Pages**: Pages that have been temporarily removed from the buddy
system for migration or as migration targets.
Ported from tools/perf/scripts/python/compaction-times.py to the modern perf Python module.
