Add a write-only module parameter 'flush' that triggers immediate page reporting. The value specifies a page budget: at least this many pages (at page_reporting_order) will be reported, or all unreported pages if fewer remain. The actual number reported may exceed the budget since each reporting pass processes a full cycle across all zones.
This is helpful when there is a lot of memory freed quickly, and a single cycle may not process all free pages due to internal budget limits. echo 512 > /sys/module/page_reporting/parameters/flush Signed-off-by: Michael S.
