5 The CMA debugfs interface is useful to retrieve basic information out of the
6 different CMA areas and to test allocation/release in each of the areas.
8 Each CMA area represents a directory under <debugfs>/cma/, represented by
9 its CMA name like below:
11 <debugfs>/cma/<cma_name>
13 The structure of the files created under that directory is as follows:
15 - [RO] base_pfn: The base PFN (Page Frame Number) of the zone.
16 - [RO] count: Amount of memory in the CMA area.
17 - [RO] order_per_bit: Order of pages represented by one bit.
18 - [RO] bitmap: The bitmap of page states in the zone.
19 - [WO] alloc: Allocate N pages from that CMA area. For example::
21 echo 5 > <debugfs>/cma/<cma_name>/alloc
23 would try to allocate 5 pages from the 'cma_name' area.
25 - [WO] free: Free N pages from that CMA area, similar to the above.
