writeback: add nr_dirtied and nr_written to /proc/vmstat
To help developers and applications gain visibility into writeback behaviour adding two entries to vm_stat_items and /proc/vmstat. This will allow us to track the "written" and "dirtied" counts. # grep nr_dirtied /proc/vmstat nr_dirtied 3747 # grep nr_written /proc/vmstat nr_written 3618 Signed-off-by: Michael Rubin <mrubin@google.com> Reviewed-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
