From 5b94ce2fcae2542c4d5d49176fa23eea638dc7b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Changhee Han Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2020 16:03:22 -0700 Subject: tools/vm/page_owner_sort.c: filter out unneeded line To see a sorted result from page_owner, there must be a tiresome preprocessing step before running page_owner_sort. This patch simply filters out lines which start with "PFN" while reading the page owner report.
