Kuan-Ying Lee 2f060190ef scripts/gdb/page_owner: add page owner support
This GDB script prints page owner information for user to analyze the
memory usage or memory corruption issue.

Example output from an aarch64 system:

(gdb) lx-dump-page-owner --pfn 655360
page_owner tracks the page as allocated
Page last allocated via order 0, gfp_mask: 0x8, pid: 1, tgid: 1 ("swapper/0\000\000\000\000\000\000"), ts 1295948880 ns, free_ts 1011852016 ns

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
