But a couple of nits/questions anyway, On 09/15, Jerome Marchand wrote: > > +The ShmXXX lines only appears for shmem mapping.

And in fact "not mapped" looks confusing (at least to me). IIUC it is actually mapped even by this process, just it never tried to fault these (resident or swapped) pages in.

And I am not sure why we ignore SHMEM_SWAPCACHE...
