I am playing around with getting information about page faults and I noticed that there is a probe alias for the entry for the pagefault code. However, there is no matching probe point for the return. It is useful to look at the return value to determine what kind of page fault occurred (major or minor). The attached patch provides a similar probe point for the return point. any comments on the patch?

I see that you committed it, and added a variable for the return value (fault_type). Could you elaborate in the documentation what the possible types are (major, minor) and their values?


Thanks,

Josh
