What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/isci_id
Date: June 2011
Contact: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com>
Description:
This file contains the enumerated host ID for the Intel
SCU controller. The Intel(R) C600 Series Chipset SATA/SAS
Storage Control Unit embeds up to two 4-port controllers in
a single PCI device. The controllers are enumerated in order
which usually means the lowest number scsi_host corresponds
with the first controller, but this association is not
guaranteed. The 'isci_id' attribute unambiguously identifies
the controller index: '0' for the first controller,
'1' for the second.

5.2.2 memory.vmscan_stat
memory.vmscan_stat includes statistics information for memory scanning and
freeing, reclaiming. The statistics shows memory scanning information since
memory cgroup creation and can be reset to 0 by writing 0 as
#echo 0 > ../memory.vmscan_stat
This file contains following statistics.
[param]_[file_or_anon]_pages_by_[reason]_[under_heararchy]
[param]_elapsed_ns_by_[reason]_[under_hierarchy]
For example,
scanned_file_pages_by_limit indicates the number of scanned
file pages at vmscan.
Now, 3 parameters are supported
scanned - the number of pages scanned by vmscan
rotated - the number of pages activated at vmscan
freed - the number of pages freed by vmscan
If "rotated" is high against scanned/freed, the memcg seems busy.
Now, 2 reason are supported
limit - the memory cgroup's limit
system - global memory pressure + softlimit
(global memory pressure not under softlimit is not handled now)
When under_hierarchy is added in the tail, the number indicates the
total memcg scan of its children and itself.
elapsed_ns is a elapsed time in nanosecond. This may include sleep time
and not indicates CPU usage. So, please take this as just showing
latency.
Here is an example.

The TjMax temperature is set to 85 degrees C if undocumented model specific

(sometimes) documented in processor datasheet.
On CPU models which support it, TjMax is read from a model-specific register.
On other models, it is set to an arbitrary value based on weak heuristics.
If these heuristics don't work for you, you can pass the correct TjMax value
as a module parameter (tjmax).
