linux-page-fault-experiment

This repository contains a Linux kernel module that obtains the details of a process's page faults. We use this to briefly analyze page faults on a modern Linux system.

In particular, we cover the behavior resulting from random, sequential, and striding file access.

The written report can be read here.
