tools/vm/page_owner_sort.c: support for multi-value selection in single argument
When viewing page owner information, we may want to select blocks whose PID/TGID/TASK_COMM_NAME appears in a user-specified list for data analysis and aggregation. But currently page_owner_sort only supports selecting blocks associated with only one specified PID/TGID/TASK_COMM_NAME. Therefore, following adjustments are made to fix the problem: 1. Enhance selecting function to support the selection of multiple PIDs/TGIDs/TASK_COMM_NAMEs. The enhanced usages are as follows: --pid <pidlist> Select by pid. This selects the blocks whose PID numbers appear in <pidlist>. --tgid <tgidlist> Select by tgid. This selects the blocks whose TGID numbers appear in <tgidlist>. --name <cmdlist> Select by task command name. This selects the blocks whose task command name appear in <cmdlist>. Where <pidlist>, <tgidlist>, <cmdlist> are single arguments in the form of a comma-separated list,which offers a way to specify individual selecting rules. For example, if you want to select blocks whose tgids are 1, 2 or 3, you have to use 4 commands as follows: ./page_owner_sort <input> <output1> --tgid=1 ./page_owner_sort <input> <output2> --tgid=2 ./page_owner_sort <input> <output3> --tgid=3 cat <output1> <output2> <output3> > <output> With this patch, you can use only 1 command to obtain the same result as above: ./page_owner_sort <input> <output1> --tgid=1,2,3 2. Update explanations of --pid, --tgid and --name in the function usage() and the document(Documents/vm/page_owner.rst).
