Content Explanation Of: /proc/fs/ext4/device_name/mb_groups
I've been wondering, what are the explanation of the columns in the /proc/fs/ext4/device_name/mb_groups
file. The columns are:
#group: free frags first [ 2^0 2^1 2^2 2^3 2^4 2^5 2^6 2^7 2^8 2^9 2^10 2^11 2^12 2^13 ]
What's the meaning of every column ?

The file contains information on the buddy group cache of that specific disk and it's useful for the fragmentation status of said disk.
The fields which I found are for a slightly different output, but at least it's a little more info.:
#group: free free frags first pa [ 2^0 2^1 2^2 2^3 2^4 2^5 2^6 2^7 2^8 2^9
2^10 2^11 2^12 2^13]
#group number
Available blocks in the group
Blocks free on a disk
Number of free fragments
First free block in the group
Number of preallocated chunks (not blocks)
A series of available chunks of different sizes
I got my info from here and here
Thanks! I wasn't looking for a very deep explanation anyhow!
