tools/vm/page-types: remove dependency on opt_file for idle page tracking

2021-09-24T23:13:35+00:00

Idle page tracking can also be used for process address space, not only file mappings. Without this change, using with '-i' option for process address space encounters below errors reported. $ sudo ./page-types -p $(pidof bash) -i mark page idle: Bad file descriptor mark page idle: Bad file descriptor mark page idle: Bad file descriptor mark page idle: Bad file descriptor ...

mm: Add PG_arch_2 page flag

2020-09-04T11:46:06+00:00

For arm64 MTE support it is necessary to be able to mark pages that contain user space visible tags that will need to be saved/restored e.g. when swapped out. To support this add a new arch specific flag (PG_arch_2). This flag is only available on 64-bit architectures due to the limited number of spare page flags on the 32-bit ones.

mm: convert PG_balloon to PG_offline

2019-03-06T05:07:14+00:00

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline. We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline (e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()). We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later on. Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched (e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages from dumps. We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm (and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it, document PGTABLE.

tools/vm/page-types.c: fix "kpagecount returned fewer pages than expected" failures

2018-12-28T20:11:50+00:00

Because kpagecount_read() fakes success if map counts are not being collected, clamp the page count passed to it by walk_pfn() to the pages value returned by the preceding call to kpageflags_read().

tools/vm/page-types.c: add support for idle page tracking

2018-08-17T23:20:28+00:00

Add a flag which causes page-types to use the kernels's idle page tracking to mark pages idle. As the tool already prints the idle flag if set, subsequent runs will show which pages have been accessed since last run.

tools/vm/page-types.c: include shared map counts

2018-08-17T23:20:28+00:00

Add a new flag that will read kpagecount for each PFN and print out the number of times the page is mapped along with the flags in the listing view. This information is useful in understanding and optimizing memory usage. Identifying pages which are not shared allows us to focus on adjusting the memory layout or access patterns for the sole owning process. Knowing the number of processes that share a page tells us how many other times we must make the same adjustments or how many processes to potentially disable.

mm: mark pages in use for page tables

2018-06-08T00:34:37+00:00

Define a new PageTable bit in the page_type and use it to mark pages in use as page tables. This can be helpful when debugging crashdumps or analysing memory fragmentation. Add a KPF flag to report these pages to userspace and update page-types.c to interpret that flag. Note that only pages currently accounted as NR_PAGETABLES are tracked as PageTable; this does not include pgd/p4d/pud/pmd pages. Those will be the subject of a later patch.

tools, vm: new option to specify kpageflags file

2018-02-01T01:18:40+00:00

page-types currently hardcodes /proc/kpageflags as the file to parse. This works when using the tool to examine the state of pageflags on the same system, but does not allow storing a snapshot of pageflags at a given time to debug issues nor on a different system. This allows the user to specify a saved version of kpageflags with a new page-types -F option.
