* proc: seqfile convert proc_pid_status to properly handle pid namespacesEric W. Biederman2008-02-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we possibly lookup the pid in the wrong pid namespace. So seq_file convert proc_pid_status which ensures the proper pid namespaces is passed in.

* maps4: add /proc/pid/pagemap interfaceMatt Mackall2008-02-051-1/+199
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This interface provides a mapping for each page in an address space to its physical page frame number, allowing precise determination of what pages are mapped and what pages are shared between processes. New in this version: - headers gone again (as recommended by Dave Hansen and Alan Cox) - 64-bit entries (as per discussion with Andi Kleen) - swap pte information exported (from Dave Hansen) - page walker callback for holes (from Dave Hansen) - direct put_user I/O (as suggested by Rusty Russell) This patch folds in cleanups and swap PTE support from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>.

* maps4: add proportional set size accounting in smapsFengguang Wu2008-02-051-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "proportional set size" (PSS) of a process is the count of pages it has in memory, where each page is divided by the number of processes sharing it. So if a process has 1000 pages all to itself, and 1000 shared with one other process, its PSS will be 1500. - lwn.net: "ELC: How much memory are applications really using?" The PSS proposed by Matt Mackall is a very nice metic for measuring an process's memory footprint. So collect and export it via /proc/<pid>/smaps. Matt Mackall's pagemap/kpagemap and John Berthels's exmap can also do the job. They are comprehensive tools. But for PSS, let's do it in the simple way.

* proc: maps protectionKees Cook2007-05-081-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The /proc/pid/ "maps", "smaps", and "numa_maps" files contain sensitive information about the memory location and usage of processes. Issues: - maps should not be world-readable, especially if programs expect any kind of ASLR protection from local attackers. - maps cannot just be 0400 because "-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" makes glibc check the maps when %n is in a *printf call, and a setuid(getuid()) process wouldn't be able to read its own maps file. (For reference see http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/22/150) - a system-wide toggle is needed to allow prior behavior in the case of non-root applications that depend on access to the maps contents. This change implements a check using "ptrace_may_attach" before allowing access to read the maps contents. To control this protection, the new knob /proc/sys/kernel/maps_protect has been added, with corresponding updates to the procfs documentation.

* smaps: add clear_refs file to clear referenceDavid Rientjes2007-05-071-16/+63
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds /proc/pid/clear_refs. When any non-zero number is written to this file, pte_mkold() and ClearPageReferenced() is called for each pte and its corresponding page, respectively, in that task's VMAs. This file is only writable by the user who owns the task. It is now possible to measure _approximately_ how much memory a task is using by clearing the reference bits with echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs and checking the reference count for each VMA from the /proc/pid/smaps output at a measured time interval. For example, to observe the approximate change in memory footprint for a task, write a script that clears the references (echo 1 > /proc/pid/clear_refs), sleeps, and then greps for Pgs_Referenced and extracts the size in kB. Add the sizes for each VMA together for the total referenced footprint. Moments later, repeat the process and observe the difference. For example, using an efficient Mozilla: accumulated time referenced memory ---------------- ----------------- 0 s 408 kB 1 s 408 kB 2 s 556 kB 3 s 1028 kB 4 s 872 kB 5 s 1956 kB 6 s 416 kB 7 s 1560 kB 8 s 2336 kB 9 s 1044 kB 10 s 416 kB This is a valuable tool to get an approximate measurement of the memory footprint for a task.

* smaps: extract pmd walker from smaps codeDavid Rientjes2007-05-071-27/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extracts the pmd walker from smaps-specific code in fs/proc/task_mmu.c. The new struct pmd_walker includes the struct vm_area_struct of the memory to walk over. Iteration begins at the vma->vm_start and completes at vma->vm_end. A pointer to another data structure may be stored in the private field such as struct mem_size_stats, which acts as the smaps accumulator. For each pmd in the VMA, the action function is called with a pointer to its struct vm_area_struct, a pointer to the pmd_t, its start and end addresses, and the private field. The interface for walking pmd's in a VMA for fs/proc/task_mmu.c is now: void for_each_pmd(struct vm_area_struct *vma, void (*action)(struct vm_area_struct *vma, pmd_t *pmd, unsigned long addr, unsigned long end, void *private), void *private); Since the pmd walker is now extracted from the smaps code, smaps_one_pmd() is invoked for each pmd in the VMA. Its behavior and efficiency is identical to the existing implementation.

* [PATCH] vdso: randomize the i386 vDSO by moving it into a vmaIngo Molnar2006-06-281-12/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it. Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do single-stepping and other debugging features. It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the VDSO). There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore. There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned on/off. (This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.) This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell started this patch and i completed it.

* [PATCH] proc: don't lock task_structs indefinitelyEric W. Biederman2006-06-261-22/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every inode in /proc holds a reference to a struct task_struct. If a directory or file is opened and remains open after the the task exits this pinning continues. With 8K stacks on a 32bit machine the amount pinned per file descriptor is about 10K. Normally I would figure a reasonable per user process limit is about 100 processes. With 80 processes, with a 1000 file descriptors each I can trigger the 00M killer on a 32bit kernel, because I have pinned about 800MB of useless data. This patch replaces the struct task_struct pointer with a pointer to a struct task_ref which has a struct task_struct pointer. The so the pinning of dead tasks does not happen. The code now has to contend with the fact that the task may now exit at any time. Which is a little but not muh more complicated. With this change it takes about 1000 processes each opening up 1000 file descriptors before I can trigger the OOM killer. Much better. [mlp@google.com: task_mmu small fixes] Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] smaps: shared fixNick Piggin2006-03-071-5/+4Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The point of the smaps "shared" is to count the number of pages that are mapped by more than one process, according to Mauricio Lin. However, smaps uses page_count for this, so it will return a false positive for every page that is mapped by just that one process, which is also in pagecache or swapcache. There are false positive situations for anonymous pages not in swapcache as well: - page reclaim, migration - get_user_pages (eg. direct-io, ptrace) Use page_mapcount instead, to count the number of mappings to the page. Use vm_normal_page so that weird things like /dev/mem aren't counted either.

* mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logicLinus Torvalds2005-11-281-4/+3Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP. It allows a VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM never touches, and never considers to be normal pages. Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or indeed mark them any other way. It just works.

Need one for WRITE, another for TOUCH (it was the accessed flag before: vanished along with check_user_page_readable, but surely get_numa_maps is wrong to mark every page it finds as accessed), another for GET. And another, ANON to dispose of untouched_anonymous_page: it seems silly for that to descend a second time, let follow_page observe if there was no page table and return ZERO_PAGE if so.

But whereas pte_alloc loops tested with the "atomic" pmd_present, these loops are testing with pmd_none, which on i386 PAE tests both lower and upper halves. That's now unsafe, so add a cast into pmd_none to test only the vital lower half: we lose a little sensitivity to a corrupt middle directory, but not enough to worry about. It appears that i386 and UML were the only architectures vulnerable in this way, and pgd and pud no problem.

* [PATCH] mm: update_hiwaters just in timeHugh Dickins2005-10-301-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | update_mem_hiwater has attracted various criticisms, in particular from those concerned with mm scalability. Originally it was called whenever rss or total_vm got raised. Then many of those callsites were replaced by a timer tick call from account_system_time. Now Frank van Maarseveen reports that to be found inadequate. How about this? Works for Frank. Replace update_mem_hiwater, a poor combination of two unrelated ops, by macros update_hiwater_rss and update_hiwater_vm. Don't attempt to keep mm->hiwater_rss up to date at timer tick, nor every time we raise rss (usually by 1): those are hot paths. Do the opposite, update only when about to lower rss (usually by many), or just before final accounting in do_exit. Handle mm->hiwater_vm in the same way, though it's much less of an issue. Demand that whoever collects these hiwater statistics do the work of taking the maximum with rss or total_vm. And there has been no collector of these hiwater statistics in the tree. The new convention needs an example, so match Frank's usage by adding a VmPeak line above VmSize to /proc/<pid>/status, and also a VmHWM line above VmRSS (High-Water-Mark or High-Water-Memory). There was a particular anomaly during mremap move, that hiwater_vm might be captured too high. A fleeting such anomaly remains, but it's quickly corrected now, whereas before it would stick. What locking? None: if the app is racy then these statistics will be racy, it's not worth any overhead to make them exact. But whenever it suits, hiwater_vm is updated under exclusive mmap_sem, and hiwater_rss under page_table_lock (for now) or with preemption disabled (later on): without going to any trouble, minimize the time between reading current values and updating, to minimize those occasions when a racing thread bumps a count up and back down in between.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was lazy when we added anon_rss, and chose to change as few places as possible. So currently each anonymous page has to be counted twice, in rss and in anon_rss. Which won't be so good if those are atomic counts in some configurations. Change that around: keep file_rss and anon_rss separately, and add them together (with get_mm_rss macro) when the total is needed - reading two atomics is much cheaper than updating two atomics.

* [PATCH] Convert mempolicies to nodemask_tAndi Kleen2005-10-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The NUMA policy code predated nodemask_t so it used open coded bitmaps. Convert everything to nodemask_t. Big patch, but shouldn't have any actual behaviour changes (except I removed one unnecessary check against node_online_map and one unnecessary BUG_ON) Signed-off-by: "Andi Kleen" <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] add /proc/pid/smapsMauricio Lin2005-09-051-42/+183
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a "smaps" entry to /proc/pid: show howmuch memory is resident in each mapping. People that want to perform a memory consumption analysing can use it mainly if someone needs to figure out which libraries can be reduced for embedded systems. So the new features are the physical size of shared and clean [or dirty]; private and clean [or dirty]. Take a look the example below: # cat /proc/4576/smaps 08048000-080dc000 r-xp /bin/bash Size: 592 KB Rss: 500 KB Shared_Clean: 500 KB Shared_Dirty: 0 KB Private_Clean: 0 KB Private_Dirty: 0 KB 080dc000-080e2000 rw-p /bin/bash Size: 24 KB Rss: 24 KB Shared_Clean: 0 KB Shared_Dirty: 0 KB Private_Clean: 0 KB Private_Dirty: 24 KB 080e2000-08116000 rw-p Size: 208 KB Rss: 208 KB Shared_Clean: 0 KB Shared_Dirty: 0 KB Private_Clean: 0 KB Private_Dirty: 208 KB b7e2b000-b7e34000 r-xp /lib/tls/libnss_files-2.3.2.so Size: 36 KB Rss: 12 KB Shared_Clean: 12 KB Shared_Dirty: 0 KB Private_Clean: 0 KB Private_Dirty: 0 KB ... (Includes a cleanup from "Richard Purdie" <rpurdie@rpsys.net>) From: Torsten Foertsch <torsten.foertsch@gmx.net> show_smap calls first show_map and then prints its additional information to the seq_file. show_map checks if all it has to print fits into the buffer and if yes marks the current vma as written. While that is correct for show_map it is not for show_smap. Here the vma should be marked as written only after the additional information is also written. The attached patch cures the problem. It moves the functionality of the show_map function to a new function show_map_internal that is called with an additional struct mem_size_stats* argument. Then show_map calls show_map_internal with NULL as struct mem_size_stats* whereas show_smap calls it with a real pointer. Now the final if (m->count < m->size) /* vma is copied successfully */ m->version = (vma != get_gate_vma(task))? vma->vm_start: 0; is done only if the whole entry fits into the buffer.

* [PATCH] /proc/<pid>/numa_maps to show on which nodes pages resideChristoph Lameter2005-09-051-0/+132
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112085728500002&r=1&w=2 I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration. There was a small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the display of the locality of the pages in use by a process. I reworked that patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information about the vma's of a process. numa_maps is indexes by the start address found in /proc/<pid>/maps. F.e. with this patch you can see the page use of the "getty" process: margin:/proc/12008 # cat maps 00000000-00004000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 2000000000000000-200000000002c000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000038000-2000000000040000 rw-p 00028000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000040000-2000000000044000 rw-p 2000000000040000 00:00 0 2000000000058000-2000000000260000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000260000-2000000000268000 ---p 00208000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000268000-2000000000274000 rw-p 00200000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000274000-2000000000280000 rw-p 2000000000274000 00:00 0 2000000000280000-20000000002b4000 r--p 00000000 08:04 9126923 /usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_CTYPE 2000000000300000-2000000000308000 r--s 00000000 08:04 60071467 /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache 2000000000318000-2000000000328000 rw-p 2000000000318000 00:00 0 4000000000000000-4000000000008000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000004000-6000000000008000 rw-p 00004000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000008000-600000000002c000 rw-p 6000000000008000 00:00 0 [heap] 60000fff7fffc000-60000fff80000000 rw-p 60000fff7fffc000 00:00 0 60000ffffff44000-60000ffffff98000 rw-p 60000ffffff44000 00:00 0 [stack] a000000000000000-a000000000020000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] cat numa_maps 2000000000000000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=11 Mapped=11 N0=4 N1=3 N2=2 N3=2 2000000000038000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000040000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 2000000000058000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=61 Mapped=61 N0=14 N1=15 N2=16 N3=16 2000000000268000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000274000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=3 Mapped=3 Anon=3 N0=3 2000000000280000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=3 Mapped=3 N0=3 2000000000300000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N0=2 2000000000318000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N2=1 4000000000000000 default MaxRef=6 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N1=2 6000000000004000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 6000000000008000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000fff7fffc000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000ffffff44000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 getty uses ld.so.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-171-0/+235
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
