Commit b7643757 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc/<pid>/maps. Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list, turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc/<pid>/maps needs to look at a million combinations. The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the patch. Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc/<pid>/maps (and /proc/<pid>/numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts. The [stack] annotation inside /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps is retained, as identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation. Siddesh said: "The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and there wasn't a way to do that. I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed employers) the details of their requirement. However, I did do this on my own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the information is available in the thread-specific files" Signed-off-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: "Kirill A.

There are several shortcomings with the accounting of shared memory (SysV shm, shared anonymous mapping, mapping of a tmpfs file). The values in /proc/<pid>/status and <...>/statm don't allow to distinguish between shmem memory and a shared mapping to a regular file, even though theirs implication on memory usage are quite different: during reclaim, file mapping can be dropped or written back on disk, while shmem needs a place in swap. Also, to distinguish the memory occupied by anonymous and file mappings, one has to read the /proc/pid/statm file, which has a field for the file mappings (again, including shmem) and total memory occupied by these mappings (i.e. equivalent to VmRSS in the <...>/status file. Getting the value for anonymous mappings only is thus not exactly user-friendly (the statm file is intended to be rather efficiently machine-readable). To address both of these shortcomings, this patch adds a breakdown of VmRSS in /proc/<pid>/status via new fields RssAnon, RssFile and RssShmem, making use of the previous preparatory patch. These fields tell the user the memory occupied by private anonymous pages, mapped regular files and shmem, respectively. Other existing fields in /status and /statm files are left without change. The /statm file can be extended in the future, if there's a need for that. Example (part of) /proc/pid/status output including the new Rss* fields: VmPeak: 2001008 kB VmSize: 2001004 kB VmLck: 0 kB VmPin: 0 kB VmHWM: 5108 kB VmRSS: 5108 kB RssAnon: 92 kB RssFile: 1324 kB RssShmem: 3692 kB VmData: 192 kB VmStk: 136 kB VmExe: 4 kB VmLib: 1784 kB VmPTE: 3928 kB VmPMD: 20 kB VmSwap: 0 kB HugetlbPages: 0 kB [vbabka@suse.cz: forward-porting, tweak changelog] Signed-off-by: NJerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NVlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: NKonstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@yandex-team.ru> Acked-by: NMichal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: NHugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Currently, /proc/pid/smaps will always show "Swap: 0 kB" for shmem-backed mappings, even if the mapped portion does contain pages that were swapped out. This is because unlike private anonymous mappings, shmem does not change pte to swap entry, but pte_none when swapping the page out. In the smaps page walk, such page thus looks like it was never faulted in. This patch changes smaps_pte_entry() to determine the swap status for such pte_none entries for shmem mappings, similarly to how mincore_page() does it. Swapped out shmem pages are thus accounted for. For private mappings of tmpfs files that COWed some of the pages, swaped out status of the original shmem pages is naturally ignored. If some of the private copies was also swapped out, they are accounted via their page table swap entries, so the resulting reported swap usage is then a sum of both swapped out private copies, and swapped out shmem pages that were not COWed. No double accounting can thus happen. The accounting is arguably still not as precise as for private anonymous mappings, since now we will count also pages that the process in question never accessed, but another process populated them and then let them become swapped out. I believe it is still less confusing and subtle than not showing any swap usage by shmem mappings at all. Swapped out counter might of interest of users who would like to prevent from future swapins during performance critical operation and pre-fault them at their convenience. Especially for larger swapped out regions the cost of swapin is much higher than a fresh page allocation. So a differentiation between pte_none vs. swapped out is important for those usecases. One downside of this patch is that it makes /proc/pid/smaps more expensive for shmem mappings, as we consult the radix tree for each pte_none entry, so the overal complexity is O(n*log(n)). I have measured this on a process that creates a 2GB mapping and dirties single pages with a stride of 2MB, and time how long does it take to cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times. Private anonymous mapping: real 0m0.949s user 0m0.116s sys 0m0.348s Mapping of a /dev/shm/file: real 0m3.831s user 0m0.180s sys 0m3.212s The difference is rather substantial, so the next patch will reduce the cost for shared or read-only mappings. In a less controlled experiment, I've gathered pids of processes on my desktop that have either '/dev/shm/*' or 'SYSV*' in smaps. This included the Chrome browser and some KDE processes. Again, I've run cat /proc/pid/smaps on each 100 times. Before this patch: real 0m9.050s user 0m0.518s sys 0m8.066s After this patch: real 0m9.221s user 0m0.541s sys 0m8.187s This suggests low impact on average systems. Note that this patch doesn't attempt to adjust the SwapPss field for shmem mappings, which would need extra work to determine who else could have the pages mapped. Thus the value stays zero except for COWed swapped out pages in a shmem mapping, which are accounted as usual.

This series is based on Jerome Marchand's [1] so let me quote the first paragraph from there: There are several shortcomings with the accounting of shared memory (sysV shm, shared anonymous mapping, mapping to a tmpfs file). The values in /proc/<pid>/status and statm don't allow to distinguish between shmem memory and a shared mapping to a regular file, even though their implications on memory usage are quite different: at reclaim, file mapping can be dropped or written back on disk while shmem needs a place in swap. As for shmem pages that are swapped-out or in swap cache, they aren't accounted at all. The original motivation for myself is that a customer found (IMHO rightfully) confusing that e.g. top output for process swap usage is unreliable with respect to swapped out shmem pages, which are not accounted for. The fundamental difference between private anonymous and shmem pages is that the latter has PTE's converted to pte_none, and not swapents. As such, they are not accounted to the number of swapents visible e.g. in /proc/pid/status VmSwap row. It might be theoretically possible to use swapents when swapping out shmem (without extra cost, as one has to change all mappers anyway), and on swap in only convert the swapent for the faulting process, leaving swapents in other processes until they also fault (so again no extra cost). But I don't know how many assumptions this would break, and it would be too disruptive change for a relatively small benefit. Instead, my approach is to document the limitation of VmSwap, and provide means to determine the swap usage for shmem areas for those who are interested and willing to pay the price, using /proc/pid/smaps. Because outside of ipcs, I don't think it's possible to currently to determine the usage at all. The previous patchset [1] did introduce new shmem-specific fields into smaps output, and functions to determine the values. I take a simpler approach, noting that smaps output already has a "Swap: X kB" line, where currently X == 0 always for shmem areas. I think we can just consider this a bug and provide the proper value by consulting the radix tree, as e.g. mincore_page() does. In the patch changelog I explain why this is also not perfect (and cannot be without swapents), but still arguably much better than showing a 0. The last two patches are adapted from Jerome's patchset and provide a VmRSS breakdown to RssAnon, RssFile and RssShm in /proc/pid/status. Hugh noted that this is a welcome addition, and I agree that it might help e.g. debugging process memory usage at albeit non-zero, but still rather low cost of extra per-mm counter and some page flag checks. [1] http://lwn.net/Articles/611966/ This patch (of 6): The documentation for /proc/pid/status does not mention that the value of VmSwap counts only swapped out anonymous private pages, and not swapped out pages of the underlying shmem objects (for shmem mappings). This is not obvious, so document this limitation.

inode_nohighmem() is sufficient to make sure that page_get_link() won't try to allocate a highmem page. Moreover, it is sufficient to make sure that page_symlink/__page_symlink won't do the same thing. However, any filesystem that manually preseeds the symlink's page cache upon symlink(2) needs to make sure that the page it inserts there won't be a highmem one. Fortunately, only nfs and shmem have run afoul of that... Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> -

ConfigFS lacked binary attributes up until now. This patch introduces support for binary attributes in a somewhat similar manner of sysfs binary attributes albeit with changes that fit the configfs usage model. Problems that configfs binary attributes fix are everything that requires a binary blob as part of the configuration of a resource, such as bitstream loading for FPGAs, DTBs for dynamically created devices etc. Look at Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt for internals and howto use them. This patch is against linux-next as of today that contains Christoph's configfs rework.

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences are: * inode and dentry are passed separately * might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode; the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry. * when called that way it isn't allowed to block and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called in non-RCU mode. It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change in the next commits. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> -

Add two new flags to the existing coredump mechanism for ELF files to allow us to explicitly filter DAX mappings. This is desirable because DAX mappings, like hugetlb mappings, have the potential to be very large. Update the coredump_filter documentation in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt so that it addresses the new DAX coredump flags. Also update the documented default value of coredump_filter to be consistent with the core(5) man page. The documentation being updated talks about bit 4, Dump ELF headers, which is enabled if CONFIG_CORE_DUMP_DEFAULT_ELF_HEADERS is turned on in the kernel config. This kernel config option defaults to "y" if both ELF binaries and coredump are enabled.

There's an odd line about "Locked" at the head of the description of /proc/meminfo: it seems to have strayed from /proc/PID/smaps, so lead it back there. Move "Swap" and "SwapPss" descriptions down above it, to match the order in the file (though "PageSize"s still undescribed). The example of "Locked: 374 kB" (the same as Pss, neither Rss nor Size) is so unlikely as to be misleading: just make it 0, this is /bin/bash text; which would be "dw" (disabled write) not "de" (do not expand).

A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id, only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available such as when the root filesystem is on NFS. This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type, client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to identify itself to the server.

So the /proc/PID/stat 'wchan' field (the 30th field, which contains the absolute kernel address of the kernel function a task is blocked in) leaks absolute kernel addresses to unprivileged user-space: seq_put_decimal_ull(m, ' ', wchan); The absolute address might also leak via /proc/PID/wchan as well, if KALLSYMS is turned off or if the symbol lookup fails for some reason: static int proc_pid_wchan(struct seq_file *m, struct pid_namespace *ns, struct pid *pid, struct task_struct *task) { unsigned long wchan; char symname[KSYM_NAME_LEN]; wchan = get_wchan(task); if (lookup_symbol_name(wchan, symname) < 0) { if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ)) return 0; seq_printf(m, "%lu", wchan); } else { seq_printf(m, "%s", symname); } return 0; } This isn't ideal, because for example it trivially leaks the KASLR offset to any local attacker: fomalhaut:~> printf "%016lx\n" $(cat /proc/$$/stat | cut -d' ' -f35) ffffffff8123b380 Most real-life uses of wchan are symbolic: ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm and procps uses /proc/PID/wchan, not the absolute address in /proc/PID/stat: triton:~/tip> strace -f ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm 2>&1 | grep wchan | tail -1 open("/proc/30833/wchan", O_RDONLY) = 6 There's one compatibility quirk here: procps relies on whether the absolute value is non-zero - and we can provide that functionality by outputing "0" or "1" depending on whether the task is blocked (whether there's a wchan address). These days there appears to be very little legitimate reason user-space would be interested in the absolute address. The absolute address is mostly historic: from the days when we didn't have kallsyms and user-space procps had to do the decoding itself via the System.map. So this patch sets all numeric output to "0" or "1" and keeps only symbolic output, in /proc/PID/wchan. ( The absolute sleep address can generally still be profiled via perf, by tasks with sufficient privileges. ) Reviewed-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Acked-by: NKees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Acked-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <ryabinin.a.a@gmail.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Kostya Serebryany <kcc@google.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Cc: kasan-dev <kasan-dev@googlegroups.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150930135917.GA3285@gmail.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Without knowing this, the use of sysfs_streq() becomes puzzling. The termination happens in kernfs_fop_write(). Signed-off-by: NUlf Magnusson <ulfalizer@gmail.com> [jc: moved the new text to a different paragraph] Signed-off-by: NJonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

sysfs_dirent went away when kernfs was extracted from sysfs. The reference to the kobject now lives in a kernfs_node (in the 'priv' member).

We want to know per-process workingset size for smart memory management on userland and we use swap(ex, zram) heavily to maximize memory efficiency so workingset includes swap as well as RSS. On such system, if there are lots of shared anonymous pages, it's really hard to figure out exactly how many each process consumes memory(ie, rss + wap) if the system has lots of shared anonymous memory(e.g, android). This patch introduces SwapPss field on /proc/<pid>/smaps so we can get more exact workingset size per process. Bongkyu tested it. Result is below. 1. 50M used swap SwapTotal: 461976 kB SwapFree: 411192 kB $ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "SwapPss:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}'; 48236 $ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "Swap:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}'; 141184 2. 240M used swap SwapTotal: 461976 kB SwapFree: 216808 kB $ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "SwapPss:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}'; 230315 $ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "Swap:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}'; 1387744 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: simplify kunmap_atomic() call] Signed-off-by: NMinchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Reported-by: NBongkyu Kim <bongkyu.kim@lge.com> Tested-by: NBongkyu Kim <bongkyu.kim@lge.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky.work@gmail.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> -

This is consistent with the PMEM driver and with how this direct_access() pointer is used in the DAX code.

The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3 filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code. Acked-by: NTheodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
